SIC.COVID-FREE 2020
Join the fight against coronavirus infection by implementing the COVID-19 countermeasures system
Today, the world is facing the threat of a COVID-19 pandemic caused by the SARS-Cov-2 virus. In these circumstances, maintaining the health and safety of the population is crucial. Therefore, the government has taken a number of measures aimed at slowing the spread of COVID-19, which entails extensive changes in the organization.
To ensure continuous operation in terms of the current pandemic organizations should take measures against COVID-19.
Organizations are responsible for their contribution in terms of COVID-19. This can be achieved through management’s measures to curb the spread of COVID-19.
According to Article 16th (1981) Convention on Safety and Health at Workplace (№155):»Employers must ensure that workplaces, machinery, equipment and processes are safe and do not affect on employees health.»
The new ISO/PAS 45005:2020, Occupational Health and Safety Management — General Guidelines for Safe Work during the COVID-19 Pandemic, is a response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the increased risk it poses to the health, safety and well-being of people in any conditions.
Based on the provisions of this standard, the TC/SIC (System of International Certification) technical committee has developed the SIC.COVID-FREE:2020 standard, according to which enterprises can be certified.
