QSERC are excited to be looking for our next Lead Auditors!! With our continued growth within North Queensland and throughout Australia we are looking to grow our team.

To find out details on the position of Lead Auditor and to be considered for the role - click on the seek link below.

Lead Auditors Job in Northern QLD We are a JAS-ANZ accredited certification body based in Townsville, North Queensland delivering industry-leading certification, conformity, and compliance auditing services across all industry sectors throughout Australia and internationally in the following standards;

The new International Standard for Safety Management systems, ISO 45001:2018, is set to replace AS/NZS 4801:2001. AS/NZS 4801:2001 is still a legislated requirement of some businesses in Australia and will remain in force until this legislation is revoked by State Governments in the coming years, at this stage the set expiry date has been extended to 13/07/2023.

ISO 45001:2018 follows the same structure as ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015, this means that it is easier than ever to develop your integrated management system that meets certification requirements. Key differences include:

· Senior Management are now responsible for 13 responsibilities previously allocated to the Management Representative in AS/NZS 4801:2001.

· Businesses will need to include documented procedures for topics such as management and training.

· Organisations need to make additional commitments in their health and safety policy. One of the changes includes a commitment to eliminating all hazards and reducing OH&S risks.

· Organisations need to identify risks and opportunities related to the making, operating, and maintaining the management system

· Businesses are responsible for extending workplace health and safety procedures for contractors and other parties

There are instances where AS/NZS 4801:2001 is still called up in legislation/regulation and it will continue to be recognised for those schemes. As a courtesy to our clients, we will keep AS/NZS 4801:2001 until it expires at no additional cost once migrated over to ISO 45001:2018.

For more information, please leave a comment below, email us at [email protected] or call our team on 1300 472 378.

A special thanks to Jared Morkel, Adrian Down, Simon Millard and Abhiney Arora for presenting this morning at the Defence Industry Breakfast hosted by the Department of State Development, Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning.

These events play an important role in supporting and connecting local businesses with key developments in our region and it was great to see so many in attendance.

The effective management of health and safety within your workplace is a legal requirement and is the right thing to do by your workforce. Having an ISO Certified Management system in place achieves this by implementing a systematic structure to your OH&S scheme. ISO 45001:2018 is the new international standard for occupational health and safety and has the ability to accomplish a happier and safer working environment, as well as appealing to a broad range of prospective clients and employees.

ISO 45001 not only gives your organisation peace of mind that you are meeting the requirements of the standard, but opens the door to multiple worthwhile benefits such as:

· Focuses on employee safety

· Reduces risk

· Demonstrates a commitment to safety

· Boosts your position as an industry leader

· Increases stakeholder confidence

Big thank you to JCU: College of Business, Law and Governance for providing everyone with free coffee at yesterdays Chamber Coffee event!

It was great attending Townsville Chamber of Commerce's 'Chamber on Tap' event and hearing Jonathan Pavetto speak about 'The Economics of Going Local'.

ISO 14001 helps organisations enhance environmental performance through efficient use of resources and supports the reduction of waste, thus gaining a competitive advantage and the trust of your workforce and stakeholders. ISO 14001 can benefit your organisation in many ways including:

· Improves company reputation by demonstrating your commitment to environmental sustainability

· Reduce pollution through improving your environmental performance

· Minimise risks of legislative non-compliance

· Improved knowledge in the management of current and future environmental impacts

Achieving ISO 9001:2015 is much more than implementing a set of processes, ISO 9001 aims to deliver a practical and useful quality management system to improve customer satisfaction and efficiency. ISO 9001 allows both your organisation and customers to reap the benefits through improved quality of products and services, as well as increasing consistency and efficiency within your workplace.

Some of the benefits to your organisation and customers include:
• Provides the workforce with effective management processes
• Tendering benefits
• Global recognition of your organisation’s commitment to Quality Assurance
• More reliable production scheduling and delivery
• Business continuity where key persons move on

If you are wanting to learn more about the benefits of achieving ISO 9001, please leave a comment below, email us at [email protected] or call our team on 1300 472 378 for more information.

There are numerous reasons why you should consider having your business management systems certified to one or more International Standards. Not only can you achieve international recognition, but you are also able to minimise risk, increase profit and stand out on tenders. Other benefits also include the following:

· Satisfy customer requirements

· Improve quality of processes/products

· Improve consistency

If you wish to find out more on why to get certified, please feel free send us an email at [email protected] or give us a call on 1300 472 378.

ISO Certification delivers the requirements of standardisation for management systems, processes and procedures. ISO (International Organisation of Standardisation) are an independent international organisation that develops standards in quality, safety, environmental and information security to ensure the effectiveness of products, services and systems are maintained.

At QSERC we like to describe ISO Certification as your stamp of approval from a 3rd party JAS-ANZ accredited body for your management systems. Accomplishing ISO certification is important for gaining recognition for your management systems, as well as having the capability to support growth within your business.

If you are looking at getting certified, QSERC are here to help you on your journey to achieving certification. Send us an email at [email protected] or give us a call on 1300 472 378.
