Electronic Recyclers International (ERI) reports that it has received official letters of registration and certification from independent auditor QMI-SAI Global indicating that ERI’s Indianapolis, Ind., location is officially a certified ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 facility.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) sets global standards for business, government and society. The ISO 14001 certification addresses environmental management. Receiving approval in this area indicates that ERI has successfully met or exceeded international standards in the areas of minimizing harmful effects on the environment caused by its activities, and has achieved evidence of continual improvement of its environmental performance.
The OHSAS 18001 certification is an Occupation Health and Safety Assessment Standard for health and safety management systems. It is intended to help organizations control occupational health and safety risks. It was developed in response to widespread demand for a recognized standard against which to be certified and assessed.
