ISO accreditation – annual audit
We have the auditors in this week checking that our integrated management system remains compliant. This is two full days of review where all our systems and processes are sample checked for conforming to the standards.
This year, we have incorporated the new standards for our quality and environmental management. So the auditors will be assessing our compliance to the following standards:
ISO 9001:2015
ISO 14001:2015
OHSAS 18001:2007
Having completed our internal audit recently, we’re all feeling confident! Fingers crossed it goes smoothly.
Finalist for prestigious Brighton and Hove Business Awards
Great news for us this week as we found out we are finalists in the annual Brighton and Hove Business Awards, aka The BAHBAS.
We’re shortlisted for The Green Business Award. The criteria for this award is for businesses in Brighton and Hove that have demonstrated a commitment to help the city become a greener place. Well that’s what we do! And what we’ve done since 2007.
The Green Mop team are very proud to be on the shortlist with two other fantastic green businesses. The Big Lemon, who we’ve long admired for their exceptional green credentials for bussing people around, and Recharge Cargo, who use the greenest of transportation for delivery services.
We’re glad we’re up against two other original and leading green businesses.
Thank you to the judges and BAHBAS team for including us on the shortlist, it’s a real moral booster for all the Green Moppers.
ISO Audit
We’ve had a busy week here at Green Mop HQ as we had our annual ISO audit.
The auditor was Martin, and he was here for a day to check our processes and procedures are still worthy of the ISO certification.
It was a long day with Martin going through all aspects of our business to verify that we are meeting the required standards for our Quality, Environmental and Health & Safety management.
Luckily, he’s a lovely chap and we had a good day. We find his observations help us improve. The process a very positive one as it’s an opportunity to take a step back and look at all aspects of our service.
I’m looking forward to the results of his audit!
OHSAS 18001: 2007 Occupational Health and Safety Management
The health and safety of our staff, our customers and their visitors is of the highest importance. For that reason, we wanted to demonstrate our commitment to the welfare of our staff and external parties.
The OHSAS 18001 certification process provided a framework for us to instigate proper and effective management of health & safety in the workplace. By having a clearly defined management system in place to identify and control health and safety risks, we are able to minimise risks by having processes for continually reviewing and improving occupational health and safety.
The certification process means that we have had all our processes audited by an accredited external auditor. We are extremely proud to have achieved this accreditation.
ISO 9001: 2008 Quality Management System
Ensuring that Green Mop continues to provide a consistent, high quality service to our customers has always been the cornerstone of our business.
Implementing an effective and robust Quality Management System has helped us to focus on the important areas of your business and improve efficiency. Continual monitoring, measuring and management of quality and satisfaction will improve your customer acquisition and retention.
ISO 9001 accreditation is the world’s most widely recognised quality management standard. Achieving the standard demonstrates our professional approach to customer satisfaction.
The certification process means that we have had all our processes audited by an accredited external auditor. We are extremely proud to have achieved this accreditation.
ISO 14001: 2004 Environmental Management Standard
As we have always been a ‘green’ business, achieving an internationally recognised accreditation for our Environmental Management was important to us. It underlines our commitment to minimising the impact of our business on the environment.
Implementing the ISO 14001 standard means that we are able to monitor and reduce harmful effects on the environment, and provide evidence of continual improvement.
The certification process means that we have had all our processes audited by an accredited external auditor. We are extremely proud to have achieved this accreditation.
We did it! ISO 9001, 14001 and OHSAS 18001 accreditation
We are very happy to announce that we have achieved ISO standards for Quality Management, Environmental Management and Occupational Health and Safety. We started the process in April, and were finally award certification today.
This is a huge achievement for the Green Mop team, who have worked hard to reach the standard required. This demonstrates our ongoing commitment to providing a professional service to our valued customers.
We’ll write blogs with a bit more detail of what each ISO accreditation means to us as a business, and the benefits to our customers.
We just need to put up our three shiny new certificates!
