A total of 43 laboratories in seven departments within the Faculty of Engineering , University of Indonesia ( FTUI ) succeeded in obtaining ISO 45001:2018 certification.
This certification is the first international standard in the world to establish requirements or guidelines for an Occupational Health and Safety Management System (SMK3).
The Dean of FTUI Prof. Dr. Heri Hermansyah in his statement in Depok, Monday, said the ISO 45001:2018 certification complements the 14001:2015 certification which was previously obtained by the 43 FTUI education and research laboratories in 2020.
Currently, FTUI is able to provide environmental safety guarantees in terms of regulations and information as well as guarantees for managing OHS risks and opportunities, creating a healthy and safe workplace, as well as protecting the organization’s most important assets and human resources.
This certification is FTUI’s commitment to provide protection to lecturers, students and departmental staff from potential hazards, especially when carrying out physical activities in the laboratory and other routine activities.
Another benefit is the increased protection of important documents and physical assets for example related to fire risk, compliance with regulations and laws on occupational health and safety (K3) and reducing costs through prevention of work accidents that can cause asset losses.
“FTUI continues to improve to move faster, work harder, have smarter strategies to continue to strengthen its increasing role at national and international levels and become one of the leading technical education institutions in the Southeast Asia region,” he said, Monday (31/1).
In anticipating changing times and global competition, FTUI continues to organize itself to become an Excellent and Impactful FTUI so that it is able to overcome global challenges in an innovative, superior, and far-sighted way.
With this certification, it is hoped that public and stakeholder trust can increase through the FTUI’s K3 policy.
In addition to ISO 45001:2018, FTUI has also been certified for several other management standards, namely the ISO 9001:2015 quality management system for the scope of all administrative activities in departments and fields/work units in 2015 and recertification in 2019.
Next is the ISO 14001:2015 environmental management system for the scope of all education and research laboratories in 7 departments by 2020, as well as the ISO 17025 laboratory management system for the Materials Testing Laboratory of the Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering and the Environmental Testing Laboratory of the Department of Civil Engineering.
