Case Study: DP World, UAE Region achieves ISO 45001 certification with LRQA

DP World, UAE Region achieves ISO 45001 certification with LRQA across ports and terminals

DP World, UAE Region, a major global port operator and trade enabler, sought to migrate its occupational health and safety certification from OHSAS 18001 to the new ISO 45001 standard. Their challenge was to standardize health, safety, and environmental excellence quickly across their large, complex organization to build trust with stakeholders and maintain their competitive advantage. They engaged the vendor LRQA to achieve this certification.

LRQA successfully audited DP World's wide range of assets and helped them restructure existing systems to meet the new standard's requirements. As a result, DP World became the first port operator in the Gulf Cooperation Council and Middle East to achieve ISO 45001 certification. This achievement demonstrated their commitment to worker safety, met the needs of customers seeking proof of health and safety excellence, and allowed the organization to enhance its health and safety performance by addressing risks and opportunities.
