OHRIS The Occupational Health and Risk
management system is an internationally recognised
occupational health and safety management system
certifiable in Bavaria and Saxony. The advantage of
OHRIS is that all certification documents as well as
consultations and certification are offered free of charge
by the trade supervision authorities (in Bavaria and Saxony). The idea is to
strengthen corporate self-responsibility while replacing direct oversight with
self-monitoring.
