Standards
This standard outlines a code of safety for chemical laboratories.
This Code of Practice specifies managerial requirements necessary to ensure the efficient running of any restaurant establishment which seeks to ensure quality in the sight of its customers. With the application of this standard the following is expected: (a) that management of a restaurant shall be made aware of their responsibilities with regard to efficient practices in the restaurant service; (b) that customer satisfaction shall be made the ultimate goal in such an establishment; (c) high productivity for the restaurant service; and (d) that the service shall be made more competitive at local and international levels. This standard does not apply to institutional food services, such as school feeding programmed; and to food vans or vendors, in which food is sold from a vehicle or carts on the road side.
This standard gives recommendations on the serviceability of buildings against vibrations. It covers three recipients of vibrations: a) human occupancy in buildings and on pedestrian bridges; b) the contents of the building; c) the structure of the building. It applies to buildings, pedestrian bridges and walkways found within buildings or connecting them and does not include bridges that carry vehicular traffic, nor the design of foundations or supporting structures of machinery.
This Japanese Standard specifies the seat belt assembles for automobiles, hereinafter referred to as the “Seat belt” to accommodate one adult and to be fitted principally to forward facing seat for the purpose of protecting the wearer from injury in the event of a traffic accident.
This standard specifies the general requirements for a laboratory safety management system, which will enable a laboratory to formulate a policy and objectives, taking into account legislative requirements and information about significant risks, which the laboratory can control and over which it can be expected to have an influence, to protect its employees and others, whose health and safety may be affected by the activities of the laboratory. In addition this standard specifies specific requirements for medical laboratories. This standard is applicable to any laboratory that wishes to: (a) implement, maintain and improve an Occupational Safety and Health Management System; (b) assure itself of its conformance with its stated safety policy; and (c) make s self-determination and self –declaration of conformance with this standard.
This international standard specifies requirements for quality and competence in medical laboratories. It can be used by medical laboratories in developing their quality management systems and assessing their own competence. It can also be used for confirming or recognizing the competence of medical laboratories by laboratory customers, regulating authorities and accreditation bodies.
This International Standard specifies requirements for safe practices in the medical laboratory.
This code of practice gives recommendations and guidance on the use of IRATA International rope access methods, including training, to provide a safe system of work. It is intended for use by IRATA International members, IRATA International rope access technicians, national or regional enforcement agencies, safety officers and those who commission rope access work, e.g. building contractors; multi-national oil and gas companies; the renewable energy sector. This code of practice is applicable to the use of IRATA International rope access methods for industrial purposes, i.e. for access to buildings, other structures (on or offshore) or natural features, such as cliff faces, where ropes are used as the primary means of access, egress or support and as the primary means of protection against a fall. This code of practice is not intended to apply to the use of rope-based access methods for leisure activities, arboriculture, general steeplejack methods or emergency personal evacuation systems, or to the use of rope-based access (line rescue) techniques by fire brigades and other emergency services for rescue work or for rescue training. NOTE Throughout this code of practice, the term rope access is intended to mean rope access for industrial purposes, unless otherwise stated.
