Abu Dhabi Occupational Safety and Health System Framework
ADOSH is a management tool that integrates Occupational Health and Safety management components of a business into one coherent system. The integration of these components allows the business to achieve its objectives efficiently by managing the impacts of various activities and minimizing workplace risks. The ADOSH-SF is a risk- and performance-based management system that defines the roles and responsibilities of all concerned parties and sets the minimum requirements required at Emirate level, including requirements for development and implementation of individual entity OSHMS for entities required to develop their internal system. It is an approach that recognizes the inter-relationships between entities, employees, contractors, the community, and the occupational environment in contributing to diverse risks.
