DIN SPEC 91020: The Health of Your Employees is a success factor
When you manage an organization or an enterprise, you are responsible for your employees. Corporate health management promotes and ensures that the health of your staff members is maintained in the long run. Given the backdrop of demographic change, inevitably leading to a higher average age of your employees, health management becomes particularly important for any organization, large or small, of any business sector. We offer certifications according to DIN SPEC 91020 in two possible stages. As an alternative, there are also process audits to provide orientation at the start. Use them to determine just how far you have already implemented the requirements of DIN SPEC 91020.
Turn Issues into Action
You aim to control and integrate the structures and processes of your organization in such as a way as to ensure a healthy work environment, which also promotes performance.The various issues of corporate health management can basically be assigned to the areas of occupational health and safety (e.g. work environment, equipment, and processes), workplace health promotion (e.g. nutrition, physical exercise, stress management), and to your management style.You measure the success of health management by your employees. Basically, increased job satisfaction results in lower rates of absenteeism for reasons of health, leads to stronger motivation, and improved work quality and productivity. In turn, these factors have a positive effect on your corporate success. A situation, therefore, that is to the advantage of both parties!Represented by Katrin Schiller, Product Manager for Health and Social Systems, DQS has actively participated in the development of the requirements of DIN SPEC 91020.
Here’s how it works
We certify your health management system in two possible stages. Stage 1 includes selected key questions from DIN SPEC 91020. By fulfilling these core requirements, your organization already demonstrates the initial systematics of a corporate health management system. Stage 2 includes a comprehensive certification according to DIN SPEC 91020.
As an alternative to certification, you may want to have a process audit conducted as a first step. This helps to determine what you still need to do in order to fulfill the requirements of DIN SPEC 91020.
Another major advantage is that the structure of DIN SPEC 91020 is similar to that of ISO 9001. For this reason, it can be integrated well into your existing management systems.
