TENs approach to achieving ISO9001
TEN’s certification to ISO9001 is testament to our commitment in best practice in systems, processes, service and quality control. Company goals in our quality management system is inclusive of all facets of the business and we continually review and refine processes to improve internal and external delivery standards.
Outstanding commitment to a safe workplace has resulted in the TEN Group receiving AS4801 Certification in April 2012 and in October of the same year won the National Safety Council of Australia Award in the Category of 'Best Continuous Improvement of an OHS Management System'.
Regular internal and external safety inspections, hazard identifications, and risk assessments have contributed greatly to improving the safety of the workplace and in consequence, our customers. Internal safety focus has helped develop a culture that transpires to our external customer involvement. This focus on safety is a value-add in the functions of sales, hire and product development. In 2014 TEN Group also added ISO 14001 certification (Environmental).
Rebecca Langdon, TEN’s HSEQ Officer stated: “It is great to see everyone at TEN engaging in the system, from carrying out the necessary checks to reporting of non-conformances to help improve the system. The system could not operate as efficiently without TEN’s positive culture and input towards safety, quality, and environment. It is because of everyone’s continuous efforts that we are able to reach and enjoy this 20-year milestone.”
Plant and equipment supplied, hired or sold by TEN undergoes a detailed Risk Assessment (RA) by a committee of staff that includes former linesman and trainers, safety officers, sales personnel and senior management as well as peer review by senior industry professionals. Work instructions, procedures, training and supervision form part of TEN’s daily routine, much like the industry we work in.
