Ministry of Culture awarded ISO certification for integrated management
Ministry of Culture, Youth and Community Management has been awarded the Integrated ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certificates.
ISO 9001 is a certification for quality management, while ISO 14001 is given for meeting standards of environmental standard systems. OHSAS 18001 certification for Health and Safety standards has been developed to be compatible with the ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 management systems standards. Each of these standards has their own requirements.
The Ministry of Culture becomes the first government institution in UAE to obtain ISO's integrated certification in a single instalment. The ministry also obtained the certification in its first attempt.
The award is considered a testimony for the ministry's dedicated efforts to develop the governance performance. The ministry had embarked upon an eighteen-month long concerted work to improve the standards in every aspect of its functioning.
Executive Director for institutional services and support at the Ministry Afra Al Sabri said that the certification testifies the capability of this sector to develop within a relatively shorter period of time. The Ministry of Culture, Youth and Community Development is the first federal ministry in UAE to obtain the certification for integrated management, she noted.
