Trinseo's Global Management System Certification:
Trinseo is certified under the Responsible Care Management ® (RCMS), a comprehensive framework developed by the American Chemistry Council (ACC) to promote excellence in health, safety, security, and environmental performance. This certification applies to Trinseo's scope of operations globally and underscores the company's commitment to Responsible Care® principles.
The RCMS certification is equivalent to RC14001, integrating elements of environmental management, occupational health and safety, security, and product stewardship into a single cohesive system. It aligns closely with international standards like ISO 45001, which specifically addresses occupational health and safety management systems.
While ISO 45001 focuses on ensuring a safe and healthy workplace by preventing work-related injuries and illnesses, RCMS and RC14001 extend this focus to include broader sustainability goals, environmental stewardship, product safety, and security practices. The RCMS certification verifies the company's alignment with Responsible Care core values and objectives and requires a demonstration of compliance with the Responsible Care Management System® (RCMS) Technical Specification and three codes of practice (Product Safety Code, Process Safety Code, and Security Code).
