ABOUT US
Connecting QHSE professionals to drive sustainable Health, Safety, Quality, and Environmental excellence.

Committed to Global Standards, Empowering Professionals
The QHSE Association is an independent, non-profit Accreditation Body and global professional network dedicated to advancing Quality, Health, Safety, and Environmental (QHSE) excellence worldwide. Governed by a coalition of international industry experts, lead assessors, and regulatory compliance specialists, we empower organizations and individuals to build safer, more sustainable, and highly efficient workplaces.
Our mandate is driven by a twofold mission:
Authoritative Accreditation: We provide strict, impartial oversight to Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs), ensuring the global certifications that industries rely upon are rigorous, credible, and universally trusted.
Professional Advancement: We cultivate a thriving community of QHSE practitioners, equipping them with world-class education, strategic advocacy, and the elite resources needed to lead the future of industry safety.
Our Mission
Our mission is to establish unwavering global trust in conformity assessment through rigorous, impartial accreditation, while driving a worldwide culture of continuous improvement, proactive risk prevention, and strict regulatory compliance.
We are committed to fulfilling this mission by:
Ensuring Accreditation Integrity: Delivering robust oversight that guarantees conformity assessments are transparent, credible, and internationally respected across all industries.
Empowering the QHSE Community: Equipping global practitioners with world-class education, strategic advocacy, and the comprehensive professional support required to elevate workplace standards everywhere.


Our Vision
Our vision is to serve as the premier international accreditation authority and the definitive professional hub for global QHSE standards. We aim to unite industries, eliminate technical trade barriers, and improve lives by championing verifiable safety and quality excellence.
We strive to realize this vision by focusing on two core impact areas:
Driving Global Harmonization: Breaking down international trade barriers by ensuring conformity assessments and certifications are universally trusted, consistent, and recognized across all borders.
Championing Sustainable Development: Protecting lives and environments by making uncompromising safety, proactive risk mitigation, and operational excellence the foundation of modern global industry.
What We Do
We operate across two distinct but complementary pillars, maintaining strict structural boundaries to ensure absolute impartiality in all our accreditation decisions. By simultaneously auditing the organizations that issue certificates and empowering the practitioners working on the ground, we drive global excellence from the top down and the bottom up.
Our core operations encompass:
Global Accreditation & Oversight: We rigorously assess Certification, Personnel, and Inspection Bodies against ISO/IEC 17000 standards, granting them the authority to issue trusted global credentials. We also maintain a transparent public registry, allowing industries to verify legitimate accreditations and combat fraud.
Professional Development & Community: We equip QHSE practitioners with internationally recognized training, elite networking, and comprehensive learning resources. Through global summits, advocacy, and continuous education, we empower professionals to stay audit-ready and shape the future of workplace safety.

From Construction, Energy, and Aerospace to Healthcare, Manufacturing, and Maritime operations, we ensure rigorous standards are upheld where safety and compliance matter most.

Assessment Bodies & Regulators: We provide Certification Bodies with internationally recognized accreditation while giving regulatory agencies the verified assurance that global compliance frameworks are strictly enforced.
Industry Professionals & Corporate Leaders: We equip seasoned QHSE managers, safety officers, and organizational leaders with the elite network, credentials, and advanced resources necessary to drive continuous operational excellence.
Our Values
