Integrating OHSAS 18001 with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001

Currently I am in the process of developing IMS manual for my company to latest version 2015 for the scope of ISO 9001:2015,14001:2015 and OHSAS 18001:2007). The 9001:2015 and 14001:2015 does not address the need of MR. But OHSAS 18001:2007 need the MR. if i add the content about the MR as the company still require an MR to manage these activity, doe it result a conformity?

Answer:

The fact that MR (management Representative) by ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 doesn't mean it is to forbidden to have one. You can decide to keep MRs for ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 in addition to MR for OHSAS 18001, or you can just write in your IMS manual who is MR for OHSAS 18001 and what are his or her responsibilities. The only way how you can have nonconformity regarding MR is not to appoint one for OHSAS 18001.
