Objectives of the BSI Standard Corporation
British BSi standards are non-mandatory standards that must be complied with or applied with a few exceptions. To date, BSI has developed around a thousand standards. These standards range from textile services to construction and medical devices to occupational health and safety, from information security to quality management and even environmental management.
