ISO 45001:2018 3 Minutes

ISO 45001 is an International Standard that specifies requirements for an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system, with guidance for its use, to enable an organization to proactively improve its OH&S performance in preventing injury and ill-health. ISO 45001 is intended to apply to any organization regardless of its size, type, and nature. ISO 45001 enables an organization, through its OH&S management system, to integrate other aspects of health and safety, such as worker wellness/well-being; however, it should be noted that an organization can be required by applicable legal requirements to also address such issues.

It provides a framework for organizations to instigate proper and effective management of health & safety in the workplace. By having a clearly defined management system in place to identify and control health and safety risks, organizations can minimize risks to their workforce and visitors or external contractors on their premises. The standard will enable organizations to put in place processes for continually reviewing and improving occupational health and safety.

Key areas that will be assessed by OH&S MS certification

  • Management systems in place
  • Planning and risk assessment
  • Staff training and awareness
  • Communication of safety management systems
  • Response to emergencies
  • Monitoring and continual improvement

It helps in achieving a structured health and safety management system throughout the organization and will demonstrate your commitment to the welfare of your staff and external parties. It will provide a framework to implement the ISO 45001 requirements and a process for continual improvement.  ISO 45001 is suitable for all types of an organization wanting to become more efficient in managing and reducing accidents in the workplace.

By setting up systems that are assessed by a third-party certification body, organizations will prove to their staff, suppliers, and customers that they take health and safety seriously. ISO 45001 accreditation provides a framework to help organizations meet their legal obligations to Health and Safety in the workplace.
