What is ISO 45001?

ISO 45001:2018 is the international standard for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (OHSMS). It has replaced OHSAS 18001.

By implementing the standard, you can protect the health, safety and wellbeing of your employees, visitors and anyone affected by your organization’s activities. It’s also an excellent way to establish legal compliance.

Putting an occupational health and safety management system in place is more important than ever. Senior managers are now held personally responsible for health and safety in their organizations. In addition, new sentencing guidelines introduced in 2016 have resulted in harsher punishment for failures.

The standard provides protection for you, your employees and your organization. It’s the best way of managing risk, avoiding fines and reducing employee absence. It all adds up to better business performance.
