Implementing ISO 45001 provides significant value to organizations looking to reduce workplace incidents and demonstrate OH&S commitment. It applies to organizations of all sizes and can be integrated with other ISO management system standards. ISO 45001 utilizes the Plan-Do-Check-Act methodology to systematically manage health and safety risks. Key elements include leadership commitment, worker participation, hazard identification and risk assessment, legal and regulatory compliance, emergency planning, incident investigation and continual improvement. The standard establishes criteria for an OH&S policy, objectives, planning, implementation, operation, auditing and review.
It provides a framework for organizations to manage risks and improve OH&S performance. ISO 45001 is an international standard that specifies requirements for an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system. You can find more information about this standard and its applications in the ISO 45001 briefing note What is ISO 45001?
