ISO 45001
Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS)

Health Safety & Environment

ISO 45001 - Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS) is intended for use by any organization, regardless of its size or the nature of its work, and can be integrated into other health and safety programmes such as worker wellness and well being. It can assist an organization to fulfill its legal requirements

This standard brings occupational health and safety management and continual improvement into the heart of an organization. This new standard is an opportunity for organizations to align their strategic direction with their OH&S management system. In addition, there is an increased focus on improving occupational health and safety performance.

In addition, a previous announcement has been made by BSI (British Standards Institute), that the OHSAS 18001 (OHSMS) Standard will be withdrawn on publication of ISO 45001 and organizations currently certified to OHSAS 18001 will have a three-year period to migrate to ISO 45001.
