You are probably wondering, “What is ISO45001?” ISO45001 is a safety compliance framework that is used by businesses to manage safety risks in the workplace. It is based on ISO9001, which is a quality management system. ISO45001 helps businesses to create a safe and healthy work environment by identifying hazards, assessing risks, and implementing controls to reduce those risks. This makes the workplace safer for workers and also helps to prevent injuries and illnesses.

By having a clearly defined management system in place to identify and control health and safety risks, organisations are able to minimise risks to their workforce and visitors or external contractors on their premises. The standard will enable organisations to put in place processes for continually reviewing and improving occupational health and safety.

Key areas that will be assessed during certification audit:

  • Context of Organisation

  • Hazard identification, risk assessment and determining controls

  • Assessment of Risks and Opportunities

  • Legal and other requirements

  • Objectives and OHS program(s)

  • Resources, roles, responsibility, accountability and authority

  • Competence, training and awareness

  • Communication, participation and consultation

  • Operational control

  • Emergency preparedness and response

  • Performance measuring, monitoring and improvement
