What is ISO 45001?
ISO 45001 is an international standard that specifies requirements for an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system. It provides a framework for organizations to manage risks and improve OH&S performance.
The standard establishes criteria for an OH&S policy, objectives, planning, implementation, operation, auditing and review. Key elements include leadership commitment, worker participation, hazard identification and risk assessment, legal and regulatory compliance, emergency planning, incident investigation and continual improvement.
Why is ISO 45001 Important?
Implementing ISO 45001 provides significant value to organizations looking to reduce workplace incidents and demonstrate OH&S commitment. Benefits include:
- ISO 45001 provides an internationally recognized framework for managing occupational health and safety risks. It enables organizations to systematically assess hazards and implement risk control measures, leading to reduced workplace injuries, illnesses and incidents.
- Adopting the standard shows employees and external stakeholders that the organization is committed to worker health, safety and well-being. This boosts reputation, morale and retention.
- The standard requires complying with OH&S regulations, ensuring legal conformity. It also promotes proactive risk management, potentially lowering insurance premiums.
- By requiring emergency preparedness and response protocols, ISO 45001 strengthens organizational resilience against safety threats and crises.
- The framework of plan, do, check act means the OH&S system can continually improve and evolve, enhancing long-term worker health and safety performance.
