What is ISO 45001?

ISO 45001 is an international standard that sets out the requirements for an occupational health and safety management system (OH&SMS). The standard was developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and was published in 2018. The main objective of the ISO 45001 standard is to help organizations provide a safe and healthy workplace for their employees and other stakeholders.

ISO 45001: Why is it Important?

Over 2.78 million people die every year from occupational accidents or work-related diseases. Additionally, there are some 374 million non-fatal work-related injuries that result in more than four days of missed work each year.

As a result, creating a safe workplace is essential for companies.

ISO 45001 mitigates factors that have the potential to harm employees and businesses. It can also help in enhancing and improving OH&S’s performance, achieving its objectives and fulfilling legal and other requirements. ISO 45001 can be implemented along with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, which are similar due to their focus on environmental and quality management.
