The ISO 45001 standard details the requirements for Occupational Health and Safety management systems. We will work with you to develop and implement the necessary Health and Safety management systems and attain ISO 45001 certification.
The current version of the ISO 45001 standard is similar in structure to the 9001 and 14001 standards. It also requires organisations to communicate that they have a defined structure with clear roles and responsibilities for individuals. Additionally, organisations must demonstrate that documented information is controlled, that risks and opportunities are considered and that actions to address these are identified and implemented. The 45001 standard emphasises a focus on assessing risk, particularly throughout the production and management of relevant documentation.
Meeting the requirements of this standard
The management system required to meet this standard will be dependent on the organisation and the operational activities that it undertakes. A register of all applicable health and safety legislation should be maintained with evidence of compliance. In addition, compliant organisations must complete risk assessments and must retain documented evidence in support this. Furthermore, organisation must also produce documented evidence to produce and support their management review, internal audits and a health a safety policy.
ISO Assured can assist with the preparation of management systems to meet the requirements of this standard. Please visit our ISO Consultancy page for details on our onsite and remote consultancy services. The page also contains details of how our alpha-Z documents package can help you meet the requirements of this standard.
