Published in March 2018, ISO 45001 became the first global standard of its kind, giving organisations a universally accepted framework for improving employee health and safety, reducing workplace risks, and creating healthier, safer working conditions.
ISO 45001 has been prepared using “High-Level Structure”. This is intended to enhance alignment among ISO’s management system standards, and to facilitate the implementation for organisations that need to meet the requirements of several standards simultaneously, for example, the already released ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015
With its ‘top-down’ philosophy, ISO 45001 also requires management and leadership to take greater responsibility for health and safety issues.
Tens of thousands of businesses around the globe are already certified, and it is expected that over 500,000 organisations will take up the standard internationally over the next decade. Join Andy Holmes as he discusses the transition to ISO 45001.
