ISO 45001

ISO 45001:2018 is the new International Standard for Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) designed to replace OHSAS 18001 standard. It effectively controls all occupational hazards for employees, contractors, and visitors. Helps in achieving improvements in overall health and safety performance at occupational workplaces, preventing work accidents and fatal diseases. It can be applied by all categories of organisation regardless of their subject matter, product, or product service they provide.

Why ISO 45001:2018, but not OHSAS 18001?

ISO 45001 sets to drastically improve all levels of workplace safety. It provides a clear framework for all organisation willing to improve their OH&S performance. OHSAS 18001 focuses on managing only the internal environment and deals with risk alone.
