ISO 45001:2018 specifies requirements for an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system, and gives guidance for its use, to enable organizations to provide safe and healthy workplaces by preventing work-related injury and ill health, as well as by proactively improving its OH&S performance.

ISO 45001 ensures your organization has a management system in place to reduce health & safety risks within the workplace – protecting workers from potential harm and increasing profitability at the same time. Other benefits of ISO 45001 include:

• Reduced overall costs of incidents.
• Reduced risk of downtime and the costs of disruption to operations.
• Reduced absences and employee turnover rate.
• Improved ability to respond to legal and compliance requirements.
• Recognition for achieving an international benchmark.
• Continual improvement of OH&S performance.
• Demonstrate corporate responsibility and meet supply chain requirements.
• Motivate and engage staff in consultation and participation.
• Protect brand reputation.
