What is ISO 45001:2018?

ISO 45001:2018 is the latest edition of the internationally recognised standard for implementing an effective OH&S management system. The standard provides a framework for utilising the system – from risk assessment and reporting to training and employee engagement – resulting in safe working environments.

It is designed for all types and sizes of organisations – from SMEs and corporates to non-profits and charities – regardless of industry sector or activities.

The standard supports organisational efforts to eliminate workplace hazards and comply with health and safety regulations such as the HASAWA 1974. It supports outcomes including improved worker health and wellbeing, lowers costs associated with operational downtime, and improves standing and reputation with existing and new customers.
