ISO 45001:2018 is a globally accepted standard designed to help organizations create a safe, healthy, and secure working environment. It provides a practical framework to identify workplace hazards, control risks, and prevent occupational injuries, illnesses, and accidents. By focusing on proactive risk management, the standard supports long-term employee well-being and organizational sustainability.
ISO 45001 has replaced OHSAS 18001 and follows the Annex SL structure, allowing seamless integration with other ISO management systems such as ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. This integrated approach helps organizations manage quality, environmental, and health & safety responsibilities more effectively under a unified system.
Achieving ISO 45001 certification demonstrates an organization’s strong commitment to employee safety and legal compliance. It enhances trust among employees, clients, and stakeholders while strengthening the organization’s reputation in domestic and international markets. Certified organizations also benefit from improved operational control, reduced workplace disruptions, and stronger business continuity.
