The ISO 45001 standard details requirements for Occupational Health & Safety management systems and the aim of this standard is to help organisations formally implement and maintain a management system for the effective management of all work related Health & Safety.
The current version of the standard, ISO 45001:2018, is structured following Annex SL and therefore the clauses are very similar to the structure of ISO 9001:2015 and other Annex SL standards. The standard requires a clearly defined organisational structure with roles and responsibilities defined with the involvement and commitment from top management. Other requirements of this standard are that documented information is controlled, risks and opportunities are considered and that actions to address risks and opportunities are identified and managed.
Meeting the requirements of this standard
The management system required to meet this standard will be dependent on the organisation and operational activities undertaken. A register of all applicable Health & Safety legislation should be maintained with evidence of compliance for all applicable legislation. As well as completing risk assessments and retaining documented evidence of this there are also requirements to have documented evidence for various things like Management Review, Internal Audits and a Health & Safety Policy.
If you want hands-on help preparing your management system we can introduce you to a consultant from our network of approved ISO consultants. If you would rather set the system up in house, the alphaZ ISO 45001 toolkit gives you the policies, procedures and registers to build it from, and access to the alphaZ documents is included free when you certify with us.
If you would like further information about this standard, the ISO 45001 section of the isomanaged.com knowledge base goes through the standard clause by clause in plain language, setting out what each requirement means in practice and what you need to have in place.
