ISO 45001 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system. An OH&S management system is a framework that helps organisations manage their OH&S risks and improve their OH&S performance.

Benefits of implementing ISO 45001 include:

• Reduced occupational injuries and diseases
• Greater compliance with OH&S regulations
• Better efficiency and cost savings
• Enhanced reputation and brand image

ISO 45001 is a voluntary standard, but many organisations choose to take the step of becoming certified to ISO 45001 by a professional body. Certification demonstrates to customers, suppliers and other stakeholders that the organisation is committed to OH&S.

Key concepts of ISO 45001 include:

• Risk assessment to identify and evaluate OH&S risks
• Control measures resulting in actions taken to reduce OH&S risks
• Monitoring and measurement to track and evaluate the effectiveness of the OH&S management system
• Continual improvement of the OH&S management system.
