What is 45001?
The global standard for occupational health and safety, ISO 45001 provides a framework that can be adapted for organisations of all size, type and sector to refine health and safety processes, policies and procedures with practical solutions for a safer, healthier and happier workplace for all.
ISO 45001 turns the tables on reactive processes and instead shifts to a proactive approach that focuses heavily on the identification of potential issues and resolving them before they have the chance to cause a problem. This reduces the likelihood of accidents, injuries and work-related illnesses even occurring which not only ensures a safer workplace for employees, but the benefits can be seen throughout the organisation from staff and customers through to stakeholders.
