ISO 45001 – Health & Safety
Protect your people, prevent work-related injury and ill health, and meet your legal health and safety obligations.
What is ISO 45001?
ISO 45001 is the international standard for occupational health and safety (OH&S) management systems. It helps organisations provide safe and healthy workplaces by identifying hazards, assessing and controlling risks, and involving workers in improving safety.
The current edition is ISO 45001:2018, together with its 2024 amendment, which asks organisations to consider whether climate change is relevant to their health and safety risks. The standard applies to any organisation, from offices and hotels to construction sites and factories.
