ISO 45001 Certification

The ISO 45001 standard specifies requirements for an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system that allows organizations to control OH&S risks and improve performance. It does not state specific OH&S performance criteria, nor does it give detailed specifications for the design of a management system.

Key changes in the 2018 edition include:
