ISO 45001

]

Is the international standard that specifies the requirements for an occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system, with guidance for its use to enable an organisation to proactively improve its OH&S performance in preventing injury and ill health.

ISO 45001 focuses on identifying and controlling risks rather than hazards, as is currently required in OHSAS 18001. ISO 45001 requires organisations to consider how suppliers and contractors are managing their risks. In ISO 45001 some fundamental concepts are changed like the terms risk, worker and workforce.
