Jump to: Benefits of Implementation With or without a formal OH&S management system, organizations have a moral and legal duty to protect workers from accidents and ill health. This next section provides an overview of a selection of positive benefits from implementation of ISO 45001. These positive benefits are not exhaustive. Adoption of the high-level structure of ‘Annex SL’ enables organizations to integrate ISO 45001 with existing ISO 9001 Quality and ISO14001 Environmental management systems. This approach has reduced the complexity of multiple clause requirements across different standards applications, saving time and resources. The standard provides a systematic approach for senior leadership to assess OH&S risk and opportunities, monitor and review safety performance and set objectives for continual improvement within the ‘context’ of organizational activities. This may include, for example, worker health promotion campaigns or the monitoring of the OH&S effects of products and services provided. Implementation is a demonstration and commitment from senior leadership to internal and external stakeholders (interested parties) of the intent to protect workers from accidents including short and long term ill health effects. Of course, this may in-turn reduce downtime, lead to reduction or prevention of worker loss time hours and potential prosecution. This commitment also provides assurances to the Board of Directors, Trustees or owners that management controls rega...

(Find out These standards provide the basis for future planning and a roadmap to implementing applied practices that meet internationally recognized standards and norms. How ISO 45001 Was Established The ISO 45001 standard was published in 2018. It followed ISO 9001 for quality and 14001 for environment. After the success of those standards, there was a recognized need for a similar benchmarking governance for occupational health and safety management systems to cover the whole of organizational activities. Some businesses implemented USA Z10 or OHSAS 18001 while others followed national or sector standard models. The need for a unified and universal standard was the subject of a protracted and detailed consultation between national and international bodies. The convened forum held detailed and frequent negotiations about the commonly agreed practices that could be accepted, implemented, and verified. In addition, there was an aspirational aspect to the Sta...
