WHAT IS ISO 45001CERTIFICATION (OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM)?
ISO 45001 certification is an international standard that specifies requirements for an occupational health and safety management system (OHSMS)
The ISO 45001 is an updated edition of the previous occupational health and safety (OHS) standard, known as OHSAS 18001 certification.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) established ISO 45001 to replace OHSAS 18001, as it shares a common foundation with other general management systems such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 27001, making it easy to integrate with different standards.
Organizations that are already certified with OHSAS 18001:2007 are in the process of transitioning to the ISO 45001:2018 Standard. The International Accreditation Forum (IAF) has created and released the migration requirements for switching certification from OHSAS 18001:2007 to ISO 45001:2018 Standard.
