ISO 45001 was published in March 2018, replacing BS OHSAS 18001, the internationally-applied British Standard for occupational safety and health management systems. It is risk-based and uses the familiar ‘plan-do-check-act’ approach, together with the high-level structure common to all new management system standards.
LCE Workplace Safety and an increasing number of organisations understand that good safety and health is more than a benefit to workers – it is a core business value and a cornerstone of a civilised society.
There is an increase in alignment between the various disciplines that apply and provides an opportunity for organisations applying such standards (e.g. ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001) to integrate them, if they so wish.
