WHAT IS THE ISO 45001
HEALTH AND SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM?
An ISO 45001 Health & Safety Management System is a way of doing things which primarily protects your employees and key stakeholders from harm.
It protects employees against ill health caused or made worse by work as well as injury through accidents. It furthermore plays a critical role in ensuring that visitors to your premises, such as customers and contractors, are safe.
Improving your Health and Safety System to the level required by ISO 45001 helps you anticipate and control health and safety risks and comply with regulations. By doing so, it reduces your risk of litigation, improves productivity and gives your customers confidence.

ISO 45001 Health and Safety Management System has been designed to help you reduce these risks and their associated costs.

CAN ISO 45001 PROTECT ME AGAINST ALL HEALTH AND SAFETY INCIDENTS?
A Health and Safety management system is a way of managing the demands placed upon your business by various risks and legislation, so it can’t guarantee that you won’t have any H&S incidents. It will, however, help reduce the number of incidents and support you in proving that you take a proactive stance when it comes to protecting your staff. It also provides evidence that you have processes and procedures so you can take further action should an employee fail to follow them.
