ISO 45001:2018 (OH&S)

Occupational Health and Safety Management System

During the mid-seventies, health and safety laws were introduced to help manage and reduce the number of accidents, illness and more importantly deaths within the workplace. Companies around the U.K adopted OHSAS 18001 which helped them maintain and manage their health and safety management systems in a structured manner. The introduction of ISO 45001:2018 (OH&S) provides a more enhanced and robust framework for their health and safety management system.

ISO 45001:2018 (OH&S) provides an enhanced and robust framework for your health and safety management system.

WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?

Top management are to determine their OH&S objectives and strategic plan for the business. It is essential that your team are committed to implementing an effective QMS as everyone will be pivotal to success. With your implementation team, and support from Clear Quality, you will create a quality manual in line with your OH&S business objectives. Documented procedures and records required will be created to control an effective quality management system bespoke to your scope of services:

  • A documented system will be created to control approval, distribution, revision, and storage. These should be easy to operate and follow, yet sufficient to meet the requirements of the ISO 45001:2018 (OH&S) standards.
  • You will demonstrate a clear process and set of procedures to ensure compliance is consistent.
  • OH&S Objectives and targets will be documented and consistent with the business strategic direction, including continual improvement and risk-based thinking.
  • Relevant documentation should be made easily available and useable in either print or electronic version and communicated throughout your business.
  • Throughout the process, internal audits will take place to confirm process effectiveness and compliance to the international standards.
  • Continual improvement of the effectiveness of the QMS must be followed on a continuous basis to confirm suitability.
