Certified organizations have a transition period that ends on September 30, 2029. However, delaying the transition may lead to auditor scheduling bottlenecks and increase the risk of a temporary lapse in certification.
The revised standard requires greater involvement from top management, formally separates risk and opportunity management plans, incorporates climate considerations into the organization's context, and provides greater support for remote and hybrid work models.
The new standard recognizes the role of digital technologies in maintaining compliance. Management software eliminates the need for manual spreadsheets, automates document control, streamlines audits, and ensures information security.
