The rate of workplace related deaths is very high. The burden of occupational injuries and diseases is significant, both for employers and the wider economy, resulting in losses from early retirements, staff absence and rising insurance premiums. To combat this problem, ISO has developed a new standard, ISO 45001 (Requirements for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems), helping organizations reduce this burden by providing a framework to improve employee safety, reduce workplace risks and create better, safer working conditions, all over the world.
With this standard (which replaces OHSAS 18000), organizations are able to show their customers, workers, regulators and the community that they proactively and systematically manage the health and safety of their workers. It also helps organizations to provide a safe and healthy workplace, preventing deaths, work-related injuries and illness as well as continually improving OH&S performance.
