A Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) is a set of policies, processes and procedures required for planning and execution (production/development/service) in the core business area of an organization (i.e., areas that can impact the organization’s ability to meet customer requirements). ISO 45001 is an example of a Occupational Health & Safety Management System.

The Concept of Occupational Health & Safety Management

By effectively implementing ISO 45001 a company can:

• Reduce work-related accidents and diseases
• Improve business performance (by reducing the direct and indirect costs associated with accidents and work-related illnesses)
• Establish a responsible image
• Comply with applicable legislation
• Promote a culture of positivity among the workers in the organization
