Introduction:

ISO 45001 standard has replaced the popular OHSAS 18001 Regulations with the overall purpose remaining the improvement of occupational health and safety performance. ISO 45001 will more easily integrate with other ISO Management Systems standards including ISO 9001:2018 and ISO 14001:2018. ISO 45001 will require an organization to look beyond its immediate health and safety issues and take into account what the wider society expects of it. Organizations will have to think about their contractors and suppliers, as well as the effects their activities have on neighboring communities.
