ISO 45001, in practice.
Occupational health and safety management systems. Requirements with guidance for use.
Manufacturing, construction, utilities and any operation where the hazard is physical and the consequence of getting it wrong is a person.
The clause numbers and titles above are the standard's own public structure. The standard itself is copyright of its issuing body and you buy it from them. What we add is the interpretation underneath, and that lives in your workspace.
Every month, on a schedule you can check.
This is the running work for this standard specifically. The general shape is the same across all of them.
- Hazard identification and risk assessment records per activity
- Consultation and worker participation records
- Emergency preparedness drills with dates and participants
- Incident and near-miss investigations with root cause
- Legal compliance evaluation with the obligations examined
Each one is filed against the requirement it satisfies as the work happens, so the pack for the next visit already exists.
Standards that share the structure.
ISO 9001:2015
The quality management standard most certified organisations start with, and the one most other management system standards borrow their structure from.
ISO 22301:2019
The continuity standard, built around one question: when the thing you deliver stops, how quickly does it come back, and who decided that was fast enough.
SOC 2 (TSC 2017, rev. 2022)
Not a certification but an attestation. An independent auditor reports on whether your controls were designed properly, and for Type II, whether they operated over a period.
Name a clause in ISO 45001 and we will open it.
The requirement, the control attached to it, the evidence that satisfies it, and the audit checklist it generates. Nothing prepared in advance, because there is nothing to prepare.
