ISO 45001:2018 Implementation (OHSAS) Training Course

Aligning Safety with Strategy

Expand All

Organisations across all industries are under increasing pressure to prioritise employee health & safety while meeting legal obligations. ISO 45001:2018 offers a structured framework for improving occupational health and safety, replacing the previous OHSAS 18001 standard.

This one-day course introduces participants to the structure, terminology and key requirements of ISO 45001. The standard follows the Annex SL format, a universal framework that standardises structure, core text and terminology across all ISO management system standards. This alignment simplifies integration with other systems and ensures consistency in implementation across various disciplines. Learners will gain clarity on how to implement a health and safety management system (OH&SMS) that aligns with both legal and strategic goals.

This course provides a step-by-step guide to implementing ISO 45001 in line with current best practices and statutory requirements.

Key topics include:

Evolution of OH&S systems and comparison to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 management systems
IMS and integration with ISO 9001/14001
Implementation of ISO 45001 requirements specific to OH&S management systems
Organisational context and stakeholder needs
Leadership, H&S policy and OH&S objectives
Hazard Identification and risk assessment
Operational control and outsourced services
Emergency preparedness and incident response
Certification process overview
Documentation examples and templates

The course emphasises practical implementation and can be tailored for In-Company delivery.

Suitable roles include:

Health and Safety Officers and Managers
Technical Managers
