Transition from OHSAS 18001 to ISO 45001 Training 2024

The transition from OHSAS 18001 to ISO 45001 created challenges in many companies. This course will be taking you through some of the major challenges that businesses have been facing in preparing to align to ISO 45001. Based on the recently published ISO 45001 standard, we have identified readiness measures to guide you to encounter the changes in the standard and determine its key areas of development.

Increased global trade brings new health and safety challenges which drive the need for an international OH&S management system standard to enable global benchmarking and to raise the bar for health and safety in the workplace. For this reason, ISO has developed an international standard that will be applicable to organizations of any size, sector or location.

In March 2018, ISO 45001 was published to increase global consistency and make workplaces safer and healthier for all. OHSAS 18001 will be withdrawn with the publication of ISO 45001:2018 and there will be a three-year migration period from the date of publication.

ISO 45001 will drive the development of systematic processes that consider the broader context, taking into account the risks, opportunities, legal requirements and more, which will help to embed OH&S firmly at the core of the organization to improve OH&S performance
