Requirements

No prior knowledge is required, but familiarity with management system standards and occupational health & safety concepts can be helpful

Description

ISO 45001 is the international standard for occupational health and safety management systems (OHSMS) — the globally recognized framework for protecting workers, preventing accidents and work-related illness, and improving safety performance in any organization, in any industry.

Every organization bears the responsibility to protect its workforce — a principle that is universally acknowledged and legally mandated in most countries. An effective OHSMS enables the organization to manage its health and safety hazards and risks, ensure legal compliance, and continually improve workplace safety.

This course offers an in-depth exploration of the requirements of ISO 45001, giving you a thorough understanding of how to implement and continually improve an occupational health and safety management system — and it draws on ISO 45002 (the implementation guidelines for OHS management systems) and Amendment 1 to ISO 45001 on climate action, so you get the standard's current, complete picture.

Course structure

The course begins with the essential concepts, the key elements of an OHSMS, and the standards governing occupational health and safety management. It then follows the requirements of ISO 45001:

The context of the organization — stakeholders, their needs and expectations, and the scope of the management system
The occupational health and safety policy and the requirements for top management and leadership
Worker consultation and participation — the processes that distinguish ISO 45001 from every other management system standard
Hazard identification and the assessment of health and safety risks
OHS objectives and planning for their achievement
Competence, awareness and communication
The documentation that supports the OHS management system
Controlling OHS hazards and risks — the hierarchy of controls in practice
Procurement, contractors and emergency preparedness

Management review
Managing incidents and nonconformities — including incident investigation
