ISO 45001 will be a voluntary standard that is not legally binding but aims to help organisations manage their OHS risks and improve their performance to make people safer and healthier whilst at the same time improving efficiencies throughout the business by having a structured approach to H&S management that relies on employee involvement and buy-in. Certification will help organisations to demonstrate that they have a robust OHS system in place and will recognise that they have achieved an international benchmark – which will boost their reputation to customers and employees alike. Other benefits include:

• A robust system to comply with OH&S legislation and standards;
• Fewer accidents mean less absenteeism, lower employee turnover rates and better morale;
• Development of a dynamic SHE system that is beneficial to bottom line performance;
• Reduced disruption to operations in terms of time and cost.
