ISO 45001 is the internationally recognised standard for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems. It provides a structured framework for identifying workplace hazards, managing OH&S risks and opportunities, meeting applicable requirements and preventing work-related injury and ill health. Independent ISO 45001 certification demonstrates that an organisation’s management system has been assessed against the requirements of the standard.
Why Choose ISO 45001?
Employee Safety: Implementing ISO 45001 demonstrates your commitment to the safety and well-being of your employees. It helps identify and mitigate potential hazards, reducing the risk of accidents, injuries, and occupational illnesses.
Regulatory Compliance: ISO 45001 ensures that your organisation meets legal and regulatory requirements related to occupational health and safety. It helps you proactively manage compliance, minimising the risk of penalties or legal issues.
We begin by reviewing your current health and safety processes, risk controls, documentation and legal responsibilities. This helps identify any gaps and gives your organisation a clear starting point for building an ISO 45001 occupational health and safety management system.
We work with you to develop the policies, procedures and records needed to support ISO 45001. The aim is to create a health and safety management system that protects people, supports compliance and fits how your business actually operates.
We help your team put the system into practice through guidance, awareness and preparation. This may include reviewing risk assessments, incident processes, responsibilities and internal checks so your organisation feels confident ahead of certification.
Critical Path can support you up to certification readiness, but we do not audit or certify our own work. The final ISO 45001 audit must be completed by an external body, and we can point you towards trusted UKAS or non-UKAS certification providers.
