Our ISO 45001 Process

01

Assess Your Health & Safety Arrangements

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.

02

Build a Practical Safety 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.

03

Support Your Team Through Implementation

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.

04

Prepare for External Audit

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.
