The Transition of OHSAS 18001 to ISO 45001 for a Safe Work Environment

We all knows that how important ISO standards are. They are a set of guidelines and strategic tools which help the businesses in improving the systems and its processes ensures the compatibility of products and services & reduces the impact of the business's activities on the environment. In short, the management system standards help in cost cutting, increasing customer satisfaction, access to new markets, creating a better environment.  

Thus, we can say that ISO standards are an essential part of business organizations. Recently a management system standard 'OHSAS 18001' is changed and it is transited into ISO 45001 standard. OHSAS 18001 was an Occupational Health and Safety Management System Standard. But in the year 2016, the OHSAS 18001 was made subject to change because of some errors. The committee drafters drafted another standard named ISO 45001 in the place of OHSAS 18001.

ISO 45001 is intended for use by any organization, regardless of its size or the nature of its work, and can be integrated into other health and safety programs such as worker wellness and well being. 

An ISO 45001 is beneficial in a number of ways such as:

• Reduce work-related injuries, ill health, and death in an organization. 
• It eliminates or minimizes Occupational Health &Safety risks.
• It helps in the improvement of OH&S performance and its effectiveness.
• It demonstrates corporate responsibility and meets supply chain requirements.
• Improves brand reputation.
• Ensures motivation and engagement of staff through positive consultation and free participation.

ISO 45001 is expected to come in October 2016 but organizations can prepare themselves in advance.
