What is ISO 45001?
ISO 45001 is the internationally recognized assessment specification for occupational health and safety management systems. It enables organizations to manage operational risks and improve their performance. It also provides guidance on how to manage the health and safety aspects of your business activities more effectively by taking into careful consideration accident prevention, risk reduction and well-being of your employees.
