ISO 45001:2018(E) ForewordISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standardsbodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried outthrough ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technicalcommittee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. Internationalorganizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters ofelectrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance aredescribed in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for thedifferent types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with theeditorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject ofpatent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details ofany patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/oron the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does notconstitute an endorsement.For an explanation on the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms andexpressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to theWorld Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the followingURL: www .iso .org/ iso/ foreword .html.This document was prepared by Project Committee ISO/PC 283, Occupational health and safetymanagement systems.Licensed by NSI to NSI for internal use onlyDownloaded: 2019-10-11Single-user licence only, copying and networking prohibited.

ISO 45001:2018(E) Introduction0.1 BackgroundAn organization is responsible for the occupational health and safety of workers and others who canbe affected by its activities. This responsibility includes promoting and protecting their physical andmental health.The adoption of an OH&S management system is intended to enable an organization to provide safeand healthy workplaces, prevent work-related injury and ill health, and continually improve its OH&Sperformance.0.2 Aim of an OH&S management systemThe purpose of an OH&S management system is to provide a framework for managing OH&S risks andopportunities. The aim and intended outcomes of the OH&S management system are to prevent workrelated injury and ill health to workers and to provide safe and healthy workplaces; consequently, itis critically important for the organization to eliminate hazards and minimize OH&S risks by takingeffective preventive and protective measures.When these measures are applied by the organization through its OH&S management system, theyimprove its OH&S performance. An OH&S management system can be more effective and efficient whentaking early action to address opportunities for improvement of OH&S performance.Implementing an OH&S management system conforming to this document enables an organization tomanage its OH&S risks and improve its OH&S performance. An OH&S management system can assist anorganization to fulfil its legal requirements and other requirements.0.3 Success factorsThe implementation of an OH&S management system is a strategic and operational decision for anorganization. The success of the OH&S management system depends on leadership, commitment andparticipation from all levels and functions of the organization.The implementation and maintenance of an OH&S management system, its effectiveness and its abilityto achieve its intended outcomes are dependent on a number of key factors, which can include:a)top management leadership, commitment, responsibilities and accountability;c)communication;e)allocation of the necessary resources to maintain it;b) top management developing, leading and promoting a culture in the organization that supports theintended outcomes of the OH&S management system;d) consultation and participation of workers, and, where they exist, workers’ representatives;f)OH&S policies, which are compatible with the overall strategic objectives and direction of theorganization;g) effective process(es) for identifying hazards, controlling OH&S risks and taking advantage of OH&Sopportunities;h) continual performance evaluation and monitoring of the OH&S management system to improveOH&S performance;i)j)vi integration of the OH&S management system into the organization’s business processes;OH&S objectives that alignLicensedwith theOH&S policy and take into account the organization’s hazards,by NSI to NSI for internal use onlyOH&S risks and OH&S opportunities;Downloaded: 2019-10-11Single-user licence only, copying and networking prohibited.

ISO 45001:2018(E) k) compliance with its legal requirements and other requirements.Demonstration of successful implementation of this document can be used by an organization to giveassurance to workers and other interested parties that an effective OH&S management system is inplace. Adoption of this document, however, will not in itself guarantee prevention of work-related injuryand ill health to workers, provision of safe and healthy workplaces and improved OH&S performance.The level of detail, the complexity, the extent of documented information and the resources needed toensure the success of an organization’s OH&S management system will depend on a number of factors,such as:— the organization’s context (e.g. number of workers, size, geography, culture, legal requirements andother requirements);— the scope of the organization’s OH&S management system;— the nature of the organization’s activities and the related OH&S risks.0.4 Plan-Do-Check-Act cycleThe OH&S management system approach applied in this document is founded on the concept of PlanDo-Check-Act (PDCA).The PDCA concept is an iterative process used by organizations to achieve continual improvement. Itcan be applied to a management system and to each of its individual elements, as follows:a)Plan: determine and assess OH&S risks, OH&S opportunities and other risks and otheropportunities, establish OH&S objectives and processes necessary to deliver results in accordancewith the organization’s OH&S policy;b) Do: implement the processes as planned;c)Check: monitor and measure activities and processes with regard to the OH&S policy and OH&Sobjectives, and report the results;d) Act: take actions to continually improve the OH&S performance to achieve the intended outcomes.This document incorporates the PDCA concept into a new framework, as shown in Figure 1.Licensed by NSI to NSI for internal use onlyDownloaded: 2019-10-11Single-user licence only, copying and networking prohibited.

These requirementsinclude a high level structure, identical core text and common terms with core definitions, designed tobenefit users implementing multiple ISO management system standards.This document does not include requirements specific to other subjects, such as those for quality, socialresponsibility, environmental, security or financial management, though its elements can be aligned orintegrated with those of other management systems.This document contains requirements that can be used by an organization to implement an OH&Smanagement system and to assess conformity. An organization that wishes to demonstrate conformityto this document can do so by:— making a self-determination and self-declaration, or— seeking confirmation of its conformity by parties having an interest in the organization, such ascustomers, or— seeking confirmation of its self-declaration by a party external to the organization, or— seeking certification/registration of its OH&S management system by an external organization.Clauses 1 to 3 in this document set out the scope, normative references and terms and definitions whichapply to the use of this document, while Clauses 4 to 10 contain the requirements to be used to assessconformity to this document.
