Effective health and safety management is key to running a successful business. By implementing measures to minimize, eliminate and manage health and safety risks, a business is taking all reasonable steps to ensure the health and safety of its staff.
There can be serious consequences for a business with no health and safety policies and procedures in place, particularly if there are industry regulations requiring a certain level of health and safety management within the business.
ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety) can assist businesses with effectively managing their health and safety policies and practices. ISO 45001 lays out a framework to improve safety, minimise workplace risks and enhance health and well-being at work, enabling an organisation to improve its Occupational Health and Safety performance. It provides the minimum standard of practice to protect employees around the world.
