◉ Certification Introduction
The ISO 45001 occupational health and safety management system is evolved from the OHSAS18001 occupational health and safety management system. This new standard is used to help organizations around the world ensure the health and safety of their workers.
◉ Origin of ISO 45001
The occupational health and safety management system emerged in the late 1980s. At that time, some multinational companies and large enterprises, based on the need to strengthen occupational health and safety management and reduce accident losses, began to establish self-discipline occupational health and safety management systems.
In 1996, the British Standards Institute (BSI) promulgated the "Guidelines for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems" (BS 8800); in the same year, the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) formulated the "Occupational Health and Safety Management System" guidance document. In 1997, Australia and New Zealand proposed the draft "General Guidelines for Occupational Health and Safety Management System Principles, Systems and Supporting Technologies"; DNV has formulated the "Occupational Health and Safety Management System Certification Standards".
In 1999, 13 organizations including British Standards Institution and Det Norske Veritas formulated a series of standards for occupational health and safety management system, namely "Occupational Health and Safety Management System - Specification" (OHSAS 18001) and "Occupational Health and Safety Management System - OHSAS". 18001 Implementation Guide (OHSAS 18002), which was revised and improved in 2007.
When ISO has not yet formulated relevant standards, the OHSAS 18000 series of standards have played a role in international standards to a certain extent, providing a reference for enterprises to establish occupational health and safety management systems, and have also become the main reason for enterprises to conduct internal audits and certification bodies to implement certification audits. in accordance with.
In order to prevent occupational diseases and production safety accidents more effectively, with reference to OHSAS 18001, the International Labour Organization Guidelines for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (ILO-OSH 2001) and other documents, ISO began to organize occupational health and safety management in 70 countries in 2013. Experts in the field drafted ISO 45001 to replace the OHSAS 18000 series of standards.
After several years of hard work, the final draft of ISO 45001 entered the voting stage at the end of November 2017. On March 12, 2018, ISO 45001 was officially released.
