ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OH&S MS) is an internationally recognized standard that helps organizations systematically manage occupational health and safety risks, prevent work-related injuries and ill health, and continually improve workplace safety performance.
Proks Certification is a TÜRKAK-accredited management systems certification body with over 20 years of industry experience. We provide ISO 45001 certification services in Izmir, Manisa, Aydin, throughout the Aegean Region, and across Türkiye, within our applicable accreditation scope.
Occupational health and safety extends beyond permanent employees. Temporary workers, contractors, visitors, and other individuals who may be affected by an organization's activities are also important considerations in workplace safety management.
The ISO 45001 standard provides a structured framework for identifying workplace hazards, assessing risks, implementing preventive measures, ensuring worker participation, and continually improving occupational health and safety performance.
An ISO 45001 certificate demonstrates that an organization's occupational health and safety management system has been independently assessed and certified as meeting the requirements of the ISO 45001 standard.
During the ISO 45001 certification process, the organization's OH&S policies, hazard identification procedures, risk assessments, worker consultation and participation, legal obligations, emergency preparedness, and continual improvement activities are evaluated.
Following successful audits and a positive independent certification decision, an appropriately accredited ISO 45001 certification body may issue an ISO 45001 certificate.
ISO 45001 certification demonstrates conformity of the management system with the applicable standard. It does not guarantee that all workplace accidents or occupational risks will be eliminated.
ISO 45001:2018 is the current published main edition of the Occupational Health and Safety Management System standard. In 2024, ISO 45001:2018/Amd 1:2024 introduced an amendment addressing climate change considerations within the organization's management system context.
Key requirements of ISO 45001 include:
Establishing occupational health and safety policies and objectives
Systematically identifying workplace hazards
Assessing OH&S risks and opportunities
Implementing measures to eliminate hazards and reduce risks
Ensuring worker consultation and participation
Defining leadership commitments and responsibilities
Monitoring applicable legal and regulatory requirements
Establishing emergency preparedness and response procedures
Investigating incidents and nonconformities
Monitoring OH&S performance and implementing continual improvement
A revised edition of ISO 45001 is currently under development. Until the revision is officially published, ISO 45001:2018 and its applicable amendment remain the current requirements.
For official updates, visit the ISO 45001 standard page.
Organizations seeking ISO 45001 certification should establish an occupational health and safety management system, identify workplace hazards, assess relevant risks, and implement the applicable standard requirements.
The general certification process includes:
Certification Application: Reviewing organizational activities, workforce, locations, OH&S risks, and requested certification scope.
Application Review and Quotation: Evaluating organizational characteristics and audit requirements to prepare an appropriate quotation.
Stage 1 Audit: Reviewing management system documentation, hazard assessments, legal requirements, and certification readiness.
Stage 2 Audit: Assessing OH&S management system implementation, worker participation, operational controls, and conformity with ISO 45001 requirements.
Certification Decision: Reviewing audit findings and any required corrective actions before making an independent certification decision.
Surveillance and Recertification: Assessing continued conformity and effectiveness through applicable surveillance and recertification audits.
Audit duration and certification scope may vary according to organizational size, industry, workforce, number of locations, and occupational health and safety risk levels.
ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System requirements can be applied to organizations of any size and across different industries.
Common application areas include:
Manufacturing and Industrial Companies: Managing workplace hazards associated with production processes, machinery, and industrial operations
Construction Companies: Assessing risks related to construction sites, working at height, and other hazardous activities
Machinery and Metal Industries: Managing machinery-related hazards and workplace safety requirements
Chemical Companies: Evaluating chemical exposure and hazardous material handling risks
Automotive and Supplier Industries: Improving workplace safety across manufacturing, maintenance, and assembly operations
Logistics and Warehousing Companies: Managing risks associated with transportation, loading, unloading, and storage activities
Energy Companies: Controlling hazards related to electrical systems, maintenance, and energy operations
Healthcare Organizations: Improving the management of biological, physical, and occupational health risks
Service Providers: Evaluating ergonomic and other workplace-related risks
Public Institutions: Strengthening occupational health and safety management practices
ISO 45001 certification for manufacturing and industrial organizations provides an independent assessment of workplace health and safety management systems against internationally recognized requirements.
Effective implementation and certification of an ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System can help organizations:
Support the prevention of workplace accidents and occupational ill health
Identify and assess workplace hazards systematically
Improve working conditions and safety practices
Strengthen worker consultation and participation
Clarify occupational health and safety responsibilities
Support compliance obligation management
Improve emergency preparedness and response capabilities
Identify improvement opportunities through incident investigations
Reduce operational disruptions associated with workplace incidents
Strengthen employee awareness and safety culture
Improve stakeholder confidence and corporate credibility
Promote continual improvement of OH&S performance
ISO 45001 supports workplace health and safety management but does not replace an organization's legal obligations under applicable occupational health and safety legislation.
ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems and ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems address different but complementary aspects of organizational management.
ISO 45001 focuses on managing risks affecting workplace health and safety, while ISO 9001 addresses quality management, customer satisfaction, and continual process improvement.
Implementing these standards together may support a more integrated approach to organizational management.
