ISO 45001

Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems

The ISO 45001 certification service consists of the assessment of the documentation for the correct implementation of the management system, the random auditing of compliance with legislation using specific, easy-to-complete checklists, as well as on-site inspection activities completed by interviews with personnel to verify the level of involvement and awareness in the field of occupational health and safety. The output of the service, in addition to issuing certification in the event of a positive audit, is to identify areas for improvement that the organisation can pursue.

ISO 45001 has been developed as a ‘high level structure’, which allows it to be perfectly integrated with other management systems, such as ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015.
Certiquality, always attentive to the issue of safety, has signed an exclusive agreement with D.A.S., part of the Generali Group, to guarantee legal protection to all organisations that hold a valid ISO 45001 certification.

How can we help your business?

CONTEXT

The new ISO 45001 standard, which is recognised and shared around the world, was created to help all organisations establish an Occupational Health and Safety Management System based on minimising occupational risks, improving safety and working conditions on a global scale. The new ISO standard replaces BS OHSAS 18001.

Adopting an occupational health and safety standard is an effective way to combat the number of accidents and illnesses at work, which cost between 2.6% and 3.8% of gross domestic product (GDP).

Certified companies have significantly lower accident rates than non-certified ones, on average 27% lower in terms of frequency and 35% lower in terms of severity (Source: AccrediaObservatory). As a result, the number of certifications has more than doubled in the last four years and continues to grow at a high level despite the general crisis.
