Use ISO 45001 to Enhance Workplace Safety
Workplace safety is more than an ethical and legal obligation to employees and other stakeholders. It affects the continuity of operations and bottom-line performance, and ISO 45001:2018 offers a systematic management approach with which to not just meet but even exceed basic regulatory requirements.
Why Should You Attend
While organizations must already comply with OSHA regulations and usually have safety departments with express responsibility for compliance, many do not have OH&S management systems that support these efforts. ISO 45001:2018 offers a framework for an OH&S management system that is compatible with an integrated management system for quality (ISO 9001) and other goals, and helps organizations not just meet but even exceed basic regulatory requirements for workplace safety. This presentation will provide a comprehensive overview of ISO 45001:2018 and add tools such as workplace safety committees, near-miss reports, and job safety analysis for a systematic approach to comprehensive workplace safety.
Areas Covered in the Session
Attendees will learn the function and application of the seven basic quality tools.
- Industrialists recognized 100 years ago that workplace safety, or lack thereof, affects organizational performance. The Ford Motor Company acted on this, and long before OSHA existed to make it mandatory, by systematically eliminating workplace hazards to make itself one of the safest workplaces on earth.
- The structure of ISO 45001 (like other ISO standards) supports continual improvement.
- Clause 4, Context of the Organization, stresses the needs and expectations of workers as relevant interested parties. This standard, unlike most others, puts particular emphasis on the needs and expectations of workers.
- Clause 5, Leadership and Worker Participation, underscores ISO 45001's focus on workers.
- Clause 6, Planning
- Clause 7, Support
- Clause 8, Operations
- Clause 9, Performance Evaluation
- Clause 10, Improvement, includes the need for corrective and preventive action (CAPA) for incidents and near misses.
- Appendix (in the handout only): an overview of the Army's Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment process
- Who Will Benefit
- All people with responsibility for occupational health and safety
