ISO 45001 certification Australia is a globally recognized Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (OHSMS) framework. It assists organizations, regardless of size or industry, prevent work-related injuries and illnesses and foster a safe and healthy workplace.
The ISO 45001 certification standard is designed to be compatible with other ISO management system standards, such as ISO 9001 (quality management) and ISO 14001 (environmental management).

Understanding the organisation's internal and external context, including its stakeholders, and identifying its health and safety risks and opportunities.
Establishing a leadership commitment to OHSMS, engaging workers and other stakeholders, and promoting a safety culture.
Building objectives and targets for OHSMS, identifying and assessing hazards and risks, and developing a plan to manage them.
Providing the necessary resources and infrastructure, including training, communication, and documentation, to implement and maintain the OHSMS.
Implementing the OHSMS plan, including controlling hazards and risks, managing incidents and emergencies, and monitoring and measuring OHSMS performance.
