Step 4: Internal Audit and Non-conformance Resolution
Our consultants conduct a comprehensive internal audit of your safety management system to evaluate compliance with ISO 45001 standards. Any identified non-conformities are addressed through corrective actions, ensuring your organisation is fully prepared for the final audit.
Step 5: Certification Audit with an Accredited Body
Once your health and safety management system is ready, we coordinate with an accredited certification body to conduct the official certification audit. Our team provides support throughout the process, ensuring smooth communication and successful completion of the audit.

FAQs About ISO 45001
The first international standard for Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) management systems, ISO 45001, has been introduced to combat the rising number of work-related injuries, illnesses, and fatalities globally.
ISO 45001 offers a comprehensive framework for identifying and managing OHS risks and opportunities, ensuring a safe and healthy workplace while safeguarding the physical and mental well-being of employees. Organisations certified to AS/NZS 4801 or OHSAS 18001 must transition to ISO 45001:2018 before the deadline to maintain compliance with OHS management standards.
Follow these six steps to achieve ISO 45001 certification:
- Conduct a Pre-Assessment: Evaluate your current Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) systems to identify gaps.
- Utilise ISO Resources: Access ISO guidance materials and tools to prepare for certification.
- Undergo a Certification Audit: Engage an accredited certification body to review your OHS system against ISO 45001 requirements.
- Receive a Certificate of Registration: Obtain official certification upon meeting the standard’s criteria.
- Maintain Compliance: Consistently adhere to ISO 45001 standards through ongoing monitoring and improvement.
- Complete the Recertification Process: Renew your certification periodically by passing the required audits.
The timeframe to achieve ISO 45001 certification depends on the size and complexity of your organisation’s safety management system. Typically, the process can take anywhere from 3 to 12 months. This includes the stages of gap analysis, action plan development, implementation, internal audit, and the final certification audit by an accredited body.
Key documents required for ISO 45001 certification include:
- Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) policies.
- Hazard identification and risk assessment records.
- Evidence of employee training and awareness programs.
- Procedures for emergency preparedness and response.
- Internal audit reports and management reviews.
These documents demonstrate compliance with ISO 45001 standards and ensure your health and safety management system aligns with certification requirements.
your organisation already has a safety management system in place, such as OHSAS 18001, transitioning to ISO 45001 is a seamless process. ISO 45001 occupational health standards build upon existing frameworks while introducing enhanced risk management practices and alignment with the Annex SL structure. This integration ensures your system remains effective, relevant, and compliant with current health and safety legislation.
Achieving ISO 45001 certification is a significant step toward improving workplace safety and ensuring compliance with international standards. Let us guide you through every stage of the process, from gap analysis to certification and beyond.
