Over two million people worldwide die every year due to work-related accidents and illness, which corresponds to over 6000 deaths every day (International Labour Organisation, 2020). Globally, there are about 340 million occupational accidents and 160 million victims of work-related injuries and illness each year (International Labour Organisation, 2020). Occupational health and safety is a major challenge for many organizations. Regardless of the size and nature of their business, organizations should protect their people and provide a safe and healthy working environment. They should identify the potential health and safety risks present in their workplace and take appropriate action to keep their workers free from harm. Occupational safety focuses on potential safety hazards that can cause injury. Occupational health, on the other hand, looks at potential health issues such as occupational medicine, occupational hygiene, and primary health care, including the wellbeing of workers. For organizations that want to implement an occupational health and safety management system based on the ISO 45001:2018 standard but are not familiar with its structure and definitions, it often takes a significant amount of resources to understand the requirements of the standard and plan their implementation. This book provides guidance in establishing an occupational health and safety management system linked to the requirements of ISO 45001:2018. It aims to explain all the requirements of ISO 45001:2018 clause by clause to provide guidance to: • Organizations preparing for ISO 45001:2018 implementation • Individuals who want to build a career in occupational health and safety • Health and safety practitioners and managers who want to improve their occupational health and safety performance • Occupational health and safety consultants who prepare their clients for ISO 45001:2018 certification audits • Internal and external auditors who audit occupational health and safety management systems. In addition to the requirements of the standard, this book includes industry best practices, methods, and techniques to address these requirements. While clarifying each requirement of the standard, it also discusses the steps needed to achieve the requirement, areas that auditors may check, and mandatory or voluntary documents that may be maintained or retained to demonstrate conformity with the requirement.

This handbook explains how an organization can use a management system to both control and improve its safety or occupational health and safety performance. It provides guidance in building the OH&S management system in support of the organization’s operations, linking the management system to the requirements of ISO 45001:2018, to support third-party certification. Included in the text are best practices as well as common pitfalls or weaknesses I have observed in various organizations. For those organizations certified according to OHSAS 18001:2007, the book highlights the changes required to upgrade to the new international standard. The ISO 45001:2018 Implementation Handbook is formatted to describe each clause of ISO 45001:2018 in four sections: 1. Correspondence with the current OHSAS 18001 standard2. The ISO requirement3. Guidance on conformance to the requirements4. Questions for internal auditors A CD included with this handbook contains internal auditor check sheets that can be used to assess conformance to ISO 45001:2018.

THIS BOOK CONTAINS EXPERT ADVICE ON HOW TO PREPARE FOR ISO 45001:2018, IMPLEMENTATION AND AUDITING Providing Safe & Healthy Workplace with ISO 45001:2018 provides guidance on the implementation and auditing of ISO 45001: 2018 in a simple way. The book was published with the aim of giving the reader knowledge and practical advice on preparing for ISO 45001: 2018 implementations without much stress or struggle. This book will also help auditors with internal and external audits by talking about ‘What to look for’ during the audit. With this book, you will learn: • The benefits of ISO 45001:2018 implementation • Strategizing for ISO 45001:2018 implementation • Understanding the ISO 45001:2018 clauses and what organizations should do to implement it • What auditors need to look for during an audit of ISO 45001: 2008 The book also contains examples of how an organization interprets and establishes the system for the easy implementation of Occupational Health & Safety (OH&S) Management systems in the organisation.

The book describes the most important quality management tools (e.g. QFD, Kano model), methods (e.g. FMEA, Six Sig-ma) and standards (e.g. IS0 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, ISO 45001, SA8000). It reflects recent developments in the field. It is considered a must-read for students, academics, and practitioners.

ISO45001:2018 Pocket book gives the brief about standard requirements and implementation guidelines.

This book provides a comprehensive explanation of the detailed requirements of ISO 45001. The author draws out key parts of the Standard, which can often be confusing for non-experts or newcomers to ISO standards, and explains what they mean and how to comply.

Safety management in many organizations is simply a mirage and yet people rely on it to protect their lives and assets. Management must come to understand that the implemented safety management systems may be sitting on weak foundations and may not perform when relied upon. Many safety management systems are mere “paper tigers” and in reality, just a paper-exercise. Valuable lessons can be learnt from how safety was mismanaged or had become dysfunctional in many organizations so that these pitfalls can be avoided. Lessons can also be learnt from organizations that have successfully navigated their safety management despite the challenges discussed in the book. Stakeholders need to scrutinize the effectiveness of the controls in place, rather than be another participant in the safety charade. To maximize payback and effectiveness, a safety management system must attend to the needs of each different organization. A “one-size-fits-all” standardized solution will invariably be sub-optimal. Importantly, the safety management system implemented must commensurate with the risk exposure of the organization.

THIS BOOK CONTAINS EXPERT ADVICE ON HOW TO PREPARE FOR AN INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN AN ORGANISATION COVERING REQUIREMENTS FOR ISO 9001: 2015/ ISO 14001: 2015/ ISO 45001:2018 AND ISO 50001: 2018 IMPLEMENTATION AND AUDITING THE INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. This book gives Guidance on the Implementation and auditing of an Integrated Management System covering different disciplines in a simple form. Integrated Management Systems in all areas of activity which have influence on the quality of the products supplied by the organization to their customers, and influence on Environment, Health & Safety of personnel and Energy performance. The book has been published with the aim to give you the knowledge and practical advice on preparing for an Integrated Management System implementation without much stress, or struggle. The book will also help the auditors, for Internal as well as External audits, in understanding “ What to look at ” and “What to Look for” during the Audit keeping in mind the requirements of all the integrated disciplines simultaneously. THIS BOOK IS ALSO HELPFUL IN IMPLEMENTING ANY ONE OF THESE STANDARDS OR ANY TWO OR THREE OF THESE STANDARDS IN INTEGRATED FORM.

Updated to the latest standard changes including ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and OHSAS 18001:2016 Includes guidance on integrating Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Organizations today are implementing stand-alone systems for their Quality Management Systems (ISO 9001, ISO/TS 16949, or AS 9100), Environmental Management System (ISO 14001), Occupational Health & Safety (ISO 18001), and Food Safety Management Systems (FSSC 22000). Stand-alone systems refer to the use of isolated document management structures resulting in the duplication of processes within one site for each of the management standards—QMS, EMS, OHSAS, and FSMS. In other words, the stand-alone systems duplicate training processes, document control, and internal audit processes for each standard within the company. While the confusion and lack of efficiency resulting from this decision may not be readily apparent to the uninitiated, this book will show the reader that there is a tremendous loss of value associated with stand-alone management systems within an organization. This book expands the understanding of an integrated management system (IMS) globally. It not only saves money, but more importantly it contributes to the maintenance and efficiency of business processes and conformance standards such as ISO 9001, AS9100, ISO/TS 16949, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, FSSC 22000, or other GFSI Standards.
