Home/Services/ISO Standards/ISO 45001 — Health & Safety
ISO 45001:2018 · HEALTH & SAFETY

ISO 45001 — safety your board can stand behind.

The health and safety management standard that turns HSWA duties into a working system. We build your 45001 system around real site work — risks, controls, worker participation — then take it through certification with a JAS-ANZ accredited body.

WHO IT SERVES

Built for operators whose people work at the sharp end.

USE-01
Meeting officer due-diligence duties

HSWA officers must exercise due diligence. A certified 45001 system gives directors the evidence stream — incidents, actions, reviews — that the duty demands.

USE-02
Getting onto principal contractor panels

Tier-one principals and government projects prequalify on certified safety systems. 45001 sits above the prequal schemes — one system feeds every portal.

USE-03
Replacing paper safety systems nobody reads

A binder nobody opens protects nobody. We build the system into daily work — pre-starts, toolbox talks, verified controls — so it runs on site, not on a shelf.

Q&A — ISO 45001

HSWA is the law; 45001 is the management system that operationalises it. Certification doesn't replace legal duties — it evidences them: risk management, worker engagement and officer due diligence in one auditable system.

An independent, JAS-ANZ accredited certification body — never us. We build the system, prepare your team and support you through their Stage 1 and Stage 2 audits. That separation is what makes the certificate credible.

No. Most of a 4801 or 18001 system carries over. The transition programme maps your existing system to 45001's clauses — typically 6–10 weeks, quoted fixed-price like everything else.
