Aim of ISO-45001
The standard is intended to be applicable to any organization regardless of size, type, and activity

It enables an organization, through its OH&S management system, to integrate other aspects of
health and safety, such as worker wellness/wellbeing.

It does not state specific criteria for OH&S performance, nor is it prescriptive about the design of
an OH&S management system.

This document does not address issues such as product safety, property damage or environmental
impacts, beyond the risks to workers and other relevant interested parties.
Aim of ISO-45001
WHAT IS 45001
High Level Structure (HLS)
ISO decided in 2012 that all Management System standards shall use a common framework:

• Unified High Level Structure

• Common Text and Terminology

Individual management systems standard will add additional “discipline - specific” requirements as
required

Applicable for new standards and upcoming revisions of existing standards
