ISO 45001 Overview

Why ISO 45001?
Prevention is always better than cure when you are ensuring the safety of people. By demonstrating that you have defined safe systems of work, identified hazards, managed risks and ensured that your staff are competent to operate safely, you will not only help to prevent injury or ill health but you will also reduce the risk of litigation and the financial implications associated with it.
A good health and safety culture within the workplace can also help to improve productivity with no lost time investigating accidents, a reduction in pay outs for criminal or civil lawsuits and increased staff attendance.
