The ISO 45001: 2018 Implementation Handbook: Guidance on Building an Occupational Health and Safety Management System

As with Milt Dentch's previous ASQ books on ISO management systems (ISO 9001 and ISO 14001), his coverage of ISO 45001:2018 manages to be both concise, yet fully informative. Avoiding fluff, the book's guidance on this new ISO health and safety standard provides a helpful section-by-section digest coupled with implementation examples and changes from the OHSAS 18001 requirements. Dennis Sasseville Sustainability Quality Systems Director Worthen Industries, Inc. 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: Correspondence with the current OHSAS 18001 standard The ISO requirement Guidance on conformance to the requirements 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.
