ISO 45001:2018 — Occupational health and safety management systems. Requirements with guidance for use (with Amd 1:2024; UK adoption BS EN ISO 45001:2023+A1:2024)

Provisions the documents cite: whole standard, including Amendment 1:2024 (climate action changes)

What it requires

The requirements for an occupational health and safety management system. BSI's current UK adoption, BS EN ISO 45001:2023+A1:2024 (published 30 September 2024), is identical to ISO 45001:2018 with Amd 1:2024 and supersedes BS ISO 45001:2018 and BS OHSAS 18001:2007, both withdrawn. The 2024 amendment adds two statements on climate change as part of ISO's climate action commitment. The text is paywalled and was not read, so no clause is summarised here. Certification bodies report a full revision in progress; this was not confirmed at ISO.
