SERVICE NEEDS CHECK
Start the quick check Is ISO 45001 right for us?
A short, specific check to help you choose your next step. No contact details required.
The business question
Are we managing the risks to employees and contractors?
Why consider this service?
Review how workplace hazards, worker participation and safety responsibilities are managed.
What to bring to the first conversation
Describe your workplaces, main hazards and existing safety arrangements.
OH&S / THE BUSINESS PURPOSE
How are risks to people at work being managed?
Worker participation. Clear responsibilities. Better-informed risk controls.
People and controls
Connect worker consultation, competence, responsibilities and appropriate risk controls.
Preparedness and learning
Plan for emergencies, investigate incidents and use findings to improve the system.
Who can benefit?
Construction, manufacturing, engineering, logistics, healthcare, field services and office-based organisations with occupational health and safety risks.
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE
Safety starts with how work actually happens.
A construction team reviews work at height with the people doing it, assesses the hazards and defines appropriate controls and inspection routines. Workers can report concerns and incidents feed into corrective action. An office applies the same management approach to ergonomics, electrical hazards and evacuation readiness.
Hypothetical scenario to explain the management approach; not a client case study.READINESS IS MORE THAN DOCUMENTATION
A management system needs operating evidence.
A functioning OH&S management system can strengthen safety responsibilities, emergency preparedness and learning from incidents, while supporting efforts to reduce workplace risk.
Discuss which assessment, implementation guidance, training, internal review and coordination activities your organisation needs. The proposal defines what Innomerc delivers, what involves specialists and what remains with the certification body.
Certification does not mean a workplace has no hazards or that accidents cannot happen. Effective controls, participation and ongoing review remain essential.
Typical evidence to discuss
- Hazard identification and risk assessments
- Worker consultation and competence records
- Operational and emergency controls
- Incident investigation and corrective actions
Illustrative topics, not an exhaustive checklist or a promise that every item is included in an engagement.
YOUR CERTIFICATION JOURNEY
Build readiness. Preserve independence.
Define the scope
Start with your business activities, locations, objectives and current certification status.
Plan readiness
Agree the support needed for gaps, implementation, evidence, training and internal review.
Independent assessment
The certification body assesses the management system and makes the certification decision.
Keep improving
Maintain the system and prepare for applicable surveillance, changes and recertification.
Readiness support and certification are distinct activities. The engagement defines Innomerc’s responsibilities and any specialist involvement. ISO develops standards; independent certification bodies conduct certification.
EDITION & SCOPE
Start from the applicable requirements.
ISO 45001:2018 is the current published edition used for this service overview. Applicable amendments, sector competence and onsite assessment needs are considered when defining the engagement.
Read the official ISO standard overview ↗QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU START
Make an informed next move.
Is ISO 45001 relevant to office-based organisations?
Yes. The management system can address relevant office risks as well as industrial hazards. The controls should reflect the people, work activities and working environment in scope.
What affects the price and timescale?
The organisational scope, locations, people, operational complexity, existing evidence and certification-body assessment requirements all matter. We discuss these before defining support. Certification is not guaranteed by a deadline or a consultancy engagement.
Who conducts the certification audit?
An independent certification body conducts its certification assessment and makes the certification decision. Innomerc’s support and coordination responsibilities are defined in the engagement scope.
Can this standard work alongside other management systems?
Yes. Organisations can share suitable management processes while retaining the distinct requirements of each standard. The appropriate combination follows business needs and must be scoped carefully.
CONNECTED CAPABILITIES
