ISO 45001 - Safety Management System

Achieve Global Safety Standards with ISO 45001 Certification

At Solving Safety On Site (SSOS), we help businesses take their safety practices to the next level with ISO 45001 certification, the internationally recognised safety standard for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (OHSMS). Whether you're looking to improve internal safety systems or demonstrate compliance on a global scale, ISO 45001 provides the structure you need.

Our team guides you through every stage of the ISO 45001 certification process - helping you create a safer, more resilient workplace while building trust with clients, employees, and regulatory bodies. We simplify your journey to a fully integrated Safety Management System (SMS) that aligns with both legal requirements and global best practices.

What is ISO 45001?

ISO 45001 is the global standard for Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Management Systems. It provides a structured Safety Management System (SMS) framework for identifying risks, improving worker safety, and creating better, more consistent health and safety outcomes across all areas of your business.

Unlike basic compliance requirements, ISO 45001 is focused on proactive risk prevention, continual improvement, and employee involvement. It's designed for organisations of all sizes and industries that want to go beyond minimum safety standards and implement a robust Workplace Safety Management framework.

Frequently asked questions

What standards can be integrated into an IMS?

Common standards include ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), and ISO 45001 (Health and Safety). Integration depends on your business needs and compliance goals.

Does integration make certification easier?

Yes. Integrating systems allows for combined audits, reduced documentation, and clearer processes, making both initial and ongoing certification simpler and more cost-effective.

Can I integrate existing systems, or do I need to start from scratch?

You can absolutely integrate your current systems. We assess your existing frameworks and adapt them into one cohesive IMS, preserving what's working and improving what’s not.

Will IMS require more work for my team?

Initially, there will be some planning and training. But over time, an IMS reduces the overall workload by simplifying processes and reducing duplication—making your team’s job easier.

How long does it take to implement an IMS?

This varies depending on the size of your business and the complexity of your current systems. Most organisations can develop and implement an IMS within 4 to 8 months with our structured approach.

How do I maintain an IMS after implementation?

Maintenance involves regular internal audits, management reviews, ongoing training, and periodic updates. We offer ongoing support to help you stay compliant and continually improve your system.
