Frequently Asked Questions
Is ISO 45001 the same as OHSAS 18001?
No. ISO 45001 supersedes OHSAS 18001 with a higher-level structure, stronger leadership clauses and a sharper focus on worker participation.
Who should be the safety management representative?
Usually a senior plant or operations head who can authorise resources, supported by a trained safety officer for day-to-day documentation.
Can ISO 45001 cover multiple plant locations?
Yes. Multi-site certification uses one system manual with site-specific annexures, audited site by site during surveillance.
