Developing a Culture of Safety Beyond the Boundaries of the Factory

According to the International Labor Organization (ILO), more than 2.78 million deaths and nearly 374 million non-fatal injuries occur every year due to accidents and exposures at the workplace, In the U.S. alone, the number of fatal injuries came in at over 5,100 for the year 2017.

With companies and executives being held accountable for incidents in the workplace, the issue of workers’ health and safety has become a persistent concern for organizations around the world. And with varying standards across borders, confusion about what companies need to do is rampant.

This need for an international consensus standard on workplace health and safety prompted the proposal of ISO 45001 in 2013.

The standard, passed in March 2018, now serves as the international guide on occupational health and safety (OH&S) and outlines relevant methods and benchmarks.

With insight from expert leadership, this whitepaper gives you the complete guide on how to work with the new standard. You'll learn:

  • Why ISO 45001 matters and its impact upon your business
  • The benefits and pathway to becoming certified
  • Important considerations for the contractor selection process
