What is the key difference between OHSAS 18001 vs. ISO 45001.OHSAS 18001 vs. ISO 45001
To prevent and limit onsite work incidents, businesses can receive certification in a standard for occupational health and safety management. Two well-known standards are ISO 45001 and OHSAS 18001—but what is the difference between OHSAS 18001 and ISO 45001?
ISO 45001 is designed to replace OHSAS 18001 next year; in fact, organizations who are already certified to OHSAS 18001 will need to migrate to ISO 45001 by the end of March 2021. Businesses who do not transition over to an ISO 45001 certification will find themselves without an accredited occupational health and safety management system and will lose the benefits that come with that title.
