BS ISO 45001:2018, Occupational health and safety management systems. Requirements with guidance for use. This is the international standard for occupational health and safety (OH&S) management systems. It provides a framework for an organization to manage its OH&S risks and improve its performance. Although not specific to fire, a management system certified to ISO 45001 would need to demonstrate a robust process for identifying all workplace hazards, including fire, assessing risks, and implementing effective control measures. It promotes a top-down leadership approach and a culture of continuous improvement, which is fundamental to creating a safe workplace and complying with legislation like the Health and Safety at Work Act. This page provides a structured summary, key provisions, and practical guidance on the application of BS ISO 45001 OH&S Management to UK fire safety engineering, building design, and Building Safety Act compliance.
