Introduction to ISO45001 Standard Clauses and Requirements

In this detailed video, I cover the main Clauses and Requirements within ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS). There's a lot of conetent and the timestamps below will help with navigation: 00:00 Introduction 03:31 Clause 4 – Context Of The Organisation 05:42 Clause 5 – Leadership 14:36 Clause 6 – Planning 25:52 Clause 7 – Support 31:43 Clause 8 – Operation 37:17 Clause 9 – Performance Evaluation 45:55 Clause 10 – Improvement About the Clauses & Requirements: CLAUSE 4 – CONTEXT OF THE ORGANISATION (03:31) This section requires organisations to assess the context of their operations and document the needs and expectations of interested parties. Usually, this is categorised into two: external and internal issues. External issues include your organisation’s union expectations, political and economic conditions, as well as relevant laws and regulations. On the other hand, internal issues include your company’s communication methodologies and the commitment of your team to co-operate and adhere to the existing policies. CLAUSE 5 – LEADERSHIP (05:42) This section is designed for employees and managers alike. It demands that the top leaders demonstrate leadership and dedication regarding the OH&S management system. It also requires top managers to implement, monitor, and maintain an OH&S policy that’s unique to your organisation and make sure the administrative authorities, roles, and responsibilities are clearly understood. CLAUSE 6 – PLANNING (14:36) This involves establishing the objectives of your health and safety management systems and how you can attain them. The obvious reason is to mitigate the risk of workplace accidents and common health issues. CLAUSE 7 – SUPPORT (25:52) In this section, your organisation needs to provide support elements required to implement, manage, and continually improve the occupational health and safety management system. This support system may include resources, methods of communication, staff awareness, and the need for documented information. CLAUSE 8 – OPERATION (31:43) Section eight covers the operation controls organisations must look into, including management of change, emergency response, elimination of hazards, and change in procurement. You can implement your operational processes by developing criteria for operation control. CLAUSE 9 – PERFORMANCE EVALUATION (37:17) Performance evaluation covers systems for monitoring and assessment of compliance with internal audit, legal requirements, and management review to ensure the system’s overall effectiveness. CLAUSE 10 – IMPROVEMENT (45:55) This last clause demands that your organisation manages the OH&S system nonconformities, incidents, and corrective actions. This also covers the commitment to continual improvement. 📺CHANNEL SUBSCRIBE: Make sure to Subscribe and hit the Notification bell to be notified when videos go live.
