ISO 45001 Foundation Training

The ISO 45001:2018 standard is the international reference for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (OH&SMS). It replaces OHSAS 18001 and integrates into the High Level Structure (HLS) common to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 27001, facilitating integrated management approaches.

The ISO 45001 Foundation training gives you a solid understanding of the requirements, structure and key concepts of this standard, as well as the foundations needed to participate in the implementation or auditing of an OH&SMS.
