What is ISO 45001?
At ISO Advance, we believe every person deserves to return home safely after their workday. Our ISO 45001 certification services help organisations create safer workplaces whilst improving their overall business performance.
ISO 45001 is the internationally recognised standard for occupational health and safety management. It provides a structured framework that enables organisations to meet legal requirements, reduce risks, protect company reputation, create safe working environments, and win safety-critical contracts.
Unlike its predecessor OHSAS 18001, ISO 45001 takes a proactive approach, preventing incidents before they occur rather than simply responding to problems. This forward-thinking methodology helps organisations identify potential hazards and address them systematically, ensuring both compliance and genuine workplace safety.

Win More Contracts & Comply With HSE Requirements
Achieving ISO 45001 certification demonstrates your organisation’s genuine commitment to workplace health and safety. It signals to both clients and employees that your safety practices extend beyond mere regulatory compliance – they reflect a fundamental value placed on human wellbeing.
Certification yields numerous significant advantages:
- Reduced workplace incidents – Identify and mitigate hazards proactively before they result in harm
- Regulatory compliance – Meet all applicable health and safety legislation, avoiding legal penalties and complications
- Financial benefits – Many insurers offer preferential premium rates to certified organisations
- Enhanced reputation – Establish your organisation as responsible and conscientious
- Improved productivity – Minimise operational disruptions from incidents, maximising efficiency
- Enhanced employee satisfaction – Personnel feel valued within a demonstrably safe working environment
- Competitive advantage in tendering – Avoid exclusion from procurement opportunities where certification is mandatory, like with governmental bodies
- Reduced stakeholder pressure – Effectively respond to demands from regulators, clients and supply chains for demonstrated responsibility
- Support for organisational changes – Facilitate smooth transitions during mergers or restructuring
- Resource optimisation – Address high operational costs related to inefficient processes

Win Safety Critical Contracts with ISO Certification
ISO 45001 needn’t be bewildering. Our approachable specialists explain everything clearly, without resorting to complex terminology.
We transform intricate requirements into straightforward steps for your organisation. Our management process converts inputs (safety regulations) into outputs (tangible safety enhancements) that are practical and understandable.
This certification is particularly crucial because many organisations approach us when they are losing tender opportunities due to lack of certification. Companies often seek swift certification to qualify for upcoming tender opportunities. ISOs are frequently mandatory requirements in tendering processes for many organisation such as Government organisations.
