The integration of ISO 9001 with ISO 45001 means your business can benefit from increased quality and an occupational Health & Safety management system (OHSMS). ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 are uniquely constructed management system Standards designed with businesses like yours in mind.
Their uniform structures make them a perfect fit to combine to deliver on core objectives that enhance the overall operation and efficiency across your business. As a result, it’s even easier for you to drive continual improvement across a range of critical areas – without unnecessary effort.
Integrating ISO 45001 with the ISO 9001 quality management system means your business complies with international Standards for quality and Health & Safety. Blending the benefits of an occupational Health & Safety system with the core principles of quality management that offers a streamlined process with robust protection for customers and employees alike.
The ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 Standards boast a common framework, known as the Annex SL Structure, which means they share their 10 clauses.
Combining these ISOs into a single documented and managed system allows you to easily implement changes and improvements throughout your business following the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle, minimising any negative impacts further down the line.
Plan: Owners are clearly defined; leaders take responsibility and processes are documented and well communicated.
Do: Training needs are identified and met, while resources are effectively allocated during operation.
Check: Regular checks are conducted to inspect the system’s effectiveness, with risks and failings identified and documented.
Act: Beneficial improvements are rolled out through the single, integrated system and excellence is achieved through compliance best practice insights.
By reducing the time it takes to manage compliance across a range of areas and employing just one IMS manager, you can take control of excellence and enhance deliverability.
You will also gain control of your compliance 24/7 through our digital management system platform, Atlas ISO. This comes with the additional benefits of built-in document controls, digital templates and automated task management.
Whilst the core objectives of both ISO Standards are different, several overlaps can bring aligned benefits for your business.
The ISO for quality has plenty in common with the ISO for Occupational Health & Safety when it comes to systems and structures. To achieve them, you must show how you intend to develop and implement operations to measure and improve your management system, as well as both monitor and evaluate your business practices.
