The standard
What is ISO 45001 certification?
ISO 45001 is the international standard for occupational health and safety management systems. It helps organizations identify and manage workplace hazards, assess OH&S risks and opportunities, address applicable requirements, involve workers and continually improve health and safety performance.
Independent certification demonstrates that your occupational health and safety management system has been assessed against ISO 45001 requirements. It can support customer confidence, tender requirements and safer ways of working; it does not guarantee an accident-free workplace or legal compliance.
45001
Workplace safety your customers can recognize.
Relevant to construction companies, manufacturers, contractors, logistics providers and organizations of many sizes.

A straightforward review
We’ll discuss your existing certificate, audit history, open nonconformities and certification status before determining the available options. Transfers are subject to the issuing certification body’s approval.

Common questions
ISO 45001 Certification FAQs
How much does ISO 45001 certification cost?
Costs depend on the number of personnel, activities, industry complexity, locations and required audit time. Request a tailored quote for your organization.
How long does ISO 45001 certification take?
Timing depends on your readiness, auditor availability and the closure of any nonconformities. We can discuss an achievable schedule based on your circumstances.
Can a small business become ISO 45001 certified?
Yes. ISO 45001 can apply to organizations of different sizes and sectors.
Does ISO 45001 certification guarantee an accident-free workplace?
No. Certification assesses the OH&S management system against ISO 45001 requirements; it cannot guarantee zero injuries, eliminate all risks or independently establish legal compliance.
Can an ISO 45001 audit be conducted remotely?
Remote auditing may be possible where appropriate and permitted by the applicable certification arrangements and risks.
Who issues the certificate?
ARS or SCK issues the certificate under the applicable arrangements following an independent certification decision.
Does Blue Wolf provide ISO 45001 implementation consulting?
Blue Wolf’s role here is independent certification auditing, not implementation consultancy for the same certification arrangements.
