In 2022 alone, there were 993 workplace fatalities and nearly 348,747 lost-time injuries across various industries in Canada. ISO 45001, the internationally recognized standard for occupational health and safety (OH&S) management systems, provides a structured framework for organizations to reduce workplace risks, enhance employee well-being, and boost compliance across industries. The ISO standard is beneficial for all industries and offers a broad framework that allows organizations to tailor their approach to meet the standard.

ISO 45001: The Game-Changer in Workplace Safety & Global Compliance

When it comes to workplace safety, ISO 45001 isn’t just another checklist, it’s a dynamic, process-driven certification that empowers organizations to build a customized Occupational Health & Safety Management System (OHSMS) tailored to their unique risks. Unlike traditional certifications, ISO 45001 prioritizes real-world application, ensuring businesses don’t just meet standards but actively enhance safety, reduce liability, and strengthen their safety culture.

Beyond Compliance: A Global Competitive Edge

For Ontario businesses, there’s even more reason to pay attention ISO 45001 may soon be recognized as equivalent to COR® , meaning with ISO alone companies can:

  • Meet new bidding requirements seamlessly within Ontario and beyond
  • Expand operations beyond provincial and national boundaries
  • Strengthen credibility with international standards
