Planning

Planning in ISO 45001 means identifying the hazards of each job, assessing the risk and deciding what to do before the accident happens.

Content reviewed on

Hazard identification and risk assessment

Proactive hazard identification —including those arising from work organization, psychosocial factors and emergency situations— and assessment of the risk tied to each job.

Identifying applicable OH&S legal and other requirements, and how they affect the identified hazards and risks.

OH&S objectives and planning

Objectives consistent with the policy, with an action plan that prioritizes eliminating the hazard over personal protective equipment.

What an auditor usually asks for

  • An up-to-date job-level risk assessment
  • An OH&S legal requirements register with validity dates
  • OH&S objectives with an indicator, an owner and a date
  • A hierarchy of controls applied: eliminate before you protect
