Safety management in the workplace has become a major component of operational success and compliance in most organizations across the globe. OHSAS 18001 was a popular framework to control occupational health and safety (OH&S) risks that was used for more than 20 years. But in 2018, ISO has come up with a new international standard- ISO 45001 that is to substitute OHSAS 18001. The transition was not only a major change in terms of vocabulary or record-keeping, but also in philosophy, structure and implementation strategy.
