ISO 45001 Audit

Our consultants use the ISO 45001 audit checklist during the certification process, to check that you are compliant with the Occupational Health & Safety (OH&S) Standard.

Full compliance is necessary before we can award your certificate. The audit checklist covers the seven main areas of the ISO 45001 Standard, and asks questions such as:
