About This Service
ISO 45001:2018 is the first international standard for occupational health and safety management systems, replacing earlier specifications such as OHSAS 18001. It demands more than regulatory compliance: organisations must actively identify hazards, assess OH&S risks and opportunities, and involve workers in decisions that affect their safety.
At the heart of ISO 45001 is the hierarchy of controls — elimination and substitution of hazards come before administrative controls and personal protective equipment. Worker consultation and participation structures are also explicit requirements, because frontline workers are the most accurate source of hazard information.
SHD auditors are experienced in assessing OH&S implementation in high-risk sectors such as construction, energy, manufacturing, and logistics. An ISO 45001 certificate from a KAN-accredited body proves to clients, regulators, and insurers that your OH&S risk management has been verified by an independent third party.
Benefits
- Fewer workplace accidents and lost workdays through systematic hazard identification.
- OH&S regulatory compliance (including Indonesia's SMK3 under Government Regulation 50/2012) managed within one system framework.
- Higher worker morale and productivity because employees feel heard and protected.
- Stronger standing in projects that require supplier OH&S system maturity.
- Potential reductions in insurance costs and claims thanks to a documented safety track record.
Frequently Asked Questions
No, but they complement each other. SMK3 (Government Regulation 50/2012) is an Indonesian regulatory obligation for high-risk companies above certain workforce thresholds, while ISO 45001 is an international standard. Their structures are highly compatible, so they can be integrated and audited together.
You need a transition audit. Our auditors will assess the gap against the new requirements — especially organisational context, leadership, and worker consultation — then issue the ISO 45001 certificate once conformity is verified.
Yes. The standard applies to organisations of any size and sector, including offices, retail, and services — not only high-risk industries. The depth of risk assessment is tailored to operational complexity.
A central one. The standard mandates worker consultation and participation mechanisms, and auditors will interview frontline workers to verify that the OH&S system is genuinely practised, not just documented.
