E-Survey of selected SIA submission to the ISO 45001 DIS

Thank you for participating in our survey. Your feedback is important to help develop this new global standard for OHS management system..

The SIA had submitted about 108 recommendations to improve the ISO 45001 DIS; however, the SF-001 committee had accepted about 16 of those recommendations. The following are some of the recommendations declined by the committee, which the SIA believe are critical and need to be included in the new international OHS management system standard.

Two sections within the ISO 45001 DIS are presented here – Terms and Definitions (section A), and the Standard Requirements (section B). The reference line numbers requiring amendment in the standard are identified in column 1 in the following tables. Column 2 describes the standard’s clause or sub-clause requirements. The final two columns explain the SIA’s rationale for the amendment and the description of the amendment (highlighted in red).

Section A: Terms and definitions

i)              Promotion and Collaboration
ii)             Workers
