Introduction

This one-day CQI and IRCA certified training course is for those wanting an introduction to the new international occupational health and safety management system (OHSMS) standard ISO 45001:2018 and to understand how it can be used to develop, maintain and improve your health and safety performance. Knowledge and understanding of ISO 45001:2018 is more than simply reading the standard’s text.
