Our ISO 45001 training courses offer a comprehensive understanding of the standard, along with audit training to help you effectively implement and maintain an OHS management system in your organization.

• How can workplace safety hazards be identified and addressed?

  Workplace safety hazards can be identified through regular inspections, risk assessments, and employee feedback. Once identified, employers should take appropriate measures to eliminate or mitigate the risks, such as implementing engineering controls, administrative controls, or providing personal protective equipment (PPE). Ongoing training and communication about workplace safety procedures can help ensure a safe work environment.
