Occupational Health and Safety Management System (Superseded)
This standard is the benchmark for assessing and auditing Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems in the workplace. It is regarded as a discipline which guides organisations in developing and implementing policies and objectives that demonstrate a company’s knowledge and control over hazards and risks in its work environment. The Australian and New Zealand standard in AS/NZS 4801.
The responsibility of management in regards to the health and safety of their employees, business units, and output have increased due to changes with the introduction of the WHS Act in 2011. As a result, this has made it increasingly important for an organisation to implement a management system to comply with the necessary obligations.
Note: ISO 45001:2018 was released on the 12th of March 2018 and OHSAS 18001:2007 has been superseded from that date. Read about the changes here.

Third Party Certification is the process of having your Management System audited by an independent third party. This type of auditing is typically used by Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs) who are regulated by a government organisation known as JAS-ANZ.
