The international standard for worker safety. We audit your OH&S management system against ISO 45001 and, on the evidence, issue certification — independently of the audit team.
ISO 45001:2018 sets the requirements for an occupational health and safety management system: identifying and controlling risks to workers, ensuring legal compliance, involving workers, and continually improving safety performance.
As an independent certification body, Skyeblanc Certification audits your occupational health and safety management system against ISO 45001 and, where the evidence supports conformity, issues certification. We do not design, document or improve your system — that separation is a requirement of ISO/IEC 17021-1 and is exactly what gives an ISO 45001 certificate its meaning.
Certification is delivered under ISO/IEC 17021-1, with the certification decision made by an independent decision-maker who did not conduct your audit.
The same defined path for every applicant — the certification decision held independent of the audit team.
A readiness review of your documented OH&S, scope and objectives, and audit planning.
On-site or ICT-assisted assessment of the OH&S in operation against ISO 45001.
An independent decision-maker reviews the evidence and grants — or declines — certification.
Annual surveillance audits, then a full recertification at year three renews the cycle.
Audit duration for ISO 45001 is determined per IAF MD5 — never a flat rate. The main factors:
The number of people — including shifts and part-time — is the primary driver of audit duration.
How many sites and where. Multi-site sampling follows IAF MD1.
The range of activities and processes within your certified scope.
Operations across multiple shifts can extend on-site audit time.
Transfers from another accredited body are reviewed under IAF MD2.
On-site or ICT-assisted remote auditing per IAF MD4, matched to risk.
Fees are fixed for the defined audit programme. A fixed fee covers the audit; it never buys an outcome — certification is granted only on the evidence, by an independent decision-maker.
ISO 45001 applies wherever people work, and is especially valued in higher-risk sectors. We routinely audit across:
