What is ISO 45001 Certification?

The Gold Standard for Workplace Safety.

ISO 45001:2018 is the world's first International Standard for Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S). It provides a robust framework to increase safety, reduce workplace risks, and enhance health and well-being at work.

In high-risk regions like the Middle East and India, where construction and industrial activities are booming, ISO 45001 is not just a badge—it's a critical operational requirement. It replaces the old OHSAS 18001, introducing a stronger focus on leadership commitment and worker participation.

Whether you are a contracting giant in Dubai or a manufacturing unit in Mumbai, this certification proves that you value human life and are committed to zero-accident workplaces.

Workplace Safety

Why ISO 45001 is Critical for Your Business

Safety failures cost lives and destroy reputations. Implementing ISO 45001 is the most effective way to mitigate these risks.

Protect Your People

The primary goal is to prevent work-related injury and ill-health. A safe workforce is a motivated and productive one.

Legal Compliance

Meet stringent safety regulations in UAE (OSHAD, Dubai Municipality) and India (Factories Act). Avoid hefty fines and site closures.

Win More Tenders

Government bodies and major developers in the GCC and India mandate ISO 45001 for all contractors and subcontractors.

Reduce Costs

Fewer accidents mean less downtime, reduced medical costs, and lower insurance premiums. Safety is an investment with high ROI.

Risk Management

Proactively identify hazards—working at heights, electrical safety, chemical handling—before they cause harm.

Global Recognition

Enhance your brand's reputation internationally. Clients trust partners who demonstrate a commitment to safety.
