According to data from the International Labour Organization (ILO), there are nearly 400 million non-fatal work-related injuries throughout the world each year. Additionally, there are nearly 3 million deaths resulting from work injuries annually.
In this issue, the ISO certification experts at AEGIS Services will explain how ISO 45001 can play a vital role in protecting your workers and shielding your bottom line.
What is ISO 45001?
ISO 45001 is the global standard for workplace health and safety. By implementing these standards, you set the stage for the best possible working conditions in your business or organization. The ISO 45001 protocols make the identification and correction of potential hazards much easier.
How can ISO 45001 save me money?
When your workers are sick or injured, productivity is affected. At the worldwide scale, the ILO estimates that accidents and work-related illnesses costs the global economy $3 trillion annually.
Implementation of ISO 45001 should be at the forefront of just about every business owner’s mind, as the global workforce is growing older with the potential to be less healthy. ILO data confirms that 52% of the global workforce is overweight, and 38% report extreme pressure from work.
The return on investment (ROI) of ISO 45001 is well worth the effort.
- You’re able to identify weak points. With the ISO system in place, weaknesses are weeded out, and checkpoints are put in place at each step of the production process.
- The reduction of downtime from injuries and illnesses. Because the amount of time normally associated with injuries and illnesses in the workplace are lessened, the associated costs – including medical claims, lost work days, etc. – are decreased as well.
- The decrease of legal liability. The businesses and organizations that do not take proactive measures to ensure the safety of their workers are at great risk of legal liability. The only thing that limits the size of any potential penalty will be the severity of any accidents. Having the framework of ISO 45001 in place can protect the business, reduce the likelihood of accidents, and provide a shield from potential lawsuits.
- Customer base will grow because of dependability. ISO 45001 certification is tangible evidence for customers to realize your business or organization can be counted on to deliver a particular product on time, and with no associated risks.
