Verifying Your Commitment to Workplace Safety

An ISO 45001 Certification Audit validates that your Occupational Health & Safety (OH&S) Management System is properly implemented and effective. Conducted by BQCIS as an independent accredited body, this process demonstrates due diligence and organizational commitment to preventing injury and ill health.

Stage 1 – Documentation & Readiness Review: Auditors evaluate OH&S scope, policy, risk assessment records, and legal compliance to confirm readiness for the certification stage.

Stage 2 – Implementation & Effectiveness Audit: On-site evaluation verifies the application of risk controls, worker participation, emergency response, and continual-improvement practices.

Reviewing documentation, scope, and compliance mechanisms to confirm the OH&S system meets ISO 45001 prerequisites before on-site auditing.

Stage 2: Implementation Audit
