Hosted jointly by International Standards Organisation (ISO) and the Lloyd’s Register Foundation Global ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Evidence Centre, the event will present findings from major studies undertaken by Harvard University, Italy’s Istituto nazionale per l'assicurazione contro gli infortuni sul lavoro (INAIL) and Accredia, and Denmark's National Research Centre for the Working Environment.
Building on existing work from the Global ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Evidence Centre on the effectiveness of OHS interventions and leading indicators, the discussion will explore whether implementation of an OHS management system based on a recognised standard leads to measurable improvements in workplace safety and health. We will also look at the factors that support effective implementation and consider how research evidence can inform the ongoing development of the ISO 45000 series.
By the end of the webinar, participants will:
- Understand the latest evidence on the effectiveness of OHS management systems, particularly ISO 45001.
- Gain insight into key mechanisms and organisational factors that influence outcomes.
- Consider how evidence can be integrated into standards development.
- Reflect on implications for future revisions within the ISO 45000 series.
This event will be of interest to anyone involved in improving OHS, including practitioners, ISO committee members, auditors and certification professionals, organisational management and leadership, compliance and risk teams, researchers, educators and training providers.
