The path to ISO 45001
Six steps from first conversation to ISO 45001. AMS and our consultants handle each one with you.
- 1Scope
Define which sites, teams, processes and systems ISO 45001 will cover.
- 2Gap assessment
Compare what you do today with every ISO 45001 requirement and list what is missing.
- 3Documents
Write the policies, procedures and records ISO 45001 expects, starting with the oh&s policy.
- 4Implement and collect evidence
Put the processes into daily work and capture proof that they run, on a schedule.
- 5Internal review
Check readiness with an internal audit or self-assessment, and close the findings.
- 6Certification audit
An accredited certification body runs a stage 1 document review and a stage 2 audit, then issues the certificate. Surveillance audits follow every year.

How long does ISO 45001 implementation take?
Most organizations need about 10–16 weeks, depending on size, number of sites and how much is already in place. A gap assessment gives a firm estimate.
What documents does ISO 45001 require?
Core documents usually include: oh&s policy, hazard identification and risk assessment, legal register, incident investigation records, emergency drill records. AMS drafts them from your actual processes and keeps them under version control.
Can ISO 45001 be combined with other standards?
Yes. ISO 45001 is often run together with ISO 22301, ISO 37001, ISO 28000. AMS maps shared requirements, so one record can count toward several standards.
How does AMS help with ISO 45001?
AMS runs the full ISO 45001 program: scoping, gap assessment, documents, evidence capture, internal audits, corrective actions and the audit pack for your certification body.
