What is the importance of ISO 45001 implementation?

ISO 45001 is an international standard for occupational health and safety (OHS) management systems that aims to improve worker safety, reduce workplace risks, and create safer and healthier working conditions. The implementation of this standard provides many benefits for companies, in terms of safety, legal compliance, and operational efficiency.

PT Phapros Tbk has implemented ISO 45001:2018 since 2019. On January 16-21, 2025, PT Phapros Tbk conducted an ISO 45001 Recertification Audit with PT LRQA Business Assurance and Inspection Services Indonesia with a scope of manufacturing. The audit was carried out by relevant departments, ranging from field visits to document checks.

Visits to the production area were carried out not only during the morning shift, but also the night shift to ensure that the implementation of ISO 45001 was carried out by all employees on all shifts.

The implementation of ISO 45001 helps organizations systematically identify and control OSH-related risks. By implementing this standard, companies can reduce work accidents and occupational diseases, provide a safer and healthier work environment for employees, and increase worker awareness and participation in maintaining safety. The implementation of ISO 45001 also ensures compliance with regulations because each country has strict OSH regulations.

By adopting ISO 45001, companies can ensure that they comply with national and international OSH regulations, reduce the risk of legal sanctions and fines for regulatory violations, and build better relationships with regulatory agencies and the government. The implementation of ISO 45001 aims to improve productivity and efficiency, a safe work environment increases employee comfort and productivity.

In addition to the interests of employee safety, regulatory compliance and productivity, the implementation of ISO 45001 is expected to improve the company's reputation by projecting a positive image to customers, business partners and investors. The implementation of ISO 45001 is not only about compliance, but also about creating a culture of safety within the organization. With this standard, companies can increase employee involvement in risk reporting and control, build better communication regarding OSH aspects, and create a more proactive work environment in handling potential hazards.
