Global Energy Up is an independent certification body for management systems and a validation and verification body for greenhouse-gas information. We audit and decide; we do not consult.

Occupational health and safety

ISO 45001:2018
Occupational health and safety

Incidents fall when hazards are managed before they are experienced.

ISO 45001 certification demonstrates that an organization eliminates hazards and reduces occupational health and safety risks through a system in which workers are consulted and take part.

Who it is for. Construction, manufacturing, energy, oil and gas, logistics and facilities management — and any employer with significant occupational risks.

  • Hazard identification and assessment of OH&S risks and opportunities
  • Consultation and participation of workers and their representatives
  • Legal and other requirements and the evaluation of compliance
  • Hierarchy of controls, management of change and procurement, including contractors
  • Incident investigation, nonconformity and corrective action
  • Emergency preparedness and performance evaluation

Each area above is assessed on objective evidence — records, interviews and direct observation of work.

How the audit runs

Remote auditing never reduces the required audit time.

01.
Stage 1

Review of documentation, readiness and scope, and planning of Stage 2.

02.
Stage 2

On-site evaluation of implementation and effectiveness; findings are recorded.

03.
Decision & surveillance

An independent decision, then annual surveillance through the three-year cycle.

Why organizations seek it

01

Fewer workplace accidents and health risks

02

Demonstrated compliance with legal requirements

03

Better morale and productivity

04

Lower incident-related costs and reputational damage

Certification gives independent confidence in the system; it does not by itself guarantee any commercial outcome.

Edition and transition

Audits are conducted against ISO 45001:2018 including Amendment 1:2024, which requires the organization to consider whether climate change is a relevant issue.

Auditing with other standards

Where the system is integrated with others, the standards can be audited together in one visit; duration is calculated for each standard and then adjusted for the actual degree of integration.

  • What do I need to apply?
    Legal name, sites, scope of activities, headcount and shift pattern, outsourced processes, any existing certificate, and whether you received consultancy on the system and from whom.
  • Why do you ask about consultancy?
    Because we do not certify a system on which a body related to us provided consultancy, and every application is screened for conflicts of interest before it is accepted.
