ISO 45001 is the first global occupational health and safety management system
standard that replaces OHSAS 18001. The IECB Certified ISO 45001 Lead Auditor
training course helps in developing the necessary skillset to perform
occupational health and safety management system (OH&S MS) audits by applying
widely recognized audit principles, procedures, and methods.
ABOUT THIS COURSE
This training course has been developed to reflect the importance of an
effective internal audit. It strengthens your knowledge and skills to plan and
carry out an OH&S MS audit in compliance with the guidelines for auditing
management systems provided in ISO 19011 and the certification process described
in ISO/IEC 17021-1.
The exercises provided for this training course are designed to help you
practice the most important aspects of an OH&S MS audit: ISO 45001 requirements,
auditing principles, tools and techniques used to obtain evidence, leading a
team of auditors, conducting interviews with auditees, reviewing documented
information, drafting nonconformity reports, and preparing the final audit
report.
The successful completion of the training course is followed by an exam. If you
pass the exam, you gain the 'Certified ISO 45001 Internal Auditor' credential,
which validates your professional capabilities and demonstrates your ability to
audit an OH&S MS based on ISO 45001.
