TS EN ISO 45001/A1

TS EN ISO 45001/A1 is an Amendment 1 to TS EN ISO 45001 for occupational health and safety management systems, and its theme is climate action-related changes. As an amendment, it updates the parent management system standard rather than replacing its core logic. In practical terms, it helps align occupational health and safety language and context with current climate-related considerations while preserving the underlying framework of the standard.

Occupational health and safety management systems in context

The ISO 45001 family is built around identifying hazards, controlling occupational health and safety risks, and continually improving working conditions. Management system standards focus on organizational processes such as policy, leadership, planning, operation, performance evaluation, and improvement rather than on a single piece of equipment or a standalone test method. In this case, the amendment should be understood as a conceptual update that supports interpreting OHS objectives alongside climate-related change, energy transition, supply-chain effects, and evolving work patterns.

What this amendment means in practice

• It supports alignment of occupational health and safety terminology with contemporary climate-related context.
• It helps organizations consider how climate-driven changes may affect working conditions through a management-system lens.
• It is an amendment to the parent standard, not an independent OHS management system standard.
• It preserves the core structure of ISO 45001 while placing it in a broader sustainability and risk context.
