Do I Need a Legal Register for ISO 45001?
ISO 45001 is the international standard for Occupational Health & Safety Management and includes a number of requirements orgasnisations need to implement in order to be compliant.
Some of these related to legal and regulatory requirements such as:
- Clause 6.1.3 Determination of legal requirements and other requirements,
- Clause 9.1.2 Evaluation of compliance,
While ISO 45001 does not mandate a legal register explicitly, it is recommended for organisations seeking ISO 45001 certification. A legal register can be a valuable tool in achieving compliance with the standard. It helps organisations identify and address legal obligations related to OHS, align their practices with regulatory requirements, and reduce the risk of non-compliance.
What is an ISO 45001 Legal Register?
An ISO 45001 legal register is a comprehensive document that outlines all the relevant legal requirements and obligations related to occupational health and safety for a particular organisation. It serves as a central repository of legal information that helps organisations understand and comply with applicable laws, regulations, and standards.
Resilify has a legal register template that can be downloaded to help you get started.
