Section 6.1.2 — Hazard identification and risk assessment
6.1.2.1 Hazard identification
The organization establishes and maintains an ongoing, proactive process to identify hazards arising from work activities, the work environment, equipment, materials and people. The process considers routine and non-routine activities, the conduct and capabilities of people, past incidents, emergency situations and how work is actually performed.
6.1.2.2 Assessment of OH&S risks
Identified hazards are assessed by combining the likelihood of harm with the severity of the consequence, using defined criteria so that results are consistent and comparable. Each risk is ranked to set priority for control.
Hierarchy of controls
Controls are selected from the top of the hierarchy down, choosing the most effective option that is reasonably practicable before relying on lower levels.
- Eliminate the hazard.
- Substitute with a less hazardous material, process or equipment.
- Apply engineering controls and reorganise the work.
- Use administrative controls, including training and procedures.
- Provide personal protective equipment.

What Are OH&S Procedures?
OH&S procedures are documented methods that describe how your organisation carries out specific health and safety activities. They translate the requirements of ISO 45001 into step-by-step instructions that workers and managers can follow consistently. Well-written procedures reduce ambiguity, improve safety performance, and provide auditors with clear evidence of a functioning management system.

How Each Procedure is Structured
Every procedure follows a consistent format that includes the purpose and scope, references to relevant ISO 45001 clauses, defined roles and responsibilities, step-by-step process description, required records and forms, and related documented information. This standardised structure makes procedures easy to follow, audit, and maintain over time.
Who Needs These Procedures?
Any organisation implementing or maintaining an ISO 45001 OH&S management system benefits from well-documented procedures. They are particularly valuable for organisations preparing for initial certification, those transitioning from OHSAS 18001, and companies looking to strengthen existing safety management processes.
