Abstract
Enhancing the safety and health at work has significant economic importance, as addressing issues related to safety and health to create favourable work conditions and work relations brings optimization of work process and a positive economic effect. It also brings reduction of losses, greater productivity, efficiency and quality of work – that means greater prosperity for the company and the whole society. To ensure the continuous prosperity of the company, it is important to implement a control mechanism to ensure the proper functioning of the business entity. There is a general principle that only 15% of problems should be left to be solved by employees and 85% should be secured by a management system. As in other areas of business management, also in occupational health and safety, it is necessary to establish an effective management system. An example is the standard OHSAS 18001:2007, which aims to systematically limit the occupational risks that may endanger the safety and health of all persons affected by activities, products or services of the organization. The aim of the standard is to help organizations manage occupational health and safety (hereinafter OH&S) risks and improve product quality or services and organizational performance by preventing injuries and occupational diseases. This article presents the pilot version of implementation of OH&S management system in a manufacturing organization where the management decided to adopt this new structure and implement a project of the preparation of the implementation according to the requirements of the new standard ISO 45001:2017.

Despite the uniform structure, there are visible formal differences. For example the ISO 9001 standard is marked as the Chapter 5 Leadership. ISO/DIS 45001 refers to the Chapter 5 titled as Leadership and Worker Participation.
