Abstract

Integration of management systems according to International Organization for Standardization - ISO (Annex SL: High Level Structure) brings positive and negative aspects in Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) management system implementation.

All the management processes of the OH&S are presently introduced in new standard ISO 45001:2018.

OH&S management system together with quality and environmental management system create the strongest trinity, historically applicable in more than 80% industry companies.

However, despite the strong history of the management systems, there has been a crucial change in ISO requirements. Risk Analyses of those risks, which have big impact on business objectives, influence the level of integration. External and internal processes have big impact on Risk Management and the process of Risk Assessment is necessary to consider as a part of holistic system of Risk Management.

This paper focuses on application of Risk-based Thinking methodology and its using in optimization of OH&S management processes.
