Internal Audits Enhance Effectiveness and Compliance
Internal audits are a key requirement of all management system standards. They enable critical self-assessment and examine whether the required measures are being effectively implemented and sustained over time. The findings are incorporated into the management review and form an important basis for continuous improvement.
Furthermore, ISO 45001 requires that the results of internal audits are also communicated to employees and other relevant interested parties. The basis for conducting these audits is a structured audit programme. It defines which audits take place when and who is responsible for planning and carrying them out. It also includes the requirement to take action to address non-conformities and to continuously improve occupational health and safety (OHS).
