ISO 45001 Update: ISO 45001 to Move Forward With Second Draft International Standard

The recent ISO/PC283, Project Committee meeting, June 6-10, in Toronto, Canada agreed to move forward with the publication of a second Draft International Standard (DIS) for the highly anticipated ISO 45001 standard.

The first DIS of ISO 45001 failed to gain approval by the committee following a round of balloting, from February 12 to May 12, that closed with a result of 71% in favor to 29% against.
