Hello everyone, I’m seeking some clarification regarding the work experience requirements for ISO 45001 certification. Specifically, does the work experience have to solely be ISO 45001? I have experience auditing Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (OSHMS) for MNC that are not specifically ISO 45001. Would this experience be considered valid for the certification, or is ISO 45001 the only acceptable standard? Any insights or experiences you can share would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Hello Walter

Regarding your work experience, this is a great question.  You can find details on the requirements for Personnel Certification with Exemplar Global as a ISO45001 Management Systems Auditor in the 'Our Services' area of the Community: https://community.exemplarglobal.org/our-services/individual-certifications/health--safety-environment-and-security 

I'm sure others in the community will have insights and experiences to share.  All the best!
