iso45001 audit pro

An occupational health and safety audit that misses a gap can end with someone hurt, and a report that cannot be traced to evidence will not survive a certification body. This skill runs an ISO 45001:2018 (incl. Amd 1:2024) audit the way a lead auditor does: from documents, worker interviews, site observations and sampled records to graded findings and a corrective action plan.

What it does

• Tailored checklist builds the audit questions for the organisation, with extra question packs for 8 sectors.
• Evidence verification checks documents, interviews (including non-managerial workers), observations and records against every clause from 4.1 to 10.3.
• Legal compliance check uses starter lists for the UK, Pakistan, Canada (federal, Ontario, Alberta), US OSHA and UAE/KSA.
• specific checks cover worker consultation (5.4), hierarchy of controls, management of change, contractors, psychosocial hazards and imminent danger.
• Strict grading classifies findings as Major NC, Minor NC or OFI, and every Major NC states which test it meets.
• CAPA plan gives each nonconformity containment, root cause, corrective action, proposed owner and due date.

Audit modes

• Internal audit
• Certification gap analysis with a 0-5 maturity score, including OHSAS 18001 or national scheme to ISO 45001
• Follow-up audit to verify closure of previous findings
• Checklist only
• Risk-based internal audit programme with audit plans, sized to headcount, with auditor independence checked

What you get

• An Excel audit workbook: executive summary, checklist, clause assessment, findings register, CAPA plan, documented information check, consistency log, verification plan, legal compliance check, key dates and evidence log.
• A client-ready Word report with verdict, strengths, findings and CAPA plan.
• Both are built from one validated data file, so the workbook and the report always agree.

Why this beats prompting it yourself

A generic prompt accepts paperwork as proof and grades inconsistently. This skill will not mark a clause as conforming without recorded evidence, marks anything it could not verify as Not Verified and lists it for site follow-up, and validates the whole audit before the reports are built.

Known limitations

• Does not include the licensed text of ISO 45001; requirements are paraphrased.
• ISO 45001:2027 is still a draft, so points from it are raised as readiness OFIs only.
• Legal starter lists are prompts for a competent auditor, not legal advice.
• Clauses that need interviews or site evidence are marked Not Verified when only documents are supplied.
• Building the Excel and Word files needs Python with openpyxl and python-docx.
