Key takeaways
- Annex SL is the common framework harmonizing all modern ISO management system standards.
- Every Annex SL standard shares the same ten-clause structure, terminology, and PDCA logic.
- Organizations certified to ISO 9001 or ISO 14001 will recognize most of the ISO 45001 architecture.
- Clauses 1 through 3 are introductory while clauses 4 through 10 contain the actual requirements.
- The shared structure makes integrated management systems easier to design, audit, and maintain.
- ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 all sit on the same Annex SL backbone.
