Publication of ISO 45001 appears likely to be delayed until well into 2017 after participating members “disapproved” the draft circulated in January (I found no official info from ISO/PC 283 at the ISO site, however).
According to a press release dated from today, from a CB, there were over 3,000 comments offered to the DIS and they will have to be dispositioned. It is no secret that an ISO OHS management system standard has been torpedoed twice before, by some heavy weight delegations. If the chair of the TC 283 is not "politically savvy", while forceful, simultaneously, we might see several cycles of DIS before the document moves forward to FDIS stage.
I've heard rumors that the OEM Automotive Companies are going to require compliance of suppliers to ISO 45001 once it is released. Has anyone else heard anything to this effect?
