Now if you guys are all done with "guessing", maybe we can actually supply a correct answer.
1st....The word Target has never been used with 18001 either in the original document or current revision.
2nd...To Mr. Wynne....The document is in harmony with ISO documentation when it comes to format and content.
Now here is the "Target" answer and ya'll would normally pay a whole bunch of money to hear me say this...........
The organization has to have documented Occupational Health & Safety Objectives..........no question here. Why is there no mention of targets? Targets (of a sort) are mentioned........in Section 3 "Terms and Definitions"....actually in 3.14-OHS Objective & 3.15-OHS Performance.
YOU HAVE TO USE THE WHOLE DOCUMENT! The words mean something and you have to get past using the "shall's alone.
Let's look at what the Standard says..............
3.14 OH&S objective
OH&S goal, in terms of OH&S performance (3.15), that an organization (3.17) sets itself to achieve
NOTE 1 Objectives should be quantified wherever practicable.
NOTE 2 4.3.3 requires that OH&S objectives are consistent with the OH&S policy (3.16).
3.15 OH&S performance
measurable results of an organization’s (3.17) management of its OH&S risks (3.21)
NOTE 1 OH&S performance measurement includes measuring theeffectiveness of the organization’s controls.
NOTE 2 In the context of OH&S management systems (3.13), results can also be measured against the organization’s (3.17) OH&S policy (3.16), OH&S objectives (3.14), and other OH&S performance requirements.
As you can see we have an Objective (What) and Performance (How much) which is exactly the same as ISO 14001:2004's Objectives and Targets.....ergo, harmony (for you Jim)...If you don't believe me check it out.
Guy's, I've found it best to use the tools that are supplied and not to try and guess.
Now if you really want to be messed up ask how an objective actually turns into a requirement thhat has to be met in 4.2 & 4.3.2 and evaluated in 4.5.2..

Excellent piece of information which, among other things, makes one more thing clear to me "YOU HAVE TO USE THE WHOLE DOCUMENT! The words mean something" . I really never thought on these lines.
