Occupational Health and Safety Management System

ISO 45001 — for companies whose safety record is already being scored.

Prevent. Document. Demonstrate.

ISO 45001:2018 is the international standard for occupational health and safety management system. Done well, it cuts injury rates, lowers the experience modification rate that drives your insurance premiums, and gives customers, contractor pre-qualification platforms, and regulators documented proof that safety is managed — not improvised. Done poorly, it becomes a binder that doesn’t survive the first incident investigation. You can get the Standard here .

MSI has spent nearly three decades building safety management systems that hold up under OSHA scrutiny, customer audits, and contractor pre-qualification — for industrial manufacturers, construction and field-service firms, and the kind of operators whose safety metrics decide whether they win the contract. We adapt the standard to how work actually gets done on your floor and in your field, not the other way around.

Our Approach

Skip the gap analysis. Start building the safety system that gets you certified.

Most safety consultants open with a months-long gap analysis. We don’t. If you’re not certified today, you’re already roughly 90% non-compliant — paying to document that in detail is budget that should be going toward the actual safety system. We’d rather spend it getting you certified.

SurePath is a holistic engagement, not a task list. We embed with your operations and EHS team, identify your real hazards and occupational risks, and build the OHSMS around how work actually gets done.

01

Holistic Onboarding

We start with your operations, not a clause checklist. In the first weeks we walk your facilities and job sites, map where the real hazards and high-risk tasks live, and understand the safety performance leadership needs to defend to OSHA, customers, and pre-qualification platforms.

02

Hazard ID, Risk & OHSMS Design

We identify your significant hazards and occupational health risks, prioritize the ones that matter, and build documentation — policy, objectives, operational controls, and emergency preparedness — that reflects how your team actually manages safety on the ground.

03

Internal Audit & Training

We train your internal auditors, run a full OHSMS internal audit against the standard, and close findings before the registrar walks in. Your team owns the system — and can defend it — by the time we’re done.

04

Certification Audit Support

We sit with you through stage 1 and stage 2 registrar audits, respond to findings in real time, and stay engaged through surveillance audits year-over-year. 100% first-attempt success rate across 80+ SurePath engagements.

Business Outcomes

What ISO 45001 actually delivers when it's implemented well.

Beyond the certificate on the wall, companies with mature safety systems have fewer incidents, lower insurance costs, and win contracts that require proof of a managed OHSMS.

Bid Eligibility

Contractor Pre-Qualification

Qualify. Score. Win.

Satisfy ISNetworld, Avetta, ComplyWorks, and customer EHS audits with a certified OHSMS. ISO 45001 is increasingly the threshold that decides whether you’re even eligible to bid.

Operations

Fewer Incidents, Lower Cost

Prevent. Reduce. Save.

Cut injury rates, lost-time incidents, and the experience modification rate that drives your workers’ comp premiums. A working safety system pays for itself in claims and downtime avoided.

Risk

OSHA & Liability Defense

Anticipate. Document. Withstand.

Surface safety risk before it surfaces you. A certified OHSMS gives you a documented compliance posture for OSHA, a defensible record after an incident, and a clean safety narrative for customers and insurers.

After Certification

Getting certified is the start. Staying certified is the work.

Certification isn't a finish line — it's annual surveillance audits, management reviews, internal audits, and documentation that drifts the moment the registrar leaves. SureResults™ is MSI's maintenance program: a dedicated consultant who already knows your system and handles the internal audits, registrar coordination, and ongoing improvements year-round, so nothing slips between audit cycles.

MSI clients average 0–1 findings at surveillance audits — and 85% of the systems we implement stay with SureResults.

In Their Words

Built around the work, not bolted on to it.

MSI didn't walk in with a template. They spent time on our floor, understood where our real hazards lived, and built a safety system our supervisors could actually run. We passed certification on the first attempt and have defended it through every surveillance audit since.

Pair It With

ISO 45001 + ISO 14001: Safety and environmental, integrated.

Many of our clients run ISO 45001 alongside ISO 14001 as a single EHS management system — one set of leadership rituals, one document architecture, one internal audit program covering both safety and environment. Building them together is typically faster and more cost-effective than sequencing them.

Find Your Fit

Not sure ISO 45001 is where you should start?

ISO 45001 is the standard for worker safety and contractor pre-qualification — but most companies begin with ISO 9001, the foundation the others build on. The right standard comes down to one question: who are your customers, and what are they asking you to prove?

Whichever you start with, the goal is the same: a management system that helps you win better customers, enter new markets, and scale without the wheels coming off. Certification gets you in the door — and ongoing ISO maintenance keeps you there, audit after audit. Not sure which fits? Let's talk it through.
