AS/NZS 4801 has been withdrawn. We help organisations still operating to it transition cleanly to ISO 45001.
AS/NZS 4801 has been withdrawn and is no longer recognised by JAS-ANZ accredited bodies for new certifications. The path forward is ISO 45001. We help organisations transition cleanly without losing the investment in the existing system.
AS/NZS 4801 was the Australian/New Zealand standard for occupational health and safety management systems, but it has been withdrawn and is no longer recognised by JAS-ANZ accredited bodies for new certifications. If your organisation is still working to 4801 - or holds a legacy certificate - we’ll help with a clean transition to ISO 45001 that preserves the work already done.
Identify which parts of the existing 4801 system meet 45001 as-is, and which need updating.
Refresh manual, procedures and risk methodology to match 45001 structure and intent.
A combined audit that verifies the gap closures and issues a 45001 certificate.
Standard 45001 annual surveillance from there - no parallel system to maintain.
Organisations with existing AS/NZS 4801 systems, or those whose contractor agreements still reference 4801 and need updating.
Existing certificates that haven’t expired are still valid until expiry, but they cannot be renewed. New certifications under 4801 are not available.
It’s common - and worth checking whether they’ve updated their contract templates. ISO 45001 is the accepted equivalent.
Often yes. Transition activities can be run concurrently to minimise audit time and cost.
