ISO 45001 resistance from company management and employees

Making change in an organization can be difficult with resistance, especially from management and supervisors. The only real way to deal with this is to focus on the benefits that the management system will give you. I would suggest not talking about the certification, as many people don’t understand this, but rather on the benefits of having a systematic system in place for managing OH&S and improving workplace safety to prevent injury and ill health.

Another thing to consider is finding those who are in favor of the change, after explaining the benefits, and working with them to help convince others.
