OSH STANDARD EXPERT - MALAYSIA
Principles as standard technical expert (the dos and don’ts)
◦ Consistency – potential confusion by users
◦ Clarity – will not discuss interpretation
◦ Potential misinterpretation due to language barrier/common
English term vs standard term
◦ Potential contradiction with Malaysia’s OSH related legislations
(OSHA, FMA, Fire Services Act etc)
◦ Issues, especially for Malaysia’s organisations (SMEs), regional
interest, other relevant interest

◦ Task Group 4 identified emerging issues
◦ Realized that the standard has potential to be ineffective
and out-dated
◦ Revision will address
◦ necessary updated Annex L changes on term, more unifications
◦ potentially improved coverage of agility, culture & behaviours leading
to improved organizational resilience
ISO 45001 Survey (ends 1st December 2021)
The Technical Committee is consulting national standards bodies on whether to
begin revising the standard.
The aim is
◦ To better understand what parts of the standard work well
◦ Which clause - hard to understand, or too demanding, or not demanding
enough.
◦ Opinions on adjustments may be needed to reflect the changing world of
work.
