ISO 45001:2018 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for an occupational health and safety management system (OH&S). It provides a framework for organizations to manage and improve their occupational health and safety performance. The standard aims to prevent work-related injuries, ill health, and fatalities, as well as to provide a safe and healthy work environment.

ISO 14001:2015 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for an environmental management system (EMS). It is part of the ISO 14000 family of standards, which provides organizations with a framework to effectively manage their environmental responsibilities.

Consent to Establish: CTE is required to be secured prior to the establishment of plant, industry, or process.  The consent to establish (CTE) serves as a primary clearance.

Consent to Operate: Once the Plant, industry, or process is set up as per mandatory pollution control system*, the units are required to secure CTO i.e. Consent to Operate.

ISO 14001 deals with environmental issues which need to audit different industries, stakeholders, and their beneficiaries. This can be achieved in two ways; one way is through internal audit by all and second is third party audit by all. In the next decade there will be a requirement of 1 million lead auditors (approximately) for ISO 14001 as per the current survey. The lead auditor of ISO 14001 will be trained for internal auditing as well as external auditing and after going through five days course and qualifying the examination the lead auditor certificate will be awarded to the successful participants through ‘Exemplar Global’ (which is renowned internationally). After becoming lead auditor, they can practice independently as lead auditor alternately. Alternatively, they can join different organizations according to requirement and as per vacancies. Also, they can send us a consent letter (which we will share after being successfully becoming lead auditor) and they can participate as a learner with our group G C Consultancy Services to gain experience in field. For that they will be paid suitably.
