The analysis is given concerning recently published International Standard ISO 45001:2018 «Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems. Requirements and guidance for use» from the point of view of interaction with the current Russian regulatory documents in the field of industrial safety and labor protection. The basic requirements of the new standard are compared with the current regulatory and legal acts of the Russian Federation in the field of industrial safety and labor protection. According to the conclusions drawn a majority of the requirements of the International Standard ISO 45001:2018 has already been implemented in the organizations operating hazardous production facilities in accordance with the Russian legislation. The main changes to the International Standard ISO 45001:2018 were made against the previous standard OHSAS 18001:2007 «Occupational health and safety management systems. Requirements», and they were related specifically to ensuring safety of production. Essential innovations are considered, including: distribution of the requirements per individual subitems based on hazards identification, risk assessment, identification of the possibilities, planning activities in relation to risks; significant expansion of the list of factors that need to be considered when identifying hazards in the field of occupational health and safety; appearance of even more pronounced social component; remote workplace. It is concluded that with proper and skillful use the management systems of occupational health and safety become an effective tool for successfully preventing occupational injuries, protecting health of the workers and ensuring workplaces safety.
