OHSAS 18001 2007
OH&S GAP ANALYSIS TOOL

Our gap analysis tool will allow you to compare your current OH&S
practices with the new OHSAS 18001 2007 OH&S management
standard. This comparison will pinpoint the areas that fall short of
the new standard (the gaps). Once you know where to focus your
attention, you can begin to make the changes that are needed to
comply with the standard.

Our gap analysis process consists of six questionnaires, one
for each of the six Parts (4.1 to 4.6) that make up the core of the
OHSAS 18001 standard. In total, there are 561 questions, one for
each of the requirements that make up the standard.

Part 4.1 starts with some very general questions. The rest of the Gap
Analysis (Parts 4.2 to 4.6) discusses these general questions in greater
detail. Because of this we suggest that you use the general questions
in Part 4.1 to give you an overview of what the rest of the OHSAS 18001
standard expects you to do. Your detailed Gap Analysis will be carried
out as you answer the specific questions in Parts 4.2 to 4.6.

For each question, two answers are possible: YES or NO. Answer
each question by selecting one of these two answers. A YES answer
means you’re in compliance with the standard while a NO answer means
you’re not in compliance. NO answers reveal gaps that exist between the
OHSAS 18001 2007 standard and your organization’s OH&S practices.
To the right of your answers, you will find a space that you can use to
record any comments or observations you might have.

Once you’ve completed all six questionnaires, study your NO
answers and your comments and use them to develop your own
unique OHSAS 18001 Compliance Plan. Use the associated questions
to formulate actions or steps that need to be taken in order to bring
your OH&S practices into compliance.
