This Standard specifies requirements for an occupational health and safety management system (OHSMS). The purpose of this Standard is to protect and enhance worker health, safety, and well-being in the workplace and optimize OHSMS performance to prevent occupational incidents, injuries, illnesses, damage to health, and fatalities and/or reduce the severity of harm related to occupational activities and the work environment by:
a) establishing, maintaining, and improving an OHSMS that will identify and eliminate OHS hazards, and assess and control risk;
b) ensuring conformity with its OHS policy; and
c) demonstrating conformity with this Standard by
i) making a self-determination and self-declaration;
ii) receiving confirmation of its self-declaration by an outside party, independent of the organization; or iii) gaining certification/registration of its OHSMS (to this Standard) by an outside organization.

All the requirements in this Standard are intended to be incorporated into an OHSMS. The extent of the application will depend on the circumstances particular to the organization, such as the nature and location of its operations, and the conditions in which it functions.

While the scope of CSA Z1000 covers occupational health and safety, it can also be used to support other initiatives such as social responsibility and sustainability. The adoption of CSA Z1000 fits well with organizations desiring long-term sustainable growth in a socially responsible manner by reducing injury and illness and improving overall worker well-being.
