Hi,
In the exam we will be in a scenario. In OHSAS 45001 context is included. So, example;
There is a supplier involved in the scenario; we can imagine is delivering materials, for instance. If all Health&Safety is applied to all elements involved in a situation, putting them all at the same level of H&S care (ILO-OSH 2001; include all affected by organization), we have to request same level of compliance with HSMS to the deliverer?
Thank you in advance for any clarification.

Hi Esther
The "context of an organisation" asks you to consider the context that your organisation operates in , and consider how it will affect your risk management process, needs of external parties, resources etc.
For example the context that a grocery store operates in is very different that of a nuclear power plant:
- Different laws and regulations
- Different level of risk
- Different customers...
For a supplier what is the business context that that business is affected by:
- traffic laws
- risks that apply (road traffic accident, hitting pedestrians, loading failure etc).
- environmental aspects
The clause just asks you to consider the context and asks you to apply your findings within 45001 (i.e. H&S, Hazards & Risk Management).

Thank you very much, QS.
I thought maybe could be affected by the safety rules from the organization is delivering to, being in that organization facilities.
Thank you.
