Abstract

[Preparedness of an organization to respond to emergency situations is now an integral part of any business. There are number of research studies conducted in Emergency preparedness and response which is now a prime interest for every stakeholder. The real challenge is every organization is different from other in terms of their capabilities and resources because One-Size doesn’t fit all; hence, addressing emergency preparedness and response require a standardization which would be interpreted to suit the context of each organization. This research study is conducted by performing an onsite audit of 200 organizations to determine the conformance on the criteria of Emergency Preparedness and Response” in accordance with ISO 45001:2018. Researcher has spent 336 man-days onsite to perform an evidence-based audit as per ISO 19011 Guidelines for auditing management system. Research study in evaluation of compliance from a management system auditor perspective is inadequate, and hence, this research gap is addressed. Enough literature, methodologies, and technology are available to address the potential emergency situations across the world; the need of the hour is to avail necessary resources and implement the concrete plans in action out of stereotyped documented information. Research data were carefully analyzed using a simple statistical tool called Jamovi. Factors influencing effective implementation on the requirements of the ISO 45001:2018 standard were identified.]
