Closely related to competence is awareness of the items, issues, etc. associated with competency. Awareness leads to recognition where competence relates to the application of knowledge and skills in managing risks. Understanding and knowledge of workplace hazards and risks is the historical focus here. ISO 45001:2018, as do earlier approaches, provides additional requirements regarding understanding and knowledge (awareness) of the OH&S policy and its objectives; the worker's impact to OHSMS effectiveness; consequences of not conforming with OHSMS requirements; to name a few. As well, the standard requires that workers are aware of “the ability to remove themselves from work situations that they consider present an imminent and serious danger to their life or health, as well as the arrangements for protecting them from undue consequences for doing so” (62).
