The Indus Motor Company, manufacturer of Toyota vehicles in Pakistan, has adopted ISO 45001:2018.
Experts term this ISO the internationally recognised standard for Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems.
The adoption of ISO 45001 underscores IMC’s continued commitment to providing a safe, healthy, and risk-controlled work environment for all employees, contractors, and business partners.
The standard strengthens IMC’s systematic approach to hazard identification. And risk assessment, legal compliance, and continual improvement in occupational health and safety performance.
Commenting on the achievement, Ali Asghar Jamali, IMC CEO, stated: “At IMC, safety is not a priority that changes—it is a core value. In line with the Toyota philosophy of ‘Safety First,’ we believe that a safe and healthy workplace is fundamental to operational excellence and long-term sustainability.
“The adoption of ISO 45001 reflects our responsibility to eliminate risks. Protect our people, and ensure that every individual returns home safely every day.”
The CEO further emphasised that integrating safety into daily operations and decision-making stood essential for building a resilient organisation. And fostering a strong safety culture across all levels of the company.
With the implementation of ISO 45001, IMC reinforces its position as a responsible, people-focused, and safety-driven organisation. It enhanced confidence among employees, customers, stakeholders, and the wider community.
