In 2024, the demand for ISO certifications in Mauritius is expected to grow significantly as businesses strive to enhance their operational efficiency and market credibility. With the global emphasis on sustainability and data security, ISO 14001 and ISO/IEC 27001 certifications are anticipated to see a substantial increase. Moreover, the tourism and hospitality sector, a crucial part of Mauritius’ economy, is likely to prioritize ISO 22000 to ensure food safety and ISO 9001 to enhance service quality.

Key ISO Standards for Businesses in Mauritius

ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management Systems)
This standard is based on several quality management principles, including a strong customer focus, the motivation and implication of top management, the process approach, and continual improvement. It is suitable for all organizations, large or small, across various sectors.

ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management Systems)
ISO 14001 specifies the requirements for an effective environmental management system (EMS). It provides a framework that an organization can follow, rather than establishing environmental performance requirements.

ISO 45001:2018 (Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems)
ISO 45001 provides a framework to increase safety, reduce workplace risks, and enhance health and well-being at work, enabling an organization to proactively improve its occupational health and safety (OH&S) performance.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (Information Security Management Systems)
ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security management. It helps organizations manage the security of assets such as financial information, intellectual property, employee details, and information entrusted by third parties.

ISO 22000:2018 (Food Safety Management Systems)
ISO 22000:2018 sets out the requirements for a food safety management system and can be certified to it. It maps out what an organization needs to do to demonstrate its ability to control food safety hazards to ensure that food is safe.

ISO 13485:2016 (Medical Devices — Quality Management Systems)
