The safety audit is a critical assessment of an organisations health and safety management system focusing on policy, organisation, planning, implementation, monitoring, audit and review.
The safety audit evaluates your organisations health and safety programme, covering everything from management systems, to the day-to-day details of an organisations housekeeping - it enables you to see "where you are now" with respect to your health and safety activities.
The purpose of the audit is to rate a safety management programme, catalogue its strengths and weaknesses and identify areas for improvement. Where necessary, this involves obtaining commitments and target dates for correcting problems from the managers involved.
At Safetyboss, we believe the audit should not be regarded as a fault-finding process, but as a positive experience for everyone involved in workplace health and safety.
