Audits and Monitoring
Safety audits offered by DO Safety First are designed to help you and your company through the most recent developments in best practices in regard to the occupational health & safety act and applicable regulations. Our highly skilled staff of health and safety auditors work throughout the UK in various industries to help you improve your results.
An Occupational health and safety (OHS) audit is an organized procedure for gathering impartial information on the overall system’s efficiency, effectiveness, and reliability, as well as developing remedial action plans. OHS audits look at each stage of the occupational health and safety (OHS) management system, testing compliance with the controls that the company has implemented, with the goal of determining its effectiveness and future validity.
The delivery of audits can be broken down into four key stages:
- Planning: The personnel designated as responsible according to the company’s OHS audit plan appoints an audit manager and compose an audit team
- Execution: The audit team conducts the audit, which will consist of pre-assessment, interviews, inspections, and a final meeting
- Reporting: The OHS audit manager submits the audit report to the manager of the audited company or work place, who will, in turn, share it with the company’s board and other stakeholders
- Archiving: OHS audit reports are archived according to very strict criteria
