Health and Safety Audits in Scotland
A health and safety audit is a demonstration of the management’s commitment to monitor and improve, where necessary, the effectiveness of the company’s health and safety management system from top to bottom.
At H&SM we carry out health and safety compliance audits for construction firms, engineering companies, manufacturers, and many other industries. We’re based in West Lothian and work with businesses all over Scotland and across the UK.
The process of conducting health and safety audits, requires evaluating the findings and implementing remedial action, where necessary, in a continuous circle of improvement.
The main requirements of a health and safety compliance audit will include:
• A critical examination of the whole operation.
• An assessment of how the risks to health and safety are being managed.
• The identification of the efficient and safe performance of people.
• The detection and identification of falling standards, ineffective company procedures, and non-compliance with industry standards and legal requirements.
• The use of meaningful standards consistent with the organisation’s operation.
• The identification and implementation of a corrective action plan.
As health and safety consultants we can not only carry out a health and safety audit for your business, but we can also provide advice, guidance, and training to help you improve your organisations health and safety system.
