5 Important Steps to an Effective Safety Audit
An effective Safety audit is one that has be proven to ensure that the business has a safety program in place to reduce incidents and mitigate safety risk to their workers. Most importantly, “in place” means policies and procedures that have been tested, trained, and demonstrated in practice, as evidenced by the audit program.

"The planning step is the key to the entire process, since the audit plan defines the procedures and sets the safety test baseline.

Part of the team’s training is to ensure a well-documented report that details any variances to the audit baseline, important audit findings and describe things that are working well in addition to any problem areas. Problem areas or negative finding are addressed in the recommended actions section of the audit report to start the process improvement efforts needed.
Step #4: Set Corrective Action Plans and Process Improvements in Motion
The audit execution and report go beyond a simple pass/fail approach. The findings should contribute to the continuous process improvement effort towards optimal workplace safety. Audit findings may identify significant corrective actions that need to be immediately set in place for worker safety, but most often baseline variations and input from workforce are addressed as part of continual improvement activity. Process improvement follow-up would include prioritizing tasks, with assignments and suspense dates.
