Safety Audits

Safety audits are intended to assure that effective program elements are in place for identifying, eliminating, or controlling hazards that could adversely impact a company’s physical and human assets. Conducted properly, this type of audit will help reduce injury and illness rates, lower workers compensation and other business costs, empower employees by involving them in activities affecting their own safety and health, increase job satisfaction, and make the company more competitive.

The goal of this lesson is to provide awareness training for managers, supervisors, and general employees on the importance of safety audits and how to plan and conduct an audit.
