Offices, retail stores, and other businesses all have occupational risks. It’s important to conduct routine risk mitigation checks to ensure safety. These inspections may be required by the state, or by your insurance company. Even if routine inspections aren’t mandated, they are crucial for putting safety at the forefront.
Safety and health compliance audits and inspections are cost-effective tools for a construction manager. In such an audit, our experienced site safety professionals are trained to ascertain compliance issues, inspect your construction site, and recommend corrective action as necessary.
Varying by your needs and the size of your job, the typical safety audit includes a site inspection followed by a written report. The audit report includes digital photographs itemizing the would-be citations and their respective safety code references. The referenced codes include city, state, and federal OSHA regulations.
The report also includes items that can be used as benchmarking data for your company.
Timely incident investigations are crucial to reduce lag time after an incident and ensure facts are collected, in turn, reducing claims costs.
