Safety Audit Preparation

  1. Do we have a current occupational health and safety policy? When was it last reviewed? Do we have in place a schedule to conduct an annual review?
  2. Do we have an up-to-date incident register? Are our employees regularly and effectively using the incident register?
  3. Do we have a process in place for communicating OHS issues to our employees?
  4. Do we have an appointed Health and Safety Representative in each location?
  5. Is our training up to date for all employees and Health and Safety Representatives?
  6. Are we effectively recording in the meeting minutes all OHS issues and are they stored in an easy to find and manageable location?
  7. Is our First Aid kit fully stocked and everyone is aware of how to access it and what to do if they use some of the materials?
  8. Is all of our signage up to date and appropriately displayed for any hazards?
  9. Do we have all of the required PPE, is it in good repair and within the use-by date and is it easily accessible by employees?
  10. If previous incidents have occurred, have we investigated and documented the solutions to ensure we don’t have a repeat?
  11. Do we regularly review the OHS conduct of our staff in performance reviews?
  12. Do we regularly consult with industry regarding the OHS requirements of our business?
  13. Do our inductions of new employees, including occupational health and safety procedures, include guidance on mental health?
