Inspections

Inspections offer a direct means for determining whether your workplace is operating safely, efficiently and in compliance with applicable requirements. In fact, performing inspections of various types is required by numerous environmental and occupational health and safety regulations. They also serve to assess compliance with internal business standards, measure progress toward completion of company goals and objectives, and are a valuable tool for driving continuous improvement.

In addition to facilitating greater workplace EHS performance, having workers outside of traditional EHS management roles participate in your inspection program is one of the most effective ways to engage employees with your overall workplace EHS management program. It makes workers directly accountable for monitoring and improving workplace EHS performance, and an inclusive and responsive inspection program provides a clear signal to your employees that they are valued members of the organization, and that management is proactive in improving health, safety and sustainability.
