ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH, & SAFETY AUDITING |
|
An EHS audit is a key piece of your EHS management system, assessing your compliance with applicable Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards to ensure that your EHS management system performs as intended.
The appropriate frequency and scheduling of EHS audits can be challenging. If you perform audits too infrequently, your workers, supervisors, and managers may become complacent between audits, only ramping up their compliance efforts as the audit dates approach. On the other hand, auditing EHS compliance too frequently can leave your personnel feeling overwhelmed, unable to correct deficiencies turned up in the last audit before the next one starts.
You may want to balance periodic, formal audits with routine checks of compliance in specific areas, departments, or workflows. Some companies use both routine audits performed by internal EHS staff combined with periodic comprehensive audits performed by third-party auditors.
Performing EHS audits provides a measure of the effectiveness of the overall EHS Management System to local, corporate leadership, and other stakeholders and assists in identifying priorities for risk reduction and resource planning, process improvement, business continuity planning, and advancing the sustainability of the EHS function.
Ensure your audit teams final deliverable includes a comprehensive audit report that provides a detailed description of all audit findings and recommendations.
