10 Benefits Of Including Mock OSHA Audits In Your Safety Program
OSHA Audits can be nerve wracking, tedious, and costly for any business. Rather than being caught off guard by the findings of OSHA during one of their audits, we highly recommend that you implement Mock OSHA Audits into your regular safety program.
Here are 10 benefits that you’ll discover by doing so:
Identify the good parts of your safety program.
Many assume that Mock OSHA Audits are conducted strictly to identify flaws in a safety program, but they are also an opportunity to reaffirm positive aspects of your safety program.
Identify the weaknesses of your safety program.
Revealing weaknesses of your safety program through Mock Safety Audits provides your company with the opportunity to save money and potentially lives.
Identify potential problems before they become real problems.
Mock OSHA Audits not only reveal the obvious issues within your safety program, but also those problems that could evolve into serious concerns.
Gather information that could lead to more effective training.
Many companies will use the information gathered from Mock OSHA Audits to tweak their current safety training programs to become more efficient.
Provide a baseline plan for improvement.
Mock OSHA Audits regularly lead to new ideas, policies, and procedures that can boost your safety program’s success.
Provide a safer workplace for your employees.
Your employees are the wheels that make your business move, make sure they move as safe as possible. Mock OSHA Audits can be the most important piece to creating a safer work environment for your employees.
Ensure compliance with regulations.
From a business perspective, Mock OSHA Audits give your company much-needed insight into how “up-to-code” you currently are with OSHA regulations. Complying with OSHA regulations creates a safer workplace and saves you from potential fines.
Ensure responsibilities and accountabilities occur at all levels.
Workplace Safety involves absolutely everybody. Each person has their own safety responsibilities that can be the difference between an on-the-job injury or worse. Mock OSHA Audits give you the necessary test-run to make sure all parties are held accountable.
Show Management support for safety.
Creating a safety culture within your company is highly important. Mock OSHA Audits are a positive step towards building this culture, sending a message across all ranks that safety is a priority at all levels.
