Safety Audits: Does My Company Need One?

摘要

I really find it interesting how uncomfortable management, supervisors and employees get when a "Safety Audit" is mentioned. I can't help but wonder why they feel this way. I am asked occasionally to perform safety audits for contractors, coops and municipal-owned electric utility systems. It is really interesting what I sometimes find. I can't discuss in this article everything that is important and needs to be covered by a local audit, but I am going to point out a few topics that come up most often when safety audits are performed.
