Auditing is an important tool for gap analysis in your health and safety plans and practices. This is one area of your business that you don’t want to ignore.
Avid Plus have experienced and qualified auditors who can help you with your health and safety audit needs. They will review your documentation, talk to your managers and team, and review your workplace to get a complete picture of where you are currently. Following the audit, a report will be provided detailing the outcomes, areas for improvement and depending on the type of audit, advise on how to implement these improvements.
There are many reasons why it is important to have regular audits; such as:
Identify gaps in the system (regulatory or best practice)
Identify areas for improvement
Determine if the current health and safety management system is working effectively
Provide information for developing an action plan
Confirm due diligence requirements are being met

WorkSafe NZ SafePlus Assessment
