Introduction to PR
Overview
Health and Safety Inspections and Auditing tools are crucial to the development of safety management systems to demonstrate continuous improvement and serve as inter-business benchmarking.
Auditing promotes the integration of risk control into the culture of the organisation. The conducting of audits in a formalised systematic approach will identify risk exposures, provide an opportunity to specify risk reductions and help to structure long term continual improvements.
