This audit program can be used by organizations to determine a plant’s safety environment and ensure compliance with company and governmental requirements related to safety. 

Sample steps include: obtain an updated narrative from the plant controller, review the narrative and discuss it with the responsible person as necessary to ensure a complete understanding of the process, determine the safety manager’s qualifications, determine the plant’s annual incident rate and the industry average incident rate, and determine what systems are used to support the safety function (system to log and track workers’ comp claims).
