Auditing is the process of assurance that all the provisions of laws, rules, regulations and policies are being followed effectively. OHS Audits are riskbased, designed to manage high risk areas/processes. Higher risk areas/processes are audited more frequently than lower risk areas/processes. OHS management audits identify strengths and weaknesses within a workplace's OHS program in areas such as accountability, policy, hazard identification and control, training, communication and more.
