To achieve higher levels of health and safety in the workplace, regularly evaluating your company’s safety practices and programs is essential. Self-inspections and audits, especially when using checklists, help identify and improve weak areas and ensure compliance with OSHA standards. These evaluations reduce risks, enhance safety, and prepare the workplace for surprise inspections.

Checklists support consistent evaluations and can guide new safety goals. Key benefits of strong safety and health programs include fewer injuries, better legal compliance, lower costs, higher employee engagement, and improved productivity.

This checklist addresses topics such as:

• Hazard communication (HazCom)
• Injury and illness prevention
• Emergency response
• Environmental documentation
• Respiratory protection
• PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)
• Forklift safety

Additional checklists (e.g., for fire safety and chemical accidents) are available. BLR offers comprehensive EHS tools to help organisations prioritise their people and improve overall performance.
