The worst time to find out your workplace is harboring one or more safety violations? In the middle of a surprise OSHA inspection. The best time? During an internal safety audit you've planned specifically for the purpose of finding and fixing unsafe equipment and practices

Many employers fail to conduct their own safety inspections, and this is a mistake. Not only are you risking worker injuries and OSHA penalties, your workers' comp costs could be higher than necessary. This is definitely a situation where what you don't know can hurt you--and your employees.

Join us on May 25 for an informative audio conference all about internal safety audits. Our expert will discuss:

  • Why internal safety audits are so important
  • The elements of an effective audit
  • What to do with your audit findings
  • Why employee participation is critical to an effective audit
  • How audits can protect you from lawsuitsies
  • How internal audits can prepare you for a "real" OSHA inspection
  • Steps you can take now to lower injuries, costs, and safety risks at your workplace
