Course Overview
The cost of an incident involving safety system internal audit lands on production, insurance, licence and reputation at once. Safety performance on internal audit degrades quietly during periods when nothing goes wrong. The programme takes participants through this part of occupational health and safety end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. The programme works equally well for those formalising safety system internal audit for the first time and those improving an existing approach. The difficulty is not agreeing that the practice within occupational health and safety matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. Participants test their assumptions about internal audit against scenarios designed to break weak ones. The professional literature on safety system internal audit converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on internal audit and revise it on evidence. The programme closes with an action plan for the occupational health and safety capability that each participant writes for their own organisation.
