Similar techniques to those used in financial audits can be utilised in safety audits to reduce safety risks in any facility or business. A sound corporate enterprise must thoroughly audit both its accounting records and safety procedures.

The credits of adequate precautions should equal the debits of potential loss or harm scenarios. Audits examine every facet of the programme with a focus on the amount and quality of safety and health-related activities at every level. An audit’s primary objective is to confirm that health and safety procedures adhere to institutional policies and local, state, and federal laws.

Safety audits serve as performance evaluations for process safety management, environmental programmes, and safety and health programmes. An organised, methodical assessment and evaluation of how workplace activities affect safety and health is known as a safety audit. By working to minimise risky behaviours and hazards that cause injuries and accidents, it seeks to provide a safe and healthy workplace.

Since the Safety Audit is an interdisciplinary self-assessment tool, a community team of domestic violence experts and key workers who represent the systems being examined performs the work. Team members gather data, participate in group meetings to discuss audit findings, suggest improvements to training, policy, and procedure, plan how to put the changes into action, and assist with implementing, monitoring, and help implement, monitor, and evaluate the changes over time.

The results of a safety audit are as follows in this regard:

identifying weaknesses in the case processing systems under review’s accountability and safety measures, or responding to the “Audit question.”

Specific system improvement suggestions that help community partners fix the found gaps.
new knowledge of a procedure that can be applied to continuing planning, assessment, and problem-solving in communities.
new approaches to collaboration between community partners.
