Health and Safety Audits and Site Inspections in Coventry

SafeWise are a health and safety company covering Coventry and the rest of the West Midlands, advising employers since 2012. Businesses ring us for one thing: somebody independent to come out, look at how the work is genuinely being carried out, and put the findings in writing. That is what our safety audits and inspections are for.

The Difference Between an Inspection and an Audit

An inspection is the practical one. An advisor walks your workplace, premises or construction site and looks at conditions on the day, the way people are working, and anything that presents an immediate risk. An audit goes deeper and examines your management arrangements as well as your paperwork, so it takes in your policy and who is responsible for what, your safe working procedures, training and supervision, how accidents and near misses are dealt with, how you consult your employees and how you control contractors on site. If you are unsure which one you need, tell us what prompted the review and how much assurance you are after.

What Happens on the Day of the Visit

The advisor comes to you. They raise anything serious while they are still standing in front of it, so you are not left waiting on a document before you can start putting it right. They photograph whatever a picture explains better than a paragraph, and they write down what you are already doing well alongside the problems.

What You Get in Writing

The report is the part you keep. It covers:

  • where your arrangements are already working as they should
  • unsafe conditions and working practices seen during the visit
  • photographs where they help explain a finding
  • recommendations ranked by priority, so you can tell this week's job from next quarter's
  • an improvement plan covering the items that need longer to sort out

Who Ends Up Asking to See It

Few Coventry businesses commission a safety review because they fancy one. Somebody has usually asked. A main contractor wants evidence before letting your people through the gate. An insurer wants to see what you had in place before a claim landed. A scheme assessor working through your application will want to see documents. And after a serious incident an inspector will ask what you knew and when. RIDDOR 2013 requires certain injuries, diseases and dangerous occurrences to be reported and a record of them kept for at least three years. A dated report with photographs and a prioritised action list answers all four audiences with one document.

Turning the Findings Into Work That Gets Done

A report only earns its cost if the actions in it happen. Ours is prioritised for that reason, so it reads as a work list rather than a verdict. If you would rather not carry that list on your own, our health and safety membership puts a named advisor behind it, with unlimited advice by phone and email, a bespoke policy that gets reviewed instead of written once and forgotten, and updates when the law moves.

If your paperwork is the gap rather than your practice, the RAMS templates are written by sector, with sets for construction, industrial, office and hospitality work. And when the people side needs covering too, there are our HR consultants in Coventry.

More About Us arrow

Independent Eyes:
An advisor who does not work for you sees the things a daily walk round stops registering.

Written, Not Verbal:
You finish with a dated report and photographs, not a conversation you have to remember.

Ranked by Priority:
Findings come with an order of work, so you know what has to be fixed now and what can be planned.

Audit or Inspection:
Tell us what triggered the review and we will tell you which of the two fits.
