OHS Audit Process
1. How Will The Area To Be Audited Be Decided?
The Director Internal Audit Mr Peter McGrath, in conjunction with the Manager Occupational Health and Safety and Injury Management (OHSIM) Mr Stefan Delaney in 2010 developed a four year internal OHS audit plan. This will involve all high risk areas being audited every two years, medium risk areas every three years and low risk areas every four years.
In October/November each year the OHS Managers/Coordinators from each Division will be contacted to discuss the following year proposed audits. This will be a consultative process.
2. Who Will Perform the Audit?
In 2011 the internal OHS audit program will be conducted by the National Safety Council of Australia (NSCA).
Internal Audit coodinates the process.
3. Scope and Purpose of OHS Internal Audits
The scope of the audit will be limited to applicable elements within the protocol and their applicability to the Corporate EHS Management System.
