An audit is a formal review of your health and safety management and includes the following documents:

- Training records
- Accident data
- Records
- Premises and plant or equipment records
The audit will compare what is stated in the policy or procedure is actually happening in practice. The auditor will look for evidence of compliance and highlight where there are gaps in the system. The audit report will include a list of recommendations and an action plan.
Inspections are a systematic and through check of the physical condition of the workplace, including any relevant records. The inspection will consider issues such as welfare, access and egress, dust, work at height, people’s behaviour and systems of work, PPE compliance, lighting, slips and trips hazards, compliance with relevant safety procedures. An inspection by an external individual can highlight issues that persons familiar with the workplace have got used to.
