You work in project management. Your tender documents need to be supplemented with occupational health and safety certification. You are looking for a cost-effective solution for your occupational safety audit. You are looking for alternatives to the very extensive and time-consuming ISO certification.
Here is the cost-effective, sensible solution favored by the health and safety authorities: the WORK PROTECTION SYSTEM, which takes 8-16 hours to set up.
Structure of the VBG's 'Systematic occupational safety'
Step 1
Carry out an inventory
The company prepares for the audit with this inventory (around 100 questions).
Step 2
Perform audit
The AMS must be assessed at least once a year. This assessment can be carried out in two ways using the VBG audit questionnaire:
- internally by yourself and/or
- externally by third parties, such as trained auditors or an external occupational safety specialist.
This procedure must be defined; the aim of the audit is in any case to check and evaluate the quality of the implementation of the process steps of the "AMS - Systematic Occupational Health and Safety" and to define corrective and improvement measures.
In small companies, the evaluation of the audit is already the evaluation of the AMS. In medium-sized companies, where the audit is carried out by managers, occupational safety specialists or external auditors, the assessment by the company management is an additional step (management review).
