We can assist as part of a corporate audit team and/or undertake independent audits based on agreed scope of work specific to each client.
By realistically evaluating risks and quantifying liabilities, we help clients negotiate the best business deals and reduce future environmental, health and safety liabilities.
We work closely with our clients to develop specific methodologies. This may include an opening meeting with key personnel, verification interviews, document verification, site inspections, close out meeting and the production of an audit report and corrective action plan. This process identifies strengths and weaknesses of existing systems and processes and assists in ensuring compliance with legislation and improvement where necessary.
