Audits and Inspections

Work Health and Safety Audits

ECU’s WHS assurance processes monitor the University’s WHS Management system to evaluate it’s implementation and effectiveness and includes a program of both independent and internal Workplace Safety Audits and Focus Area Deep Dive reviews

The WHS Audits Inspection and Monitoring Procedure outlines the responsibilities and processes associated with this WHS assurance program.

A three-year rolling WHS Audit Schedule has been developed and can be viewed under "Downloads".

Workplace Inspections

Workplace inspections are used to identify hazards and report them before they cause an incident.

Inspections are undertaken regularly throughout our campuses and ECU owned facilities and are generally undertaken by the manager of an area, in consultation with the elected safety and health representative. Reports are made to the local health and safety committee. The Workplace inspection guideline (under "See Also) provides further details on this process including recommended inspection frequencies.

Workplace inspections can be completed using the Audit and Inspection Module of Riskware (this also includes an app for mobile devices). For more information see Riskware page.

Hardcopy workplace inspection templates are available to assist with workplace inspections under "Downloads".
