OSHA Audits & Assessments
Find every gap before an inspector does. We run on-site mock inspections, gap assessments, and program audits — then hand you a prioritized plan to fix what we find.
What Is an OSHA Audit & Assessment?
An OSHA audit is a proactive review of your workplace and safety programs against the standards that apply to you — run by us, not by a government compliance officer. There are no citations and no penalties; the findings are yours, and the point is to fix what’s wrong before an inspection, an incident, or a complaint forces the issue.
Think of it as a fire drill for compliance. We look the way OSHA would look, tell you what an inspector would cite, and give you a plan to close it — on your timeline instead of theirs.
When Should You Order an OSHA Audit?
Most audits are triggered by one of these moments.
Before a Scheduled Inspection
If you’re on a National Emphasis Program list or expecting an OSHA visit, a mock inspection finds what they’ll find — while you can still fix it.
After an Injury or Complaint
A recordable injury or an employee complaint raises your inspection odds. An assessment shows you where you stand before anyone else looks.
When Your Insurer Asks
Carriers and brokers increasingly require a safety assessment. We deliver the audit and the documentation they’re looking for.
For Client Prequalification
Bidding work that runs through ISNetworld, Avetta, or Veriforce? We help you meet the safety requirements those platforms demand.
After Acquiring a Site
New location, new exposures. An audit gives you a clean baseline of what you just took on before problems become yours.
As an Annual Check
Built into a real safety management system, an annual audit keeps small gaps from quietly becoming findings.
Audits & Assessments We Perform
Why an Audit Pays for Itself
No Surprises in an Inspection
You find the gaps first, on your timeline, with a plan to fix them — instead of learning about them from a citation.
A Prioritized Fix List
We don’t just hand you a binder. You get a clear, ranked list of what to address first and how to do it.
Documentation That Counts
A documented audit and corrective-action effort is exactly what insurers, clients, and OSHA want to see — proof you’re managing safety.
Lower Risk, Lower Cost
Catching a hazard in an audit is a fraction of the cost of a fine, a lawsuit, or a workers’ comp claim down the line.
An audit usually leads to fixing what it finds:
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an OSHA audit and assessment?
An OSHA audit (or assessment) is a proactive review of your workplace and safety programs against OSHA’s standards — done by you or a third party, not an OSHA compliance officer. Its purpose is to find and fix hazards and documentation gaps before they result in an injury, a complaint, or a citation.
How is an audit different from an OSHA inspection?
An OSHA inspection is conducted by a government compliance officer and can result in citations and penalties. An audit is something you commission — there are no fines, the findings are yours, and the whole point is to get compliant before an actual inspection happens. A “mock inspection” is an audit run the way OSHA would run it.
What is a mock OSHA inspection?
A mock inspection walks your site exactly as an OSHA compliance officer would — reviewing conditions, programs, and records against the standards that apply to you — and reports what an inspector would likely cite. It’s the closest thing to a real inspection without the risk.
Do you cover State-Plan states like Cal/OSHA or Michigan?
Yes. Many states run their own OSHA-approved programs (Cal/OSHA, MIOSHA, Oregon OSHA, WA L&I, and others) with rules that can be stricter than federal OSHA. We assess against the standards that actually apply to your location.
What happens after the audit?
You get a clear report and a prioritized corrective-action plan — and we can help you close the gaps, from writing missing programs to delivering the training the audit surfaced. The audit is the start of getting compliant, not just a grade.
How much does an OSHA audit cost?
It depends on your industry, site size, and scope — a single program review is very different from a multi-site mock inspection. The cost of an audit is far below the cost of a serious citation or claim. Tell us your situation and we’ll scope it.
