How To Choose The Best Health & Safety Auditors

So, you know the importance of health and safety audits, and now you’re looking for the best and most trusted health and safety auditors in your location. Although it can be overwhelming to choose trusted health and safety auditors, we have put together this blog post to make it a whole lot easier for you so that you can get things right the first time around without making any obvious errors or mistakes.

When it comes to who checks your car to make sure it’s running properly or who monitors or who designs your place of work, for example, it’s always a professional to hand. And with choosing the best health and safety auditors, it’s no different.

In this latest blog post, we’ll be outlining the top FIVE things to look out for when choosing a health and safety auditor.

Experience

It goes without saying, selecting a health and safety auditor with an abundance of experience is one of the very first things to look out for. The more experience the better. For example, Business Safety Solutions have well over 25 years of experience providing health and safety audits for a number of industries including warehouses, factories, offices, recycling centres, and more.

Experience within your chosen audit is one of the very first things to look out for, so remember to check the website of the auditor or at the least, ask them personally for how long they’ve been performing health and safety audits.

Reviews

Once the experience box is ticked off, it’s time to check out the reviews of the auditor(s). Social proof is massively important and plays a crucial role in your decision-making. One of the simplest ways to check a company’s reviews is by looking at its Google Business Profile. For example, if you go to Google and type in ”Business Safety Solutions” you will see that we have TEN five-star reviews with past and existing clients highlighting our professionalism, attention to detail, and personable service delivered.

A Direct Approach

Another thing to look out for when choosing a local health and safety auditor is a direct approach. A comprehensive H&S audit should be thorough and direct without compromising on quality. A direct approach carried out by myself – Gary Durnall – is centred around taking the safety concerns and ownership away from the business leads so they can focus on their business. Committed to sustainable, innovative, high-quality safety solutions to give peace of mind to all stakeholders.

Offer A Wide Range Of Skills

Choosing a health and safety auditor is important to undertake the health and safety audit. But remember, there are many different facets within a health and safety audit to consider. Therefore, it’s essential to select an auditor that has a comprehensive range of skills which may include; bespoke health and safety training, gap analysis training, risk assessment training, site management safety training, and much more. Yes, you guessed right, Business Safety Solutions provide all of these services and more.

Case Studies

Another way to select from a whole host of health and safety auditors is to check on case studies or lengthy reviews left by happy clients. Health and safety are much more than just a tick-box exercise and can make a massive difference in the safety, efficiency, and productivity of business operations. Therefore, checking our recent case studies left by happy clients is a good way to see how the health and safety audits you’re considering are making a massive difference in what they are providing.

Gary came to my Osteopathic CPD group on 10th October 2020 on a zoom seminar. This was to give us reassurance of the health and safety procedures we have put in place for Covid 19. Gary readily and kindly agreed, giving an excellent well prepared presentation and easily with expert knowledge answered all our questions. I also found it very reassuring and helpful as he showed the dentistry and physiotherapy risk assessments he had implemented . The presentation helped to give confidence and reassurance to myself and osteopathic colleagues, that we have implemented the correct procedures of health and safety with full PPE and professional duty of care. Also Gary has been to my practice and brought all my professional policies of duty up to date. Fire Safety, Risk assessment, pathways for my practitioner team due to Covid. What a relief to have all this help and support, so all is professionally and expertly documented to give me peace of mind so I can concentrate on my work. Thank you so much and I will certainly recommend you most Highly.

“I became aware of Gary when he was being assessed for two Wamitab qualifications of Level 4 (High Risk Operator Competence for Managing Transfer of Hazardous Waste) and (High Risk Operator Competence for Managing Physical and Chemical Treatment of Hazardous Waste). His Assessor drew my attention to him and suggested that he would make a good assessor. I took an interest in his portfolio and found it to be well above average. I would be pleased to have Gary as an assessor through adversity he maintained a dignified attitude. His personal qualities included having a calm demeanour, good communicative skills and traditional values.”

"As a small business, it can be hard to find a trusted partner for H&S. The safety of our team is paramount, though spiralling costs were a concern. Gary perfectly understood the reality of being an SME and tailored and delivered a H&S package and Covid-19 audit, that fitted perfectly in our organisation (and our budget), with a sensible and effective approach."
The Goodlife Outdoor CompanyManaging Director
Our business has faced many new challenges due to the Covid-19 situation. With ever changing guidelines and with such important things at stake, we needed help and assurances that we were doing everything we needed to do as an employer to protect staff and protect the business. BSS performed a workplace audit for us and also provided so much useful information and resources to assist the business with our new fluid workforce requirement. After spending time with us in the office, BSS sent us a comprehensive action plan that we used to make our place of work safe. Gary’s clearly an experienced professional as his delivery method made it easy for us to understand a situation that’s previously done nothing but confuse us. We now have confidence that we have done what is required and we have shown that we are a responsible employer which is so important for us. The process was very efficient and all the paperwork arrived within days, as promised by BSS. We highly recommend BSS to all small businesses who want peace of mind about the safety of their offices and home working for staff.
