How to Avoid a Surprise OSHA Inspection
Your business could be the target of a surprise OSHA inspection! All it takes is for one employee to complain about you, and irrespective of the complaint, it is important to avoid the situation.

The only solution is to regularly implement a good safety plan in your work proceedings, in every aspect of the workflow. Always aim to ensure that your organization is as safe as possible.

Here are a few ways to avoid a surprise inspection:

Make sure all your employees understand the concept of occupational safety. Encourage your staff to bring any safety concerns to your attention.


Never neglect any complaint.


Make sure that all documentation is kept in place and is regularly updated.


Walk around and check whether all processes are being handled in a safe manner.
These are just a few ways you can avoid a surprise visit. However, there is far more to OSHA than meets the eye.
