Consult specialistsConsult specialists - if there is a safety officer or specialist advisers... Break down tasksBreak down tasks - for larger workplaces, it may not be practical to conduct a formal inspection of the entire workplace in a single session... Where do you start?

Health & Safety Inspections For us that is translated into…
