3. Review the Data
jprce the inspection data is colected, i needs tobe reviewed and analyzed to fd gaps and take action to mitigate the hazards and
improve workplace practices,
‘Any trends in the collected data would help identity the root causes ofissues and make changes atthe enterprise level o prevent the
pazards from occurring again, A cloud-based, automated inepection solution would make this work simple and etfcent, analyzing
trends and generating reports to make planning corrective actions e9sy,
‘4 Implement Corrective Actions
‘The whole process of nspeciing your workplace for safety issues would be pointless if you don't use the data to help prevert risk
'n your inspection report, include a section proposing the actions to be taken to correct the hazards found. For example, 2 certain
‘work practice involves safety risk, the proposed action may be a recommendation to reform the practice. Or, ifthe data shows a
‘concerning trend, a team may need to be insituled to investigate the matter futher.
‘Make sure your proposed actions are comprehensive, including the delegation of work fr all the proposed actions, deadines forthe
Actions to be completed, and a way to report the progress inthis work by providing the teams responsible for corrective actions with
‘the contact information of the stakeholders to report to
Follow Up on Your Findings
‘Schedule regular follow-ups to ensure that your findings from the safely inspection are being acted upon. When the proposed
deadlines for the actions pass, ask the relevant teams for progress repos anc follow up with stakeholders to check ifthe selution is
working.
Ia hazard persists despite taking action, i might be thatthe root cause of he issue was not eliminated, making futher analysis,
necessary. Remember that this is a continuous process and not something that can be forgotten once the inspection has been done.
