Site Inspection Report
The site inspection focuses on the implementation of risk controls used by contractors following the work health and
safety (WHS) management plan assessment. The intent of the site inspection is to benchmark the safety practices
observed on site against the criteria contained in the checklist. The Office of Industrial Relations understands that
construction sites are continuously changing and vary greatly in size and complexity. For this reason, it may not be
possible for the accredited auditor (construction) to examine all plant and work practices for a particular project. It is
acceptable to review a sample of items and, based on the evidence that is available at the time, assess whether the
undertaking conforms to the set criteria.
