Ep 6: Audit Masquerade - How audits provide comfort rather than treatment for serious safety problems
Season 1
Episode 6
Published 1 year, 3 months ago
Description
Are audits effective checks and verifications of our risk control systems?
Are they diving deep into the functionality and effectiveness of systems and practices, and evaluating actual daily, hazardous work?
Or, are they mostly rustling paperwork at the expense of real operational hazards?
