Service for patrolling and assessing work standards: inspect, monitor, prevent, and help reduce potential losses from negligence.
A Patrol Audit is an inspection of workplaces, conducted by officers specifically for assessing. It is often used within industries and organizations, including production, safety, law enforcement, and quality control. The purpose is to identify problems, assess risks, and address issues promptly at the worksite, such as safety violations or non-compliance with guidelines. The frequency and scope of these inspections vary depending on the specific needs and objectives of the organization.
The goal of the inspection is to maintain work quality standards and ensure safety. It also aims to improve operational efficiency by monitoring and assessing critical work areas like production areas. For organizations already certified to various standards, it also verifies compliance with the requirements of the standards, such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Auditors assess whether ingredients are safe, labeling is correct, and production processes comply with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).
