Assess the current state of occupational safety and health at your company

Are you wondering what the status of occupational safety and health—and, consequently, workplace safety—is like at your company?
Complete this free self-assessment to help you understand the current state of occupational safety and health at your company and identify potential areas for improvement.

This assessment will help you identify which key areas of occupational safety and health have already been addressed at your workplace and where it may be necessary to evaluate your practices more closely.

 

Choose the self-assessment that's right for your company

There are two versions of the occupational safety and health self-assessment so that the questions better reflect different work environments.

The self-assessment for office and professional work is intended for organizations where the work consists primarily of office or professional duties.

The self-assessment for the manufacturing industry includes a broader set of questions that also takes into account aspects of occupational safety related to the production environment, such as machinery, tools, and the use of chemicals.

The surveys therefore differ somewhat in terms of content and scope. Please select the version that best suits your company’s operating environment.

Who can benefit from self-assessment?

Self-assessment is particularly useful for organizations engaged in office and professional work that want to gain a comprehensive overview of the current state of occupational safety and health and identify potential areas for improvement.

The survey will be most beneficial to someone who has a sufficient overall understanding of the company’s occupational safety and health practices, responsibilities, and documentation. Respondents may include, for example, an occupational safety and health manager, an HSEQ/EHS manager, an HR representative, a CEO, or another representative of management or supervisory staff.

If necessary, you may also complete the survey together with other individuals involved in occupational safety and health.

If your company operates in the manufacturing industry or if production machinery and chemicals are used in your work, you should choose the self-assessment for the manufacturing industry.

What is examined in a self-assessment?

The survey covers key areas of occupational safety and health from the perspective of office and specialist work:

• cooperation on occupational safety and health
• Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment
• Reporting of near misses, hazardous situations, and accidents
• occupational health services and workplace assessment
• Occupational Safety and Health Indicators and Management
• orientation
• education
• machinery and equipment
• work clothes and protective gear
• policies for a shared workplace

What kind of grade will I get on the test?

You will receive a brief, general assessment of the occupational safety and health situation at your workplace via email.

The assessment can help identify areas that are already performing well, as well as topics that may be worth examining more closely as part of efforts to improve workplace safety.

Please note that this assessment does not replace a formal assessment of the current state of occupational safety and health conducted by an expert.

The survey includes a fair number of questions and examines occupational safety and health from several different perspectives.

You'll get the most out of this by answering the questions based on the actual situation at your workplace.
