Safety Consulting
Maintaining a safe workplace is good for every worker on your jobsite, in your facility, and out in the field. But it’s also good for project schedules, profit margins, and your company’s reputation. Paragon Safety helps your organization reach your safety, quality, and productivity goals. Focused on efficiency, clarity, and effectiveness, our team of expert consultants provide you with a full arsenal of tools to ensure a safe workplace. So, if you’re looking to uphold a solid safety record, reduce your Workers’ Compensation costs, and prevent large fines due to OSHA violations, Paragon’s Safety Coaches are here for you.
Safety Audits
Is your whole team working together for a safe and productive workplace? A third-party safety audit is the most effective means to ensure that you’re protecting your most valuable assets: your people, property, and financial resources.
Paragon Safety provides comprehensive jobsite safety audits to provide you with objective and accurate feedback on the viability of your company’s safety programs. Expert Field Safety Coaches will research, review, and analyze your company’s safety protocols and provide you with appropriate measures you can take to help prevent accidents and injury. Our thorough audits can make a substantial difference in incident prevention. And should a serious accident occur, an audit followed by timely corrective action can be viewed favorably by OSHA and other regulatory agencies.
More than an inspection
- Performs comprehensive, methodical examination and review of programs, documentation, policies and procedures, practices, and systems.
- Identifies OSHA violations, potential liability issues, and risk exposures.
- Recommends short- and long-term strategies for hazard mitigation.
5 Benefits of a Paragon Safety Audit
In-depth analysis
A safety audit is not an inspection; it is an in-depth analysis of safety programs and behaviors on the jobsite, checking safety knowledge and understanding of your workers, and looking for evidence that your company’s safety policies and procedures are being followed. With Paragon, you get a complete report (with analytics, photos, and recommendations) following each audit—not just a “check-in-the box” checklist. To ensure compliance is maintained, we also offer electronic tracking of corrective actions.
Objectivity
Our Field Safety Consultants provide a completely neutral assessment and review of your company’s safety systems and processes without the natural familiarity that occurs with company co-workers and day-to-day routines. Putting one of your employees in charge of auditing other employees in your company is, at best, a potential conflict of interest. At worst, it could be like the fox guarding the henhouse.
Knowledge & validation
Paragon has unmatched experience conducting safety audits in all types of business environments and across industry verticals. We can share best practices and industry-wide knowledge that can strengthen your company’s safety programs.
Accuracy of results
Due to the built-in objectivity, the results of a third-party Paragon safety audit provide a more accurate review of safety practices within different sections of your company’s operations.
Low business impact
Paragon’s Field Safety Consultants can visit your jobsite or facility with the sole purpose of conducting an audit. We’ll get the job done in a timely, efficient manner—without interrupting production.
Mock OSHA Inspections
Although OSHA standards require your company to perform periodic inspections of your jobsites or facilities to ensure a safe work environment for your employees, it’s not just about OSHA compliance—it’s about accident prevention and training your staff on what to expect and how to act if OSHA shows up on your jobsite or in your facility. Our safety consultants are highly experienced in the OSHA inspection process and can expertly train your team on how best to handle OSHA and minimize risk.
At Paragon Safety, our comprehensive Mock OSHA Inspections include the following:
- Conduct a thorough inspection using OSHA’s methods and sequencing, including an opening conference, inspection walkaround, and closing conference.
- Capture real-time observations of positive conditions, risky behaviors, and at-risk conditions.
- Assess how well your team adheres to your corporate OSHA inspection policy.
- Train team members on what to expect during an OSHA visit.
- Provide detailed report to support immediate corrective action, including photos, observations, and mitigation guidance.
Safety documentation, policies & procedures
Whether you need an entire turnkey safety manual, employee handbook, or an update of existing documentation, Paragon Safety can provide written directives that are crafted specifically for your industry and type of work. Our compliance specialists can create a customized safety manual or site-specific safety plan for you that is compliant with applicable OSHA and other regulations, clear and user-friendly, easy to update, and highly professional.
Whatever the size of your company, jobsite, or facility, Paragon Safety can conduct a needs assessment to develop—and implement—a custom safety program optimized for you. Our programs will keep your workers safer, keep you in compliance, and boost your bottom line.
