The formal platform for this assessment is “Safety Audit”, the findings of which aid in recognizing the existing status as well as the gap, so that remedial measures can be taken in order to protect and nurture the enormous human resource that is at stake. To bring about a uniformity in the quality of the audit, The Bureau of Indian Standards has developed a standard IS-14489:1998 “Code of Practice on Occupational Health & Safety Audit”. This standard was reviewed due to global standard changes and reaffirmed in 2002. Today, this standard is used across the nation as a reference for conducting safety audit of industrial establishments.
