The current state safety assessment projects offered by Patera provide a comprehensive view of the current state of safety and risk management in the organisation, under the leadership of Patera’s expert Kari Helislahti. The assessment serves as a solid basis for development work that strengthens the organisation’s ability to meet the requirements set by legislation, standards and the business environment. Often, the challenge is that the company cannot be sure of the state of safety matters.
The audit of the current state proceeds systematically in stages:
We understand the customer’s business environment and its special features.
The criteria used for the assessment are tailored to the customer’s needs. The criteria may include legislation, customer requirements, standards and good practices.
We review the customer’s previously produced material, such as risk assessments and safety plans.
We interview 8-12 key people in the organisation to obtain a comprehensive view of the current situation.
We carry out premises safety inspections to support practical observations.
We compile the results of the assessment and draw up clear, practical recommendations for further actions.
We provide the customer with a final report containing a summary, recommendations and a development plan. In connection with the handover of the report, we organise coaching for the organisation’s management and key personnel.
We offer diverse assessments and development plans for different areas:
Patera’s assessment and development processes provide concrete solutions for improving organisational safety and developing risk management. Each project is tailored to meet the specific needs and goals of the customer’s business.
