Frequently Asked
Questions.
Why do property owners need independent safety audits of contractors?
Property owners face significant liability when contractor violations occur on their property—OSHA can cite property owners under multi-employer doctrine. Serious incidents create workers' compensation claims, potential lawsuits, regulatory penalties, project delays, and reputation damage. Independent audits verify contractors maintain claimed safety programs, identify hazards before incidents occur, document owner due diligence demonstrating reasonable care, and ensure contractors comply with contractually required safety standards. Audit costs are minimal versus incident exposure—prudent risk management.
What safety violations are most common on painting projects?
Common issues include inadequate fall protection on scaffolds, ladders, or elevated platforms, lack of proper PPE including respirators for spray painting, improper ladder use and unstable setups, inadequate hazard communication regarding coating materials, confined space entry without proper protocols, electrical hazards from equipment and temporary lighting, inadequate guardrails and barricades, and missing safety training documentation. We identify these common violations plus project-specific hazards during systematic audits enabling corrective action before regulatory inspection or incidents occur.
Can you audit contractor safety before project award?
Absolutely. Pre-qualification safety audits evaluate contractor safety programs, review OSHA 300 logs identifying incident history, verify insurance and workers' compensation coverage, assess safety training programs and documentation, review written safety plans and procedures, and interview safety personnel evaluating competence. Pre-bid safety qualification prevents unqualified contractors from project consideration—eliminating safety-deficient firms before contract award rather than discovering problems mid-project. Many sophisticated owners require pre-qualification preventing lowest-bidder safety disasters.
What happens when audits identify safety violations?
Audit reports document specific violations with regulatory citations, photographic evidence when appropriate, and corrective action recommendations. Severity ranking prioritizes imminent dangers requiring immediate correction versus less critical administrative issues. Property owners or GCs use reports requiring contractor corrective action, withholding payment until compliance achieved, or terminating contracts for serious repeated violations. Our role is objective documentation—enforcement decisions rest with property owners. Most contractors appreciate identification enabling correction before OSHA inspection or incidents.
Do you provide ongoing monitoring throughout project duration?
Yes, periodic audits throughout project duration verify sustained compliance versus one-time inspection compliance. Weekly or bi-weekly site audits identify emerging hazards, verify corrective actions from previous audits, assess changing conditions as work evolves, and document ongoing safety performance. Continuous oversight maintains contractor accountability and provides early warning of deteriorating safety culture. For large or high-risk projects, ongoing monitoring provides essential safety management supporting successful incident-free project completion.
