Frequently Asked Questions – Manufacturing Compliance Audits
Q: What is a manufacturing compliance audit?
A: A manufacturing compliance audit is a thorough review of your facility, equipment, written programs, and employee practices to ensure compliance with OSHA and industry-specific safety standards.
Q: Why do manufacturers need compliance audits?
A: Manufacturing accounts for nearly 15% of all workplace injuries each year. Compliance audits help identify safety gaps, reduce liability, and protect workers from hazards such as machine-related accidents, chemical exposure, and lockout/tagout failures.
Q: How often should a manufacturing facility have a compliance audit?
A: Most facilities benefit from an annual compliance audit. However, high-risk operations or those with recent OSHA citations should schedule audits more frequently.
Q: What areas are reviewed during the audit?
A: Key focus areas include hazard communication (HazCom), machine guarding, lockout/tagout procedures, personal protective equipment (PPE), emergency action plans, and overall workplace safety culture.
Q: How much does a compliance audit cost?
A: Pricing is based on company size: $750 for small facilities (1–25 employees), $1,500 for medium facilities (26–100 employees), and $3,000+ for large or multi-site operations.

A: You’ll receive a detailed written report outlining compliance gaps, prioritized recommendations, and practical solutions tailored to your facility. This ensures you know exactly how to correct issues and maintain compliance.
