Neftaly Audit Execution
Under: Neftaly Development – Strategic Partnerships Office (SCDR-2)
Monthly Health and Safety Audits
I. Purpose of Audit Execution
The execution phase is the heart of the audit process. This is where Neftaly’s auditing team assesses real-time compliance with health and safety standards by observing operations, evaluating safety measures, inspecting facilities, and interacting with staff. The aim is to:
- Identify hazards.
- Verify implementation of policies.
- Ensure emergency readiness.
- Encourage a culture of health and safety awareness.
II. Step-by-Step Audit Execution Process

| 3. Physical Walkthrough | Tour the facility to observe working conditions, equipment, signage, and sanitation. |
| 4. Equipment Inspection | Check safety equipment such as fire extinguishers, alarms, first aid kits, and PPE. |
| 5. Emergency Readiness Check | Verify emergency exits, drill records, and evacuation maps. Interview staff on protocols. |
