COR & Auditing / Audit Tools & Resources

Auditor Resources

 

 

 

All audit tools used in PIR are approved by Alberta Labour - Partnerships. The questions must meet Partnerships standards with respect to intent, question content, balance between all elements, and balance of the three (3) different verification techniques (documentation, interview, and observation).

The AMHSA Municipal Health and Safety Audit Tool has been approved by Partnerships and any changes made to it must also be approved.  

AMHSA, as the Certifying Partner for the municipal sector, requires that any municipality participating in PIR must conduct its audits using the AMHSA Municipal Health and Safety Audit workbook or eCompliance tool. Auditors must be certified by AMHSA.

Note: 

• Make sure you download the audit tool from the website for each new audit you perform. 
• We recommend backing up your work regularly.
• AMHSA’s Audit Workbook and eCompliance tools are both designed for use with Windows based PCs. Features may not be compatible with other platforms.
