Compliance Audits

Independent Audits to Identify Risk, Improve Performance, and Demonstrate Compliance

Why compliance audits matter

Environmental and health & safety compliance is a legal requirement, and a vital part of responsible business operations. But with evolving legislation, complex site activities, and multiple jurisdictions, it can be difficult to know where you stand. 
 
Arthian’s EHS compliance audits provide a clear, independent assessment of your legal compliance status. Our audits help you identify non-conformances, reduce risk, and improve performance—while supporting ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certification. 

What Is an EHS Compliance Audit?

An EHS compliance audit is a structured review of your organisation’s adherence to applicable environmental and health & safety legislation. It involves:


     

  • Reviewing documentation, permits, and procedures
  • Assessing operational controls and site activities
  • Identifying legal non-compliances and improvement opportunities

Audits are essential for:


     

  • Demonstrating due diligence and legal compliance
  • Preparing for ISO certification or surveillance audits
  • Identifying risks before they become incidents
  • Supporting continuous improvement in EHS performance

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How often should we carry out a compliance audit?

      We recommend annual audits as a minimum, with more frequent checks for high-risk sites or following significant changes. 

      Can you audit both environmental and health & safety compliance?

      Yes. Our audits cover both areas, and we can tailor the scope to your needs. 

      Do you provide support after the audit?

      Absolutely. We can help you close out findings, update your legal register, and provide interim support if needed. 

      Can you audit sites in different countries?

      Yes. We cover England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland, and tailor audits to local legislation. 

      Will the audit help with ISO 14001 or ISO 45001 certification?

      Yes. Our audits are aligned with ISO requirements and provide the evidence you need for certification or surveillance audits.
