ESATCO provides Environmental, Health and Safety Compliance Audits for Effective Business Risk Management and Compliance.

How do Environmental, Health and Safety Compliance Audits (EHSCA) help you reduce risks?

Environmental, Health and Safety compliance audits identify issues with regulatory compliance, health and safety issues, emissions to atmosphere, discharges etc., all of which must be controlled.

The scope of the EHSCA was defined in the provision of services and the objectives of the EHSCA were to:

  • Check the conformity of activities and facilities under the laws (federal, provincial and municipal) applicable, health and safety issues, environmental compliance approvals (ECA/CofA) and permits issued to your firm by different government bodies.
  • Make recommendations for best management practices where applicable.
