How are you winning buy-in for quarterly compliance audits without stalling throughput? I block two-hour windows per line to verify LOTO, egress routes, and machine guarding, and I’m getting pushback ahead of an ISO 45001 surveillance audit in March — curious what tactics keep hazard prevention and CAPA timelines on track.
Shift the two-hour per-line blocks to 25-minute micro-audits during changeovers and meal breaks and freeze them in the schedule at the tier-2 huddle — pushback drops while LOTO/egress/guarding still get covered. > ISO 45001 surveillance audit in March — curious what tactics keep hazard prevention I’d rotate bottleneck cells across the week and post next-day OEE deltas to prove net-zero impact; would scheduling back that?
I stopped the throughput fight by issuing the two-hour checks as PM work orders in the CMMS (“LOTO/guarding/egress audit – 120 min”) tied to the reliability cost center, so they showed up in the weekly PM KPI and supervisors treated them like must-do maintenance ahead of ISO 45001… Small caveat: we capped CAPA work to 48 hours and pushed bigger fixes to the Friday shutdown to avoid scope creep. Do you have a CMMS/ERP you can tag audits to?
