Integral Benchmarking
Why Integral Benchmark?
Integral benchmarking compares your organisations culture and safety processes to learn how to:
- Reduce accidents and ill-health;
- Improve culture and compliance; and/or
- Cut compliance costs.
Benchmarking is not just about comparing data or copying your competitors. Benchmarking is more about continuously learning from others, learning more about your organisation’s strengths and weaknesses in the process, and then acting on the lessons learned. This is what leads to real improvement. Benchmarking is a means to an end, not an end in itself.
Some organisations aim for business excellence and want to be seen as ‘best’ or at least better than average. Benchmarking all aspects of your business, including health and safety, can help you achieve this and it is also us in helping you meet your health and safety duties in a more effective and efficient way.
Why Integral Benchmark?
Integral Benchmarking health and safety gives you similar advantages; it helps you:
- Improve your reputation - this is increasingly important in getting and keeping contracts;
- Avoid ‘reinventing the wheel’ - learn from others’ experience and pick up on others’ good ideas by comparing and contrasting how things are done.
- Develop relationships with your customers and suppliers, including contractors;
- Find out where you stand - you may think you’re better than average, or even the best, but are you really?
- Save money and help keep your competitive edge. Savings can come, for example, from reduced insurance premiums, increased productivity and reduced staff turnover;
- Improve overall management of health and safety and reduce risks to people’s health and safety.
