The 58-Attributes Worksheet
Notes
- In reality, there is a very small gap between the 0 (zero) rating and the 1 (one) rating and between the 2 (two) rating and the 3 (three) rating.
- There is a large gap between the 1 (one) rating and the 2 (two) rating. That gap is the difference between mostly no and mostly yes.
- Look for things that are done well and reinforce these things with personnel for their good efforts.
- Encourage small incremental improvements to better manage the "unexpected."
- In the SHARP certification process employers must participate in a complete audit. For a company to qualify for SHARP, it must achieve a rating of at least 2 (the item is largely in place, with only minor improvements needed) on all 58 attributes.
- All completed audits should have some justification and/or recommendations under the comment section for questions rated as 0 and 1. All completed assessments should be included and/or referenced in the report sent to the employer.
For more information on the SHARP process see OSHA's SHARP Manual.
