  • Identify strengths in your program
  • Find opportunities for improvement

  • After all the first stage in proactive safety, improvement is the gap analysis tool. The next step is to put those findings into use by making improvements. You can keep track of all procedures that will guide your business to becoming a growing company with a safety motto by utilizing the Lumiform health and safety gap analysis checklist.
