About Baus Girls

Guardian Safety Solutions brings 20+ years of safety expertise to businesses across North Georgia. Founded by former OSHA inspectors, we understand both sides of workplace safety - what regulators expect and what actually works in day-to-day operations. Our team serves companies from small family businesses to Fortune 500 operations. We've worked with everything from automotive manufacturing to food processing, developing safety solutions that make sense for each client's unique challenges. Our approach focuses on preventing incidents before they happen, not just meeting minimum requirements.

How They Can Help

We start every engagement with thorough hazard assessments, identifying risks specific to your operations and industry. Our OSHA compliance reviews cover all applicable standards, from general industry to construction requirements. We conduct detailed inspections of equipment, procedures, and documentation. Our training programs are interactive and industry-specific, covering topics like respiratory protection, electrical safety, and machine guarding. We develop complete safety management systems, including policies, procedures, and record-keeping systems. Fire safety services include code compliance reviews, evacuation planning, and fire prevention training. We also offer industrial hygiene testing for chemical exposures, noise levels, and indoor air quality. Monthly safety meetings and ongoing program maintenance keep your safety initiatives on track.

What to Expect

We begin with a detailed phone consultation to understand your safety challenges and goals. Our initial site visit includes a walk-through assessment and review of existing documentation. You'll receive a comprehensive report within one week, outlining findings and recommended actions. Implementation follows a phased approach, tackling the most critical issues first. We provide templates, training materials, and hands-on support throughout the process. Our consultants work directly with your safety committee and supervisors to ensure smooth adoption. Regular check-ins help address questions and fine-tune procedures as needed.

Service Area

We're based in Marietta and primarily serve Cobb, Cherokee, and Paulding counties. Our coverage extends throughout North Georgia, including Kennesaw, Acworth, Dallas, and Cartersville. We also work with clients in Bartow and Polk counties. Our location allows us to respond quickly to urgent safety issues and provide ongoing support without lengthy travel times.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if OSHA shows up for an inspection?
Stay calm and designate one person to accompany the inspector. Request to see credentials and ask about the inspection scope. Contact us immediately if you're a current client - we can provide phone guidance during the process.
How much will OSHA fines cost if we're not compliant?
Serious violations start around $15,000 each, with willful violations reaching $156,000 or more. Repeat violations carry enhanced penalties, making prevention much more cost-effective than paying fines.
Do we need written safety programs for everything?
OSHA requires written programs for specific hazards like lockout/tagout, confined spaces, and respiratory protection. We help determine which programs apply to your operations and develop them efficiently.
Can employees refuse unsafe work?
Yes, employees have the right to refuse work they reasonably believe poses immediate danger. Proper safety training and hazard communication help prevent these situations from arising.
How often should we update our safety training?
OSHA requires annual refresher training for most topics. However, we recommend additional training when new equipment is introduced, after incidents, or when procedures change significantly.
What's the most common safety violation you see?
Inadequate lockout/tagout procedures top the list, followed by fall protection deficiencies and missing safety training documentation. These are all preventable with proper planning.
Should we report near-miss incidents?
Absolutely. Near-miss reporting helps identify hazards before they cause injuries. We help set up systems that encourage reporting without blame or punishment.
How do you stay current with changing regulations?
We maintain active memberships in safety organizations, attend regular training updates, and monitor OSHA's regulatory agenda. Changes are communicated to our clients promptly with implementation guidance.
