Service providers can assess the current state of their safety management independently with this safety self-assessment. The assessment can help the service provider identify its strengths and development needs. It can be used as a tool for the continuous improvement of safety. Tukes does not store or monitor the user information or results of the assessments. The assessment consists of 12 statements about safety management. Assess how accurately each statement describes your company’s practices. The assessment is primarily intended for those who has the duty to draw up a safety document.

You have grasped the basics, an all right result!
You are aware of the obligations of service providers. There may be some room for improvement in the sufficiency of your safety measures, though.
Sit down with your partners in providing the service and take a moment to consider how you could further improve customer safety. Start by choosing a few areas to improve. You should continuously monitor the effectiveness and sufficiency of your risk-management methods.

Unfortunately your results were not very good!
