routine inspection
Standard safety check
A routine inspection is a scheduled examination conducted at regular intervals to verify standards, safety, or compliance.
Unlike inspections triggered by complaints or incidents, routine inspections follow a predetermined schedule: The health department conducts routine inspections of restaurants twice a year.
The phrase appears in regulatory, workplace, and maintenance contexts.
