Top Methods for Managing an EHS System ● Field Level Hazard Assessments ● Training Credentials ● Incident reports ● Time lost injury reports ● Protective measure reports
1) Field Level Hazard Assessments
Field Level Hazard Assessments can predict problems or incidents before they occur.
These evaluations can accumulate and are useless if they collect dust in filing cabinets. Companies organize and store data using dedicated employees or FLHA software so that it is available when needed.
2) Training Record Management System
Large corporations rely on software to keep track of all their data. A training record management system stores employee credentials and notifies employees when they need to be renewed.
3) Incident Reporting Systems/Applications
Cloud-based Incident Reporting software centralizes all of your data and makes it available when needed. This also allows for the rapid creation of metadata that reveals trends. Large organizations use this software to keep all of their data under one roof and accessible at all times, whether the incident is internal or external.
4) Time Lost Injury Reporting
In Canada, the requirements for time lost injury reporting vary by province.
Companies use digital forms and other template systems to fill in the required data and quickly comply with regulations to adhere to the many differences.
5) Protective Measure Reports
When installing guiding, lockouts, and other safety systems, businesses will sometimes create protective measure reports. Software is commonly used to simplify and categorize this data. Companies can even use trend data to link their safety gains to the safety systems they've invested in.
