EHS - Environmental Health and Safety Management System

Features of CQ’s Environmental Health and Safety Management System (EHS)

Manual systems or Safety Management on legacy systems can add to the challenges faced by safety leaders. By automating with an environmental health and safety management system and software solution, safety leaders can ensure the well-being of employees with greater efficiency. ComplianceQuest environmental health and safety management software provides an enterprise-wide view of data and processes that can enable continuous improvement (CI). As a highly configurable and scalable EHS management system and safety software, it empowers organizations to manage incidents, ensure compliance, and protect employee well-being with real-time visibility. The solution can help:

• Standardize safety management across locations while also empowering employees to report near misses, incidents, and observations anonymously and track progress from anywhere.
• Establish root cause analysis and initiate Corrective and Preventive Action where needed.
• Ensure Training Management, Document Management, and create a centralized register for identifying patterns and trends for continuous improvement. With OSHA enabling electronic submission of Forms 300 and 300A, a safety management system makes even reporting incidents simpler and more organized.

ComplianceQuest EHS System is a part of its Enterprise-Wide Quality Management System, thereby integrating all the processes seamlessly. It enables automation of workflows and establishes a culture of safety and sustainability while meeting organizational goals. The key features of the ComplianceQuest EHS System include:

• Safety Event Reporting: EHS systems promote a safety culture to control risks and hazards at the workplace by ensuring workers have easy access to report injuries, accidents, or near misses that could affect safety on the worksite. These reports can be addressed to manage the risk and get an effective response, and if required, be reported to a regulatory control agency like OSHA directly.
• CAPA: Full action lifecycle to investigate and address unwanted events, hazards, and facilitate Change Management. The system can be used to assign to the right people, monitor the workflow, and provide full visibility as the process moves through verification of effectiveness.
• Worksite Inspections: Define schedules, checklists, and assess safety activity by location. Keep inspections seamless, consistent, and mobile-ready. CQ’s EHS management system assigns actions to findings within a single record for easy tracking and trends. An EHS safety software like ComplianceQuest centralizes safety data and drives faster, smarter decisions.
• Safety Observations: Provide workers a means to engage in the Safety Culture and to report positive or negative observations through advanced EHS systems. Safety managers can use the data for trending or assign investigations and actions depending on what is required. Excellent for lessons-learned postings to the workforce.
• Compliance Management: CQ’s Environmental Health and Safety Management Software includes a compliance management module managed by Enhesa, the world’s largest provider of environmental health and safety regulatory requirements. The solution offers the capability of undertaking a regulatory applicability analysis for a particular geography or operation.
• Stakeholder Management: With ComplianceQuest Health and Safety management solution, companies can manage all stakeholders, ensuring their participation and involvement in identifying key Health and Safety risks as well as the root cause for any incidents.
• Risk management: ComplianceQuest provides comprehensive EHS systems that include an indigenously developed risk management module, enabling businesses to:
• Maintain all hazards and risks in a consolidated document
• Categorize risks based on a thought-through risk rating methodology
• Classify risks based on the function/process/activity
• Follow the hierarchy of controls while determining control measures
• Assign risk owners and the frequency of review
• Alter the risk level based on the effectiveness of the control measure
