There is now software for the risk assessment of every workplace. This can replace a variety of lists and make work easier. Of particular interest are solutions that offer all employees access to up-to-date data at all times and allow existing documents to be imported.
The web-based HSEQ software from QUMsult, for example, meets these requirements: data from existing Excel lists, e.g. BG RCI forms for risk assessment as well as Access and PDF files can be imported. The risk assessment is the employer's duty: hazards must be determined and assessed for every workplace or activity, the use of work equipment, the handling of hazardous substances and if particularly vulnerable persons are employed, and the necessary protective measures must be defined. An update must be carried out in the event of changes. Suitable software enables a systematic approach. In addition, proof can be provided to certifiers and supervisory authorities at any time and companies can work in a legally compliant manner.
