A Guide to Essential Elements of an OHS Software When it comes to Occupational Health and Safety (OHS), your organisation cannot settle for just any solution to manage cases. You will want to ensure that the OHS software you use will minimise potential problems, such as disorganised documents and failure to comply with legislation. The right platform will provide all the necessary tools you need for job management and to keep your employees safe with sufficient risk assessment, safe work procedures, predefined compliance checklists, and full JSAs. That said, be sure to consider these essential features when selecting an OHS management softwaresystem: • Cloud-based – A good OHS management solution should be accessible from any web- enabled device. This allows you to keep the data up-to-date anytime, anywhere, even while on the field. • Easier data entry –Save new documents into the OHS software by dragging and dropping them into a specific case file. You could also do the same with emails and their attachments, or email scanned files directly into the platform, which will attach them to their respective records. • Integration with your accounting system – Do you have an existing accounting system? The OHS management software might be able to synchronise with it. This will automatically sync payments and invoices, billing, invoices, and timesheets to eliminate double data entry and the administrative costs associated with it. • Document organisation – Keep your documents in proper order and find them with ease by assigning unique labels relevant to your organisation. The software also lets you organise or group documents according to type. • Integration with WorkCover or Medicare –The OHS software can facilitate the claims process by delivering prepared reports and invoices relevant to each case. This way, financial reporting and administration can be streamlined and simplified. • Reminders –The OHS management software has a powerful Calendar that optimises the way you manage your resources, clients, and staff. • Free trial –Give the software a test run to see how it can improve the way you work. Some software developers offer a free 14-day trial to get you started before you commit to buy their product.
