Safety Incident Management

PeopleSpheres Add-ons
This PeopleSpheres Object (PSO) allows managers to record, track, manage and report on workplace safety incidents and stay compliant with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements as well as other federal regulations.

What is a PeopleSpheres Object (PSO)?

The PeopleSpheres Object is a new data repository. Our customers use PeopleSpheres to manage their employees, but they can also create new objects (sites, stores, vehicles, work accidents, document repository, etc).

If we take the example of the stores PSO: each store has a unique file to which the HR can link the employees who work there, as well as all the data related to this particular store. This makes it possible to have an optimized store database.

Features

Custom Forms

Using the form builder, you can create customized forms that allow you and your team to track any type of safety incident and include custom fields to track the incident data that matters most to your organization.

This could include attaching photos of the incident, providing additional information to support a root cause analysis, etc.

Forms can be carefully constructed to reduce complexity and make it intuitive to use even for occasional users.

Reporting

Monitor safety KPIs such as Incidents Rate, Lost Working Days and more using the reporting tool. Create reports and dashboards to help you better understand and monitor causes of incidents and take corrective actions to prevent them in the future.

 

Workflows & Alerts

To help you remain compliant, you can also set up workflows to notify you when a workplace incident is OSHA reportable or recordable. Create workflows to allow multiple contributors to add necessary data and documents and give approvals.

Email and in-app alerts can be set up to ensure key members across your organization are notified of new safety incidents, progress of an incident investigation and corrective actions to be implemented.
