The Health and Safety at Work Act etc (HSWA) has been part of the UK legal system since 1974, supporting the development of a wide range of practices and policies that are designed to prevent accidents and injuries, and protect the physical and mental health of workers, customers, and the public.
The importance of health and safety in the UK modern day workplace simply cannot be underestimated and underpins every aspect of what we do.
Many sectors are striving to move away from antiquated health and safety management systems to a more dynamic way of working that modernises the vital role that health and safety plays in their day to day operations.
The dreaded clunky file storage that would be a renowned dumping ground for all historical records and an overly complicated spreadsheet which would control live incidents and periodic property inspections that undermined the genuine efforts of team members that care deeply about the welfare of others, simply had to go.
This is where the shineCompliance software comes to the forefront of digital solutions. The health and safety module is imbedded within the golden thread of shineCompliance, providing managers a holistic cloud-based view of all activity.
Live fast data recall from the golden thread supports evidence-based decisions through trend analysis, improves sharing and collaboration amongst stakeholders and resolves any potential conflict, duplication of effort or budget resource.
An intuitive mobile surveying app provides a capture-all platform for periodic inspections and investigations with simple write up and approval. The reactive element of software enables anyone to report issues, anonymously if required, including RIDDOR within the social housing provider’s territory and surrounding areas.
Health and safety managers and their external supply chain can then utilise the dedicated workflow within the software to raise projects to assist in action close out of identified issues.
Implementation is quick and simple, with support from the shineVision team. Whilst the product is being used far and wide and is therefore fit for purpose straight away, the team appreciate that every organisation’s requirements may be slightly different, and therefore it can be tailored for specific use. Lee Taylor, managing director of shineVision concludes with: “Success in health and safety compliance is all about having a roadmap, with everyone invested in the same journey. Our app means that you can keep the people at the front of wellbeing. Put simply, shineCompliance delivers Prevention, Compliance, Efficiency and Positive Cultural Change within duty holders and their accredited external supply chain.”
