Managing Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) assessments is a vital part of ensuring workplace safety and legal compliance. Yet, traditional methods often make the process cumbersome and prone to error. Enter VISION - a game changing health and safety software designed to streamline COSHH compliance and help businesses take control of hazardous substances with ease.
Why are COSHH assessments essential?
COSHH regulations are in place to protect workers from harmful substances in the workplace. Whether you are handling chemicals, interacting with biological agents, or completing a process resulting in dust and fumes, proper assessments are required. These ensure that risks are identified, evaluated and controlled effectively. Failing to comply can result in serious health risks, legal consequences, and financial penalties. You can learn more about what is required as part of your COSHH assessments in our ‘Ensuring Workplace Safety - Understanding COSHH assessments’ blog.
The Challenges of Traditional COSHH Management
Many businesses still rely on paper-based records, or outdated spreadsheets for their COSHH assessments. This approach is not only time-consuming but also increases the risk of human error and lost documentation. Without a streamlined process, staying compliant can feel overwhelming.
How VISION simplifies COSHH Compliance
VISION transforms the way businesses handle COSHH assessments. Our COSHH assessment module centralises all your data, making it easy to create, manage and access assessments in one place. There is a legal requirement to complete an assessment for each COSHH item, and depending on your workplace, this could require hundreds of assessments to be reviewed, completed and renewed. With its intuitive interface you can quickly choose and complete pre-prepared assessments, with options to customise, allowing you to become compliant in minutes!
