Risk assessment
For people doing high-risk work, a risk assessment is a legal requirement.
The risk assessment identifies potential hazards in the workplace. It is an analysis and evaluation of the likelihood that these hazards will occur, and who might potentially be harmed. A risk assessment also provides the measures to reduce or mitigate those hazards.
In Planon's Health and Safety TSI, you can configure the risk assessments that are relevant for your organization. Risk assessments are either documents (stored as communication logs) and/or questionnaires. They can be specific to a work-related activity (e.g. welding / working at heights) or be specific to a hazard type (e.g. asbestos / chemicals / high voltage).
In AppSuite, relevant risk assessments will be shown to the field engineer before or during work, based on the job's context (property, space, asset, activity type). Field engineers should read the risk assessment documents and/or fill in the questionnaires.
