Risks and Work Permits Management System
Maintenance activities in any facility can involve high-risk tasks — from cleaning the façade of a tall building or servicing a transformer, to working in hot environments, cleaning sewage treatment plants, or handling other hazardous operations. Yet, many organizations still rely on fragmented, manual processes for risk assessments and work permit management. Challenges such as slow permit issuance, lack of visibility into ongoing work, and inconsistent risk assessments hinder effective decision-making and increase the likelihood of safety incidents and regulatory non-compliance.

eFACiLiTY® Risks and Work Permits Management System automates the entire workflow for issuing work permits, tracking compliance, and managing risk assessments. It provides a robust framework for ensuring workplace safety and regulatory compliance in any facility where hazardous work is performed.
The module streamlines the process from risk identification to mitigation, storing all risk-related data such as risk types, mitigation plans, and risk matrices. It automates work permit approvals, generates risk mitigation tasks, and offers real-time tracking of permits and associated risks. Highly configurable to align with an organization’s safety policies, approval hierarchies, and operational workflows, this comprehensive system helps prevent workplace accidents, delays, and compliance breaches while ensuring all high-risk activities are managed safely and efficiently.
