Permitted Work Management Module

Control high-risk work before it starts. The Permitted Work module in EHS Insight replaces paper and informal permit processes with a controlled digital workflow, so hazards are reviewed, approvals are documented and work is authorized before anyone begins.

From confined space entry and hot work to critical lifts and lockout/tagout, Work Permits give site management, supervisors, operators and frontline workers one shared record of the job, its hazards and its controls. The permit stays active for the duration of the operation and is closed only once the work is done.

With the ability to track and report on permits and their associated data, this module supports your operational and regulatory needs. Whether it's monitoring required activities or ensuring timely renewals, the Permitted Work Management Module enhances your workflow, helping you maintain compliance and focus on what matters most.

Permitted Work

Authorize Hazardous Work with Multi-Level Approvals

Route every Work Permit through up to three configurable approval levels, each with its own due-by window. A permit moves from Submit to Active only when every required approval is complete, then to Closed when the work is finished, with a clear record of who authorized what.

Analyze your Permitted Work

See what high-risk work your organization does most, and where. Built-in reports break down permitted operations by Business Entity, month and operation type, and track Work Permits by Business Entity, month, year and location, plus a full Work Permit Log for audits and reviews.

The Benefits of EHS Insight's Permitted Work Management Platform

EHS-Platform-Modules-EHS-Insight-4

Reduce Risk Through Enforced Approvals

No permit goes active until it’s been reviewed and approved at every configured level, so hazardous work never starts on a verbal OK.

Coordinate Employees and Contractors

Assign Work Permits to internal users or vendor workers. Employees see assigned permits in My Tasks without needing full module access, and contractors complete theirs through the Vendor Portal.

Attach the Right Safety Reviews

Link JSA templates, SOPs, Safety Alerts and Toolbox Talks to each permit through the Safety Reviews section, so workers have the controls in front of them before the job begins.

EHS Insight Saves Time, Saves Money, and Improves Safety Cultures

Track Active Permits to Completion

Know which permits are active right now. Once a permit is Active, users record work performed, update the permitted operation status and mark the permit complete.

Complete Permits from the Field

Mobile-friendly Work Permits let crews and supervisors review, update and close permits where the work happens.

Start Faster with Templates

Build Work Permit templates with pre-populated fields in the QR Codes and Templates Designer, so recurring jobs start consistently with less manual entry.

Keep Audit-Ready Records

Every closed permit is retained with its approvals, hazards, controls and discussion threads for historical reference, audits and reviews.
