As Procedures improve and hazards are better understood it is important to clearly communicate these changes in a structured way throughout an organization. Risky Business SOS makes this ongoing process easy at all levels. All users can compare different versions of Procedures, Chemical Substances and Hazards to quickly see what has changed between different versions. Administrators can also export lists of changes for evaluation.

Administrators are aware immediately how changes will affect the organizations workflow. Warnings are created to show how many users will need to re-read a Procedure when the Procedure is going to be updated. If a chemical is updated, the Administrator can see which Procedures will be affected.

Constant links between chemicals substances and hazards used in Procedures assures the Administrator that each Procedure will be correctly updated with the latest information. For example, if your substance is used in 10 different Procedures you only have to update the changes in the Chemical Library once for it to be updated in each Procedure. The SafetyOfficer will be shown a list of Procedures affected by the change so that they can be re-assessed if required.

More information on version control can be found in the section called “Version Viewer”.
