OSHA Standards

OSHA standards have been in place since 1970 for the health and safety of employees in large and small organizations. The compliance requirements have varied according to different industries, with just the healthcare industry requiring standards for such departments as Laboratory, Housekeeping, Surgical, ICU, Administration, Central Supply, Dietary, etc. The OSHA standards cover construction to teens working in restaurants to handling of asbestos.

At Policy Tech, we realize that OSHA standards represent a significant compliance requirement for almost all but the single business owner with no employees. The Policy and Procedure Manager is suited to the automated management of OSHA, and though there will always be a need for an administrator, the labor hours can be reduced by as much as four times. The software enables departments and organizations to administer the requirements of OSHA standards electronically to all affected employees, with audit trails, signatures of completion, and periodic tracking by departments to enable the necessary accreditation. The past exercises of training and personally signing off individuals is drastically reduced, and the facilitation in editing new requirements also becomes significantly easier.

Regardless of the regulatory compliance requirements for a large manufacturing company, or the internally generated procedures for a service tech firm, the Policy and Procedure Manager can help improve the quality and speed of managing standards.
