Opinion: Not Digitizing Certificate Management isn’t just Inefficient, It’s Inviting Trouble

It isn’t very easy to work in health and safety. However, that doesn’t mean MSHA will go any easier on you when the inevitable audit occurs. As we all know, the consequences of non-compliance can be serious. Among the worst of these consequences is a large financial penalty. While some degree of leeway has been expected in terms of lapsing contracts and permit slip-ups, the rise of digital tech has made that a thing of the past. With today’s technology, H&S personnel are being irresponsible by not taking advantage of software that will make the workplace safer, more efficient and compliant. In today’s article, we’ll look at exactly what H&S personnel are missing out on by refusing to digitize.

As if it wasn’t hard enough to manage all the certs for the workplace, contractors and vendors add another dimension of difficulty.

Expiration Notifications:

Certificate management software such as GroundHog LMS gives supervisors a simple interface to monitor all expirations and notifies them when training or permits will be expiring. This means that a lapse in certs is virtually impossible and the risk of fines during an audit decrease exponentially.

Simple Administration of Equipment Training:

The headache of administering training in a timely manner is second only to monitoring expirations. It doesn’t have to be this way though. With GroundHog LMS, H&S can create their own training, administer through the GroundHog LMS app and grant certificates. All digital. All Compliant.
