The Compliance Management Module in Medgate’s Environmental Software Suite offers environmental/EHS professionals a centralized approach to the management of all compliance tracking activity. This module will help organizations satisfy environmental management system (EMS) requirements as well as compliance to various regulatory, corporate, and permit requirements.
Key Benefits of the Compliance Management Module
The Compliance Management module will help environmental/EHS professionals to:
- Create a library of legal and other requirements that pertain to your organization across regions/jurisdictions
- Manage and satisfy ISO 14001 / OSHAS 18001 / ANSI Z10 requirements
- Allow for separate management of safety and environmental compliance depending on your organizational structure (or view requirements in one combined list)
- Manage permit and environmental plan requirements and renewals, including the related record-keeping
- Seamlessly connect compliance requirements to various parts of your system (i.e.: job inventory, inspections) – ‘compliance mapping’
- Ensure you are organized and prepared for management system / compliance audits
