Permission Setup

This page shows a typical example setup of a business unit in safer.plus.


Overview

Each Organization may have varying Permissions setups, according to their needs, operations and Organization Structure.

As no two Organizations are the same, no two setups are the same, but some setups are similar and can be used as reference.

HSEQ Manager working alone

This is the simplest setup.

The HSEQ Manager or HSEQ Business Unit (BU) are the only users in the Organization and has full access to all records.

        RA[Risk Assessments]
        HR[Human Resources]

        EQP[Assets & Inspections]
    end

    HSD -- Read/Write --> RA
    HSD -- Read/Write --> HR
    HSD -- Read/Write --> DOC
    HSD -- Read/Write --> EQP
The HSEQ BU is expected to manage all records from all of the organization.

HSEQ Coordinating with HR and other BUs

This setup is for an organization that has a dedicated HR department and a dedicated HSEQ department. The HR department can maintain the employee records and sensitive personal data while other departments can view only what is relevant to them.

Complex Setup

While this setup might be more complex, it ensures correct ownership of records and aligns best with GDPR requirements when it comes to personal data.

Additionaly, this setup allows the HSEQ BU to coordinate with other departments and delegate responsibilities correctly.

Advanced Options

More advanced options can be configured to further refine the setup:

  • Submitted records are only visible to the user that submitted them
  • Form submission controls
  • Custom field access rules
  • Cross-department sharing
