This release continues our investment in Permit Management, with AI-assisted extraction of permit requirements and new tools for tracking permits through revisions and renewals. We've also added GPS location capture to Audit & Inspection forms.
A Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is a written, step-by-step breakdown of a specific task that identifies the hazards at each step and the controls needed to do that step safely, before anyone picks up a tool. Some organizations call the same exercise a Job Hazard Analysis (JHA). OSHA uses both terms.
Most covered employers actually have two separate OSHA posting obligations, not one: the "Job Safety and Health: It's the Law" poster, which stays up year-round, and the OSHA 300A injury and illness summary, which only goes up from February 1 through April 30 each year and only applies if you're covered by OSHA's recor

Following the six-step CAPA lifecycle, identification, root cause analysis, action planning, implementation, effectiveness review, and closure, gets you a CAPA. It doesn't get you a CAPA process.

CAPA stands for corrective and preventive action. It is a structured process for investigating the root cause of a problem — such as a workplace incident, audit finding, or quality nonconformity — and implementing actions that both fix the immediate issue and prevent it from happening again. Management system standards
There's no single federal law requiring general "HR compliance training." What actually exists is a patchwork: federal anti-discrimination law that rewards training without technically mandating it, a growing list of states that legally require sexual harassment prevention training with specific hours and cadence, and
OSHA legally requires employers to train any employee facing a risk of electric shock or other electrical hazards ( 29 CFR 1910.332 ), but OSHA has no standard that uses the term "arc flash" by name. NFPA 70E, a voluntary consensus standard, is what most employers actually use to define what that training should cover
A corrective action plan (CAP) is a standalone document that records a specific problem, its root cause, the actions being taken to fix it, who owns each action, and how effectiveness will be verified. It's what you print, export, or send when an OSHA inspector, an ISO auditor, or a customer specifically asks to see a
