Risk Assessment Software

Risk assessment is a key component of any Health & Safety policy and with Safeguard’s intuitive Risk Assessment software, you have full control and visibility of risk assessments across your organization.
Safeguard also benefits from a dedicated module for Chemical Control/REACH, ensuring you have full management and control of your hazardous substance risk assessments.
Simplify Data Capture
Using Safeguard’s comprehensive functionality combined with its powerful flexibility, risk assessment templates can be designed and configured specifically for you, ensuring users are asked only to record information relevant to the risk assessment they are undertaking.
Why settle for a one-size-fits-all risk assessment template? If appropriate for your organization, Safeguard supports multiple template formats, including for example, task-based, fire, manual handling, driving, asbestos, prevention through design, management of change, or bow tie, eliminating confusion and guiding the user through an easy-to-interpret, standardized risk assessment process. Include method statements, safe systems of work, action plans, upload supporting electronic documentation – your risk assessments, your methodology, your forms.
Support Your Methodology
Whether you use a 3x3, 5x5, or perhaps something very specific to your organization or industry, Safeguard incorporates your risk matrix and corresponding risk calculation.
As is standard with any Safeguard module, you can incorporate help text throughout your templates, guiding users through the sometimes daunting risk assessment process.
Encourage Collaborative Working
Why re-invent the wheel? At the touch of a button, Safeguard enables you to take best practise risk assessments and share them amongst colleagues throughout your organization. This helps eliminate any duplication of effort, provides a standardized approach to the completion of risk assessments, shares best practices and encourage a positive risk management culture.
Fully Integrated Action Planning
Safeguard's powerful action management provides you with complete reassurance that the decisions you make and action plans you put in to place are acted upon. Actions can be assigned to colleagues, with automated email notifications ensuring complete visibility and accountability at every step in the action lifecycle.
Increase Risk Assessment Completion

Safeguard’s powerful workflow engine and email notification system helps our clients to engage the right people throughout the risk assessment process and ensure awareness of responsibility at all stages.
Safeguard’s peer review and approval workflow provides significant confidence to the end user that those with relevant qualifications and experience will check the content they have created before signing-off the document and making it available to the workforce.
With Safeguard’s on-going review process, you define the review periods for your risk assessments, guaranteeing you never let your risk assessments lapse and become obsolete. Whether a blanket review period (for example, every 12 months) or periodic reviews (based on the risk rating, for example high=6 months, medium=12 months, low=24 months), automatic email notifications are delivered to those responsible to remind them of these key events.
