Workplace Safety and Health Information Registry (WSHIR)

WSHIR is a central depository of all safety and health related documents. The module supports a safety and health management system approach that will help stakeholders mitigate risks, satisfy compliance requirements and track safety and health performance. WSHIR will help key safety and health appointees (e.g. safety coordinators and safety leads) to manage and update safety and health information such as licenses, risk assessments, safe work procedures, hazardous materials inventory list, audit/inspection reports etc. The system can also be used for risk profiling of workspace(s), hazard communications and generation of reports for monitoring safety and health performance.

Accident and Incident Management System (AIMS)

AIMS is a platform for the management of accident and incident reporting, investigation and monitoring. It allows online reporting of incidents by NUS staff and students and facilitates follow-up by the investigating officer. Information captured is used in the identification of root cause(s) of incidents, tracking of corrective and preventive measures. The system can also generate reports for trend analysis.

More information and details about AIMS are available here .
