Control High-Risk Work Before It Begins.
SAFORA’s Work Permit Management module ensures that all hazardous and high-risk activities are formally reviewed, authorized, and controlled before work starts. By digitizing the Permit-to-Work (PTW) process, organizations eliminate unsafe practices, reduce human error, and ensure full compliance with internal and regulatory requirements.
Why Work Permit Control Matters
Uncontrolled high-risk tasks can lead to serious injuries, downtime, compliance violations, and operational disruption. SAFORA ensures:
- Prevents high-risk incidents by ensuring safety checks are completed before hazardous work begins
- Ensures proper authorization so only approved personnel can perform critical tasks
- Identifies and controls hazards before work starts through risk assessment and safety measures
- Improves coordination between teams by clearly communicating responsibilities and approvals
- Supports regulatory compliance with documented permit approvals and safety controls
- Reduces operational risks by monitoring and managing high-risk activities systematically
- Ensures full compliance with internal and regulatory requirements
Work does not begin until approval is granted, ensuring controlled and safe execution.
How Work Permits Work in Safora
Permit Request Submission
Users submit a structured work permit request including task details, identified hazards, and proposed safety control measures.
Automated Routing
The request is automatically routed to the relevant SHE/EHS reviewers based on predefined approval workflows.
Review & Validation
SHE reviewers assess the request by verifying hazard identification, risk levels, safety measures, and compliance requirements. They can approve, reject, or pause the permit with comments for clarification.
Final Approval
Once the review is completed, the request is forwarded to the authorized officer for final approval. The officer reviews the permit details and confirms whether the work can proceed.
Permit Issuance
After approval, the work permit can be generated and printed, allowing the authorized team to begin the work under approved safety conditions.
