Criticality of HSE for safer, complied, and sustainable operations

Following best practices and complying with Health Safety Environment(HSE) standards, has become one of the core necessities for businesses to grow, scale-up, sustain and thus be socially responsible safety of people working in company and the community and sustainable goals towards environment.

Government, global organizations stepping up the standards and governance across all industries like Manufacturing, Power, Oil & Gas and large facilities during construction, operations, and maintenance phases. This even applicable to Mines, seaports, airports, rails and road transportation.

Governments, industry, and companies are also fast transforming to adopt Health Safety Environment international guidelines into their constructions/manufacturing processes and their operations and maintenance processes also and periodically both to governments as well as to financiers the HSE compliance reports needs to be shared for review and advice.

As a result of factors like above, the need for HSE Solutions in industry had drastically increased. Envision with deep understanding and research and exposure to HSE has come up with an solution framework for configuring and implementing HSE processes for respective industry. HSE solutions also helps identify/avoid, mitigate, and manage EHS-risks and its impacts in respective domain-projects. HSE domain specific solutions like mining for example are also being extended to track efficient use of natural resources, mitigating climate-related risks, leveraging innovative energy solutions, managing occupational health and safety etc.

The HSE dimension is a core part of the strategic and operations management of projects, particularly across Environmental, Occupational health and safety, community health and safety, construction, order commissioning stages of the project.

Generate lesser and safe emissions to Air and can impacts air quality. Consume energy in process heating and cooling, processes involving auxiliary systems such as motors, pumps, and fans. Compressed air systems and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems (HVAC); and lighting systems

Systems that have either direct or indirect discharge of process wastewater, wastewater from utility operations or stormwater to environment.

Aim for Water conservation which can involve measures for water monitoring/management, process and cooling/heating water recycling, reuse, sanitary water conservation techniques.

Hazardous material projects that use, store, or handle any quantity of hazardous materials which represent a risk to human health, property, or environment due to their physical or chemical characteristics.

Waste Management Projects that generate, store, or handle waste across a range of industry sectors.

Systems involving Impacts of noise propagation beyond the property boundary of the facilities

Land is considered contaminated when it contains hazardous materials or oil concentrations above background or naturally occurring levels. Release of these materials may be result of historic or current site activities, including, but not limited to, accidents during their handling and storage, or due to their poor management or disposal and which has a human risk element

Projects involving Principal risks to occupational health and safety to workers and supervisors in engineering, construction, and operations-management phase of the projects.

This can span across physical, chemical, biological hazards and can also demand special monitoring devices for handling the risk and will involve lots of trainings to be provided.

Involving activities that can impact community outside of traditional project boundaries or factories. Some of the impacts can be items like water quality and availability, Structural safety of project infrastructure, Life and Fire safety, Traffic safety, transportation of hazardous materials, Disease preventions, emergency preparedness and responses

All activities either during construction stage or at the end of the project life cycle, or due to expansion or modification of existing project facilities again demand the occupational health and safety guidelines compliance for personnel involved and the community

As recent international guidelines both financial institutions and global standards firms like ISO are mandating Health Safety and Environment management dimensions in any project complying to respective ISO guidelines etc. hence there is a need of comprehensive feature rich HSE solution.

Envision offers a Comprehensive HSE solution platform as an extension to Supply chain management solution supporting key HSE functionalities like Incident management, Occupational health and safety Engineering Review management, Training Management, Inspection/ISO auditing management system. Additionally, newer modules are strategized to meet the industry demand for efficient usage of natural resources, mitigating climate-related risks, innovative energy solutions.
