無論是為了鼓勵員工回報意外事故，或者是尋找一個簡單好上手的工具，在評估安環軟體時，考量的因素都有非常多種。
該從哪裡下手？又該怎麼挑選出最適合公司的系統呢？
所有安環軟體的目的都是為了讓員工能改善衛生、工安和勞動環境的狀況。這幾個項目是不同的領域，要挑出一個能正確應用於這些項目的軟體並不容易──除非你很清楚你在找的是什麼。
無論是為了鼓勵員工回報意外事故，或者是尋找一個簡單好上手的工具，在評估安環軟體時，考量的因素都有非常多種。
在這篇文章中，我們將選出一個好的安環軟體必備的五個優點。
Portability 可攜性
昂貴又麻煩、需要在各別電腦安裝且只能在指定裝置上使用的軟體已經過時了。現代的環安衛應用程式不但輕便、並且可以透過多個裝置連接：從桌上型電腦、平板到智慧型手機皆可。.
User-centric design使用者導向設計
與安環有關的工作任務通常都是複雜的、且帶有分析與數據性質，但這不代表使用的軟體也得跟著難以上手或難以理解。
企業級的軟體日漸往更簡便、更使用者導向的方向前進。當你在試用安環軟體時，不要閱讀說明文件，試著靠自己理解軟體運作的基本方法。如果你可以靠自己的力量了解操作方式，並且覺得使用過程很愉快──那代表你走對路了。
Modular模組化
尋找提供End-to-end解決方案[1]的環安衛軟體吧！這樣的軟體通常會以模組的方式呈現，每個模組間可互相連接、單獨使用時也能有精準的表現。
模組化的系統可隨著業務增長而擴展，且大部分都提供客製服務，使用者因而可以選擇最適合自己的模組，日後業務擴展時也可確保各模組間可以順利協作。
Low cost of ownership降低成本
在現今的企業軟體市場，你不需要再將大量的公司預算分給軟體工具的採購。從SaaS（Software as a Service軟體即服務）[2]的概念下手吧。SaaS的概念是「租賃」而不是「擁有」，這樣的做法可以降低使用成本，使用者支付月費或年費，即可享受定期的版本更新。
Early warning capability防範未然
一個「好的」安環軟體能夠讓員工輕鬆地記錄所有意外事件，管理階層能夠分析和量化所有數據以達到風險控制和保護員工的目的。除了上述功能，一個「優秀的」安環軟體還需要能預知未來。
你選擇的安環軟體必須有具有即早警示的功能，讓管理階層可以預先察覺安環衛生管理上漏洞並提早採取行動。這項功能可以縮短意外回報時間、加快搶救過程，同時確保企業內除了高風險區域以外的地方也能被妥善的控管。
總結
希望以上幾點可以幫助你尋找到最完美的安環軟體。如果你手邊評估的產品只擁有其中一項優點，那麼，換下一個試試吧！
[1]. End-to-end Solution (E2ES)
所謂的End-to-end解決方案（即End-to-End Solution，以下簡稱E2ES） 指得是某一軟體、程式或系統供應商在安裝、架設或整合產品時，可獨立滿足客戶的所有軟硬體需求，客戶不需再另外尋找其他供應商。
[2]. Software as a Service (SaaS)
「軟體即服務」是一種軟體的交付模式。此種模式以雲端方式代管軟體及其相關的資料，用戶經由一個網頁瀏覽器即可使用相關服務，不需額外安裝，可以降低企業IT成本。近年常見的商務管理軟體，例如CRM、ERP或人資會計系統等大多皆採用此種模式。
Five Benefits to Look for in Your EH&S Software
October 31, 2016
There are many reasons you might be looking for EH&S software; whether it’s trying to increase your visibility by encouraging employees to report incidents or looking for something that’s easy for everyone to use.
Where do you start? How do you pick the most appropriate system for your organization?On the face of it, all EH&S software purports to help improve the health and safety of a business and the environment inhabited by its employees. They’re all different, though, and picking the right one can be rather tricky. Unless you know what to look for, of course.In this post, we’ve got 5 benefits to seek out in EH&S software:
1.Portability
Gone are the days of expensive, cumbersome software that needs to be installed separately on every PC and only made accessible on designated machines. Modern EH&S applications are light on their feet and accessible across multiple devices from desktop PCs to tablets and smartphones.However, be wary of web applications that don’t offer native apps for platforms such as iOS and Android; for the best experience, shortlist EH&S software that is available in all mobile device app stores. If in doubt, a quick search on your smartphone or tablet should confirm their existence.
2.User-centric design
The tasks associated with EH&S are often complex, analytical and statistics-based, but that doesn’t mean the software you use to run this vital part of the business should be unapproachable and difficult to get to grips with.Enterprise-level software now comes in smaller and far more user-centric packages. When testing EH&S software, don’t approach the user documentation; see if you can get to grips with the basics on your own. If you can, and if you find the application a joy to use – you’re on the right track.
3.Modular
Hunt down the EH&S software offerings that feature an end-to-end solution. This will usually come in the form of modules, all interconnectable but highly proficient in their own right.Modular systems are scalable to grow with the business and often allow for user customization so you can pick the modules that are most useful for your business as it grows and be assured they work together without problems.
4.Low cost of ownership
Clearly, you’re not going to find worthy EH&S software on Apple’s App Store for 79p. But in the new world of enterprise software, you no longer have to allocate significant chunks of a company budget to the procurement of such tools.Look for a ‘software as a service’ (SaaS) approach. SaaS applications can be considered rented rather than owned which brings the cost of ownership down and means the user benefits from regular updates within the monthly or annual fee.
5.Early warning capability
Good EH&S software will enable employees to easily record all incidents, the data from which can be analyzed and quantified by management in order to control risk and keep employees safe from harm. A great EH&S application goes a step further by offering the ability to look into the future.The EH&S software you choose should possess some form of early warning functionality that allows EH&S managers to spot signs of weakness within the organization’s health and safety regime and act before things go wrong. This can reduce the response time to incidents, limit the time lost to injuries and ensures that every corner of a business is monitored – not just the high-risk areas.
Summary
We hope the above helps in your search for the perfect EH&S application. The right software for your business is out there and, as noted previously, if in any system you find wavers on just one of the five important benefits listed in this post, move on to the next.Learn how Rivo worked with Wincanton to provide them with these five benefits of EH&S Software in our case study: Wincanton – Early Warning of Potential Weaknesses
