Version 1.6 Released!

This release includes a number of new functions, however one of the larger pieces of work was retrofitting the site to support basic functionality on Internet explorer.

Internet explorer is Microsoft Windows previous default browser, however it no longer receives full support from Microsoft. It has number of security issues, limited support and is no longer Windows default brower. Our site will now allow some functionality to work in IE, but for your own general internet security we highly recommend you move to a newer browser such as Chrome, Firefox or Edge and if not for your own security, then for the sanity of our developers.

Here is the full 1.6 list of changes:

  • Archive a SWMS.
    This functionality is designed to be used when a SWMS is no longer in use. Once archived you will no longer be able to send the SWMS to workers, make revisions, or perform monitoring tasks.
    Archiving will stop the SWMS from showing in the project screen, so it’s a great way to clear out old SWMS.
    Archived SWMS will always be available within the platform to view historically. To show archived swms set the appropriate filter on the project screen.

  • Attachments within SWMS
    When creating a SWMS, attachments can now be added to both the Risks & Hazards, and the Controls sections.
    These attachments will be available to workers who are signing the SWMS as well as anyone else reviewing the SWMS.
    Attachments may be images, videos or PDFs that would help highlight the particular controls or risks

  • Kiosk registration mode
    This is functionality for a shared mobile device, for workers don’t have a smartphone or don’t wish to user their own device. Any logged in user with access to the SWMS can put the device into “kiosk mode”, and pass the device to a worker to complete their registration.

  • Support for Internet Explorer
    Authentication, login, signup, email verification, password reset now work on IE. Some SWMS functionality also works on IE.
    This will resolve issues for users who’s default browser is IE and have email links launch the website in IE only to display a blank page.

  • Intercom live chat is available throughout the site
    You may get in contact with our support team while using the application on a desktop browser using the chat icon in the bottom left of the screen.

  • Dashboard drill down
    Tiles within the dashboard are now clickable and will take you through to the list of SWMS corresponding to the selected dashboard item.

  • 24 new Quiz images

  • Filters are now persistent
    Filters added to the project screen will now stay active even when navigation moves away from and returns to the project screen

  • PCs can now sign up with a credit card as part of the onboarding process
    Previously a PC would need to contact support to create a new account, an account can now be created in the same manner as a PCBU.
    Enterprise licencing still requires contact with support.

  • Review frequency field added (optional).
    This is the length of time identified in the PC or PCBU’s WHS Management Plan as being the maximum time allowed between formal monitoring activities. This will set reminders to the associated stakeholders and remind them to coordinate a monitoring activity.
    The monitoring dashboard will now highlight if this is overdue, or how many days left until breached.

  • Names of workers who participated in the SWMS field added on SWMS creation (optional)

    Names of workers or HSE reps who have assisted the SWMS Creator during the development of the SWMS can now be added. This is to show that workers or their representitives have been actively included in the SWMS creation.

  • Secondary PCBU’s field added on SWMS creation

    This is to acknowledge that there may be other PCBU’s required to assist with completing the HRCW. This identifies additional known stakeholders who will implement the controls in this SWMS.

  • Renamed content

    • “Suggested content” has been changed to “Commonly used”

    • PCBU field now renamed with more helpful “Filter by person conducting business or undertaking (PCBU)”

  • Numbers displayed when selecting controls to be monitored are now red circles, like universal notification icons rather than a black circle.

Bug Fixes

  • A review email to a PC for a new revision of an existing SWMS did not directly send the user to the new revision.

  • The SWMS review date was showing incorrectly, it showed as UTC instead of the local time.

  • The worker activity log did not correctly show the first worker invitation.

  • On firefox browser, the continue button for the last HRCW in the SWMS did not display correctly or was missing

  • Some minor text changes to email templates

  • When a worker is reviewing a SWMS, sometimes the continue button was not visible.
