Document Control That Actually Works

Manage controlled documents — policies, procedures, risk assessments, method statements, COSHH sheets — with version control, review scheduling, approval workflows, and acknowledgement tracking. Everything in one place.

Complete Document Lifecycle Management

Folder Structure

Organise documents by type — policies, procedures, risk assessments, method statements, COSHH sheets. Find what you need instantly with logical structure and search.

Version Control

Every change creates a new version. Previous versions are preserved and comparable. See exactly what changed between version 1.2 and 1.3.

Approval Workflow

Documents go through submit → review → approve/reject. Approvers are notified automatically. No more chasing people for sign-off.

Review Scheduling

Set review dates on every document with automatic alerts when reviews are due. Never miss a document review deadline again.

Acknowledgement Tracking

Require employees to confirm they've read and understood critical documents. Track who has and hasn't acknowledged, with automatic reminders.

Expiry Alerts

Documents with expiry dates — certifications, insurance certificates, equipment test reports — trigger alerts before they expire. Stay compliant automatically.

Acknowledgement Tracking

When you update a critical policy or procedure, you need to know who's read it. Acknowledgement tracking makes that simple.

1

Document Published

You publish a new Health & Safety Policy or update an existing procedure. The system marks it as requiring acknowledgement.

2

Employees Notified

All affected employees receive an in-app notification and email alert. The document appears in their "Documents to Acknowledge" list.

3

Read & Acknowledge

Employees open the document, read it, and click "I have read and understood this document." Timestamp and signature captured.

4

Tracking Dashboard

You see a real-time dashboard showing who has and hasn't acknowledged. Automatic reminders sent to those who haven't responded.

5

Audit Trail

Full record maintained of who read what, when. Perfect for demonstrating compliance to auditors and regulators.

Full Export Capability

Download individual documents or bulk export entire document libraries. Your documents, your data, available whenever you need them for audits, tenders, or regulatory submissions.

Why It Matters

Every auditor asks the same questions: "Show me your current Health & Safety Policy. When was it last reviewed? Who approved it? How do you know employees have read it?"

With EHS Genesis, you answer all four questions in 30 seconds. The policy is in the system with version control, review dates are tracked, approval workflow is documented, and acknowledgement records show exactly who's read it. No filing cabinets, no spreadsheets, no scrambling to find paperwork.
