Evotix presents digital permit-to-work software for bringing job details, hazards, conditions, approvals, and conflicting permits into one control-of-work view. An approved permit can authorize work under stated conditions; it cannot prove those conditions still exist when the crew starts, pauses, hands over, or resumes the job.
SiteDocs presents digital safety-management software for field documentation, forms, worker participation, and reporting. A completed inspection, toolbox talk, or corrective-action form can show that required documentation was submitted, but the EHS record still needs evidence that the identified hazard was controlled at the applicable location and time.
NIOSH ranks elimination, substitution, and engineering controls above administrative controls and PPE. EHS records should explain selection and performance.
The December 2025 operating date expands the national electronic record to exported hazardous waste and changes responsibility for submission and fees.
The March 2026 proposal would move the national manifest system toward fully electronic workflows, raising practical questions about identity, signatures, offline operations, corrections, and system integration.
