Employee Competency Management

Increase your ability to assess and demonstrate corporate best practice related to critical tasks, procedures and employee competence

Using our SkillsTRAK® module, your corporation can more effectively demonstrate that it is executing necessary and reasonable control to develop, assess and protect its employees as they perform regular and hazardous tasks. SkillsTRAK® helps you identify and prioritize site specific hazards based on your risk ranking methods. It then helps you define individual job tasks and critical procedures to ensure work is performed safely. Finally, by relating these procedures to an individual’s profile and job location, you can effectively assess your employees for job-task competence.

SkillsTRAK® provides administrators and employees with easy access to job tasks and procedure descriptions, progressive training requirements, performance assessments, and site-specific procedure and job skill development tools.

Implementing SkillsTRAK® allows you to proactively:

  • Demonstrate safe and consistent control of your industrial work environment
  • Ensure that employees can competently operate to documented standards
  • Investigate and improve operational inefficiencies
  • Orient and train new employees more rapidly and effectively
  • Optimize employee safety and knowledge
  • Gather and retain the knowledge of an aging workforce
  • Mitigate the risk associated with unsafe work practices

SkillsTRAK® is a comprehensive tool within ICMS® which uses an integrated Hazard Assessment and Risk Management (HARM®) process to identify hazards and assess the risk relative to those hazards. Training and skill requirements can be identified and associated with critical tasks and procedures to ensure that employees meet the job profile. Where necessary, as part of a SkillsTRAK® implementation, Beyond Compliance can provide subject matter expertise to ensure that the system meets the unique needs of your corporate environment.

What is a Job Hazard Assessment? Supervisors can use the findings of a job hazard analysis to eliminate and prevent hazards in their workplaces. This is likely to result in fewer worker injuries and illnesses; safer, more effective work methods; reduced workers’ compensation costs; and increased worker productivity. The analysis also can be a valuable tool for training new employees in the steps required to perform their jobs safely” View PDF

“Section 217.1 places responsibility on employers to provide sufficient due diligence to ensure that workers follow site specific safety standards. At the end of the day, employers have a legislated requirement to demonstrate safe and consistent control of the work environment.”
