EHS decisions that hold up when the inspector asks how you decided
Safety programs do not fail for lack of a form. They fail because the reasoning behind a recordability call, an accepted risk or a reopened permit lives in somebody's memory. Every model here reports what the record establishes and names what is missing. None of them makes the safety determination for you.
Common pain points that structured decision models eliminate.
Whether a case belongs on the OSHA 300 is a legal test, not a judgment call, and the answer is re-argued every time. Apply 29 CFR Part 1904 and keep the reasoning chain that produced the determination.
A hazard accepted two years ago by someone who has left is still accepted. Rank every accepted risk by how defensible it is today, worst first, with the acceptance and its owner on the record.
A likely sprain outranks an improbable fatality on any frequency-sorted list. Rank on expected harm with a floor for catastrophic potential, so the one that could have killed someone cannot sort to the bottom.
The action item raised in a safety committee, an incident review and a hazard triage all live in different places. They arrive in one inbox, and the ones nobody owns are separated from the ones that are merely late.
How teams use DecisionLedger to make better decisions.
Runs recordability on every case as it is reported rather than reconstructing the log in January, so each determination carries the Part 1904 reasoning that produced it and the 300A is assembled from decisions already made.
A year-end log with a documented basis for every entry and omission
Reviews the accepted risk register quarterly, ranked by how defensible each acceptance is today rather than by when it was signed, and reopens the ones whose evidence has aged out.
Stale acceptances found before an inspector finds them
Checks permit preconditions before hot work rather than after, with an effective expiry computed from the earliest of the permit window and every precondition that decays on its own clock.
The governing constraint named, instead of assumed to be the permit date
Reads the reasoning chain behind a contested recordability determination two years after the fact, including what the model could not establish at the time.
A defensible answer to how the call was made, not just what it was
Based on platform benchmarks across early adopters.

Every HR decision model includes built-in regulatory compliance checks. Always audit-ready, never scrambling before a review.
Recordability determination for injury and illness cases, with the reasoning chain retained and the 300 and 300A rendered from it.
Lockout/tagout return-to-service preconditions, including group lockout and removal of another employee's device. Reports what the isolation record shows, never that equipment is safe to energise.
Emergency action plan tested against each scenario it covers, reporting unmet requirements rather than scoring a plan adequate.
Which employer held which category for a hazard over time, reporting gaps and conflicting control claims rather than resolving them.
Return-to-work records checked against the interactive process and direct-threat standard. Makes no fitness determination and accepts no diagnosis.
TRIR and DART compared against published industry rates, with a site below the minimum exposure reported as such rather than ranked.
Hazard intake through to a signed acceptance, with the parts an EHS lead actually spends the week on.
Apply 29 CFR Part 1904 case by case and keep the reasoning chain. The 300 and 300A are rendered from the determinations, so the log and the decisions behind it cannot diverge.
Every accepted hazard risk with who accepted it, on what evidence, and how defensible that acceptance looks now. Ranked worst first rather than filed by date.
A reported hazard reaches an owner by rule rather than by whoever saw it. Unanswered items escalate on a clock, and the escalation is part of the record.
Every requirement aged against its own expiry and reported by criticality, producing a work list rather than a single percentage that hides the expired ones.
Joint labour-management resolutions tracked through to completion, with the ones nobody owns or dated separated from the ones that are simply late.
Safety corrective actions appear in DecisionTasks alongside committee, board, bias and lineage work, linking back to the safety record that owns them.

Power BIPre-built decision models ready to run with your data.
Screens contractor safety records against weighted criteria, refusing to score EMR and TRIR below a minimum exposure and checking expiry on every dated element. It produces no approve or reject decision.
Scores musculoskeletal exposure of a task across repetition, posture, force, vibration and contact stress, with duration as a multiplier, and flags tasks whose risk is cumulative rather than single-factor.
Score how defensible each accepted hazard risk currently is, ranked worst-first.
5 Whys over a fishbone categorisation, flagging analyses that stop at a person and ranking corrective actions by the hierarchy of controls.
Compares logged task execution against the documented Job Hazard Analysis and separates a stale document from an isolated deviation.
Reports which 29 CFR 1910.147(e) return-to-service preconditions the isolation record shows as satisfied, including group lockout and removal of another employee's device. It never determines that equipment is safe to energise.
Bayesian estimate of the probability a near miss would escalate, ranked on expected harm with a priority floor for catastrophic potential so an improbable fatality cannot sort below a likely sprain.
Apply 29 CFR Part 1904 to injury and illness cases and return a recordability determination with its reasoning chain.
Reports whether a hot work, confined space, excavation or live electrical permit is in force, computing an effective expiry from the earliest of the permit window and every precondition that decays on a clock, and naming which one governs.
Reports the protection workers actually get - the assigned factor degraded by usage and fit - against the required factor and the hierarchy of controls, with cost per unit of exposure reduction.
Reads reporting rate, first-response time, closure rate and participation as leading indicators of safety culture, scoring reporting so that higher is better and producing nothing keyed to an individual.
Ages every training requirement against its own expiry and reports by criticality rather than as a single rate, producing a work list rather than a per-manager score.
Three steps to structured, auditable decisions.
A hazard is reported from the portal, a phone, or an assistant conversation. Routing rules put it in front of the right owner, and the clock starts on the record rather than in an inbox.
Run recordability, severity, root cause or permit preconditions. Each returns its reasoning, its confidence and what it could not establish, and attaches to the case.
Corrective actions land in one inbox across every module. The OSHA log, the risk acceptance register and the committee record are assembled from what actually happened, not rebuilt for the audit.
Spreadsheet OSHA logs
A list of entries with no record of why anything is on it, or off it
Signed risk acceptance forms
Acceptances that are never revisited and outlive the person who signed them
Incident rate dashboards
A single rate that improves when reporting drops, and says nothing about the tail
Standalone EHS suites
Safety work sealed off from the decisions, committees and evidence the rest of the organisation runs on
Training completion percentages
One number that hides which critical certifications expired last month
