Investigations - Direct Assignment

Report Subscriptions
- Reports have a new button in the top right to allow Subscriptions.
- The dropdown option allows management of existing subscriptions.
- Users select a Delivery Frequency and Time, as well as custom Titles and Parameters.
- The system emails users on following the schedule with a link to their report.
Announcements - Targeted Audience
- Two new options when creating Announcements:
- Limit by Business Entity
- Notifications
- Limit by Business Entity limits visibility in the dashboard and email sending to the people whose user Business Hierarchy is at (or below) the selected Business Entity.
- Notifications allow emails to be sent to various user types.
- Previously emails could only send to Users, Guests, Kiosks, and Device - now users can send announcements to all Managed Contacts as well.
Vendor Request - Hide Documentation From Submit
- Prevents the first user to submit the Vendor Request form from being overwhelmed by extra, non-required fields.
- The fields become visible as soon as the Request is submitted.
Form Designer - Custom Email/Print View Footer
- In Form Designer, under Emails and Print Views, users can now define a custom Footer to show at the bottom of the document.
- Defined Per Email and Per Print View
Training and Skills Reports - Hidden From New Pattern
- Training and Skills Reports now show "Hidden" requirements in a new style.
Print Views - "Blank Form" Printing
- When printing a blank form, the system now gives more space to "write in" missing fields.
OSHA Reporting - Combined 180-Day Cap
- OSHA Directive Number: CPL 02-00-135: "“Employers are allowed to cap the number of days away and/or restricted work/job transfer when a case involves 180 calendar days.”
- OSHA clarifies here that the regulation says you must record “Lost Time” and “Restricted Time” and may cap them at 180 days. That the 180-day cap may be “combined” and not “each.”
- Capping the time is not a requirement of the regulation, some companies may choose to cap either way (or not at all).
- Our default is “180-days Each” but we now also have a setting for “180-day Combined.”
- This only affects the OSHA 300, 300A reports.
Native App - Improved Login Experience
- An improved, cleaner look for customer login along with an improved error message when the site name given doesn't exist
- If users need to enter a site that isn't ehsinsight.com, they can type in the full address in the field and the .ehsinsight.com will disappear.
- Example: test.ehspreview.com if you want to see a site on ehspreview
