Permits are there for a reason. They are not just a formality, a signature box or another bit of admin that slows the job down. They are a control point. They help make sure the right people are doing the right work, in the right place, at the right time, with the right checks completed before the work begins.
The problem is that many permit systems still rely on paper forms, spreadsheets, shared folders, email chains and conversations that nobody can properly track. A permit may be filled in, signed, scanned, photographed, emailed or filed away, but that does not always mean the process is under control.
For team leaders, supervisors, managers, directors and business owners, that creates risk. If someone needs to know who approved a permit, what checks were completed, what documents were linked, when the permit expired, or whether the worker had the right training, the answer should not involve digging through inboxes.
MyCompliance Manager brings together everything you need to manage compliance in one connected system, keeping it clear, controlled and easy to manage.
MyPermit Manager gives teams a digital way to create, issue, review, approve and monitor permits from one system, instead of relying on disconnected records and manual processes.
This could include permits for high-risk work, maintenance tasks, contractor activity, site access, hot works, working at height, confined spaces, electrical work, isolation procedures or any other permit-controlled activity. The exact setup can be shaped around how the organisation works, but the principle stays the same.
Every permit should have a clear record. That means knowing what the permit relates to, who requested it, who approved it, when it became active, when it expires, what evidence was attached, what requirements were checked and what actions were taken before work started.
A permit is only useful if the checks behind it are reliable. MyPermit Manager can support a more structured approval process by helping link permits to the information that matters.
That may include training records, qualifications, RAMS, method statements, risk assessments, insurance documents, site inductions, equipment checks, policy acknowledgements or other required documents. Instead of treating these as separate pieces of information, they can become part of the permit process.
This helps managers move away from assumption. If a task requires specific competence, documents or approvals, the system can help make those requirements clearer before the permit is issued.
Permit management also needs to stay visible once the work has been approved. Managers need to know what is active, what is pending, what has expired, what needs review and what has been closed. With clear permit statuses, teams are not relying on static documents, old spreadsheets or someone remembering to send an update.
That live view matters when work is moving quickly. A supervisor should not have to chase around to find out whether a permit is still valid. A manager should not have to search through folders to see whether an approval was completed. A business owner should not have to hope the process is being followed because nobody has flagged a problem.
MyPermit Manager sits inside MyCompliance Manager, which means permits do not have to exist on their own. They can connect with forms, documents, policies, incidents, training records and other compliance information across the business.
That makes the permit process more useful. A permit can link to the documents that support the work. A form can capture checks before, during or after the task. An incident report can connect back to the permit record if something goes wrong. A policy acknowledgement can show whether someone has accepted the rules linked to that activity.
This is where compliance becomes stronger. Not because there is more paperwork, but because the right information is connected, easier to find and harder to ignore.
MyPermit Manager helps organisations move from loose permit processes to clearer digital control. It supports better checks, stronger records, live permit statuses and a more reliable way to manage work that needs approval.
Because when permits matter, they should not be buried in paperwork.
They should be visible, controlled and ready to prove.
Paper permits are easy to lose, hard to track and difficult to audit. My Permit Manager gives you a live, structured system where everything is recorded and visible.
