The Occupational Health and Safety Authority (OHSA) has launched the novel
Management Information System (MIS). This novel content management system
is specifically designed to streamline and enhance the operational efficiency
across all the OHSA’s units.
The Management Information System is currently in use by OHSA employees,
marking a significant milestone in the Authority’s digital transformation efforts.
This novel system facilitates the management of information being collected by
Occupational Health and Safety Officers (OHS) during their daily interaction
with OHSA’s duty holders and clients, particularly during their enforcement
duties. This take will simplify data sharing between the OHSA’s internal sections,
improve quality and security, and facilitate the statistical capture and reporting
capabilities of the Authority.
Minister for Justice Jonathan Attard said, “The work being undertaken
in the health and safety sector is not limited to changes in legislation and
unprecedented investment in human resources, but also includes investment in
digital infrastructure. This new system is an effective tool for our inspectors, which will not only lead to greater efficiency but also to more effective enforcement and enhanced
cooperation with other entities in the sector. This is yet another initiative that
aligns with both the Government’s work programme for the sector and the
implementation of the recommendations from the Jean Paul Sofia public inquiry.”
