Home/ Product/ Permit to Work

No permit issues without a current JHA.

Work permits with built-in JHA dependency, isolation tracking, and auto-enforced expiry. The paper permit your team forgets in a locker: finally digital.

The problem

Paper permits don't survive a wash-down.

A permit to work is the last line of defence before high-risk work. On paper it gets forgotten in a locker, soaked, or lost. ENSURE makes it digital: the permit can't issue without the right JHA, every accepter signs on at the start and off at the end, and expiry is enforced automatically.

Required JHA before issue

Org setting: PTW requires a current JHA. When on, the permit form has a dropdown filtered to active JHAs and won't submit without one picked. You link the JHA that backs the permit, so the team works to the same hazard analysis.

  • Per-org toggle: required / optional / by permit type
  • JHA dropdown filtered to currently-active records
  • Linked to the JHA that backs the permit

Auto-expiry with extension workflow

Permits expire at the configured time, full stop. Want to extend? That re-triggers the issue workflow. The issuer re-approves the new validity window. No silent extensions. No "we forgot to close it."

  • Server-enforced expiry: not a UI nag
  • Extension re-triggers approver re-approval
  • Expired permits are locked: no work under them

Connected to everything else

A permit sits in a chain of evidence.

The JHA before, the permit during, the close-out after. If anything goes wrong, the trail is one query, not three filing cabinets.
