1 Connected Plant COMPLIANCE MANAGER Enabling a Safe, Compliant Working Environment

2 Compliance Manager addresses worker safety challenges Industrial companies today face numerous challenges related to the safety of employees and contractors working at their sites. Are these people qualified to work safely on site? Many companies don t have adequate visibility into the safety compliance of a worker or their personal protective equipment (PPE) for a specific job, task or facility zone. Nor do they have easy access to the data they need to effectively manage worker safety. The data that would otherwise provide this insight certification and training records, and personal protective equipment (PPE) criteria is often lost in a sea of paper records, spreadsheets, databases and offline tools that require substantial effort to access and keep updated. The result? Safety staff spend more time in their offices managing records instead of in the field, where they are most valuable. And there is a real risk of non-compliance that could lead to lost work hours, safety incidents, fines from regulatory authorities or reputational damage. Honeywell Compliance Manager is a cloud-based solution that addresses these challenges. It provides Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) personnel and site managers with visibility into the readiness of industrial workers in terms of their training and the PPE they use to perform their jobs safely, productively and confidently, and in full compliance with corporate and government safety regulations. Compliance Manager can be integrated with Honeywell s Experion Industrial Security (EIS) platform for security applications to enforce rules and ensure that employees can access zones they are qualified to work in. With its holistic approach to safety and compliance, and capabilities that exploit Honeywell s industrial safety heritage and know-how, Compliance Manager helps customers lower risk, minimize downtime and reduce operational cost and complexity. Compliance Manager JOB COMPLIANCE Which workers are fully compliant? TRAINING Has the worker completed the right training? Is he or she certified for the job at hand? EQUIPMENT ASSIGNMENT Which worker is assigned to it? EQUIPMENT INSPECTIONS Was this harness inspected on schedule? Is it compliant?

3 Increased value for stakeholders Compliance Manager solves a variety of issues for stakeholders including HSE personnel, operational teams, contractors and business leaders in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, mining and minerals and ultilities concerned with maintaining safe working environments, ensuring compliance and reducing incidents that can affect their reputation. For companies with high-risk production environments such as drilling rigs, offshore platforms and downstream facilities, Compliance Manager reduces the risk of incidents by ensuring the compliance of employees and contractors to safety training and equipment inspection guidelines. The solution can integrate with Honeywell s Experion Industrial Security platform to restrict worker entry to specific zones based on their status within Compliance Manager. The multi-functional platform and can be configured to facilitate mustering in the event of an incident, reducing time and enabling a faster search for missing personnel. For energy, procurement and construction (EPC) contractors, project management contractors (PMCs) and safety equipment inspection service providers who work across multiple sites, Compliance Manager ensures compliance to both their own and their customer s site safety requirements. It also provides a growth opportunity by allowing them to demonstrate their safety commitment to clients and prospects. The solution provides easy, secure access to compliance information for stakeholders including site project teams, corporate HSE teams and customers who might require compliance information from contractors. Compliance Manager can reduce total cost of ownership and improve compliance and productivity that results from a typical noncompliant site. Users also benefit from the efficiencies of the cloud, including: lower cost of ownership; no CAPEX maintenance costs; and secure, enterprise-wide access to information.

4 Key applications reduce administration and risk Compliance Manager transforms the capabilities of a company s safety function by integrating the management of training, PPE assets and worker compliance onto a single, cloud-based interface that can be securely accessed by multiple stakeholders via a desktop or mobile device. This provides a real-time record of compliance, helping them reduce administration and risk. Key applications of the solution include: Tracking worker compliance with safety policies Many companies have limited visibility into whether an employee or contractor has been trained to safely undertake a job at hand, or whether the right safety equipment has been allocated to them. By centralizing real-time safety data, Compliance Manager tracks and manages the compliance of every worker at a facility. With information at their fingertips, system users can quickly and appropriately take action to ensure compliance. Tracking the safety compliance of contractors workers Compliance Manager s secure, cloud-based architecture is designed to allow contractors to access the system in order to enter their employees training and qualification data. This increases visibility into workers compliance to site safety requirements while reducing the administrative burden of managing records for HSE teams. When contract workers arrive at the gate, Compliance Manager knows whether or not they are qualified to work. This helps ease the workload of gate personnel responsible for issuing gate passes. Tracking specialized PPE for compliance Compliance Manager allows users to check if high value safety equipment has been inspected on schedule and is safe to use. The app allows them to drill into the maintenance schedule and inspection history of equipment such as gas detectors,fall harnesses and fire

5 extinguishers. The system alerts users when equipment inspections are required or if gear is out-of-certification. Additionally, Compliance Manager helps streamline the scheduling and recording of equipment inspections. PPE assignments and inspections Compliance Manager helps manage PPE assets by tracking inspections and assignments to workers based on their job requirements. Additionally, high value and critical shared PPE assets can tracked based on their last allocation, which is vital in the event of an emergency. Compliance Manager supports high value PPE including: harnesses, lanyards, respirators, SCBAs, and wearable gas detectors; plus safety equipments such as eye wash stations, fire extinguishers, ladders, smoke detectors, safety showers and tool boxes. Improve efficiency of training management Traditionally, HSE teams spend hours tracking employee training, scheduling training curricula for different functional roles, assigning instructors and confirming attendance. Compliance Manager helps HSE teams define courses and assign them to specific job functions or sites. If an employee s job function changes or an new employee joins, Compliance Manager alerts administrators which courses the worker needs to take, and at what frequency and will flag if a worker needs re-certification. Integration with Experion Industrial Security Platform- With large worforce on site and wide spread operations automating controls enforcing safety policy to restrict non compliant workers access to the site/ area is a big challenge. Compliance Manager integrates with Honeywell s Experion Industrial Security platform (EIS) which manages the facilities access control system, the integration enables enforcement of safety compliance policies by restricting access to non compliant workers to the site/ area based on their compliance status in Compliance Manager. Restricting access to non compliant workers to the facility or area reduces the risk of safety incident and penalties. Integration with Honeywell Connected Solutions Compliance Manager can integrate with Honeywell Connected Solutions if business needs dictate. For example, the solution can work alongside Honeywell hearing protection systems, which limit exposure to noisy environments; access control and electronic mustering via Honeywell s access control system; and Honeywell wearable connected gas devices that facilitate inspections, calibration and management.
