COSHH software and hazardous substance register

Cleaning products, paints, solvents, fuels, dusts and fumes can all cause serious harm. The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH) require employers to know what hazardous substances are used or produced at work, assess the risks, and prevent or adequately control exposure.

The first step is a reliable list of every hazardous substance on site. MYRA Compliance turns that list into a living COSHH register.

One register for every substance

Record each product with the details you need for a COSHH assessment:

• product name, chemical name, CAS number and product code
• supplier, location, department and quantity in use
• hazard classification and routes of exposure
• workplace exposure limits in ppm and mg/m³
• PPE required and control measures
• storage and disposal requirements

Safety data sheets kept current

Link every substance to its safety data sheet and record the date it was issued and the date it is due for review. When a sheet is out of date, you will know it is time to ask your supplier for the latest version.

First aid information to hand

Record first aid measures for each route of exposure: breathing it in, skin contact, eye contact and swallowing. In an emergency, the right information is a few taps away rather than buried in a folder.

A risk rating for every product

Give each substance a risk rating from low to critical and record who assessed it and when. Mark substances as active, under review or discontinued, so your register always reflects what is really on site.

Part of your wider risk management

COSHH sits alongside your risk assessments, training records and inspections in MYRA Compliance, so you can link chemical risks to the activities that use them and make sure people are trained to handle them safely. Every feature is included on every plan, with a free 30 day trial.
