Use Case · SHEQX®

Hazards that are identified early, not discovered after an incident.

SHEQX® by XGRC® enables organisations to systematically identify workplace hazards using structured, real-world checklists. Capture hazards in the field, assign them for assessment, and track controls through to implementation.

The problem

Unstructured hazard identification leaves risks uncontrolled.

When hazard identification depends on individual awareness and informal reporting, the same risks recur because nobody has a structured way to log, assess, and close them out.

Hazard identification performed inconsistently or only after an incident

Hazards reported verbally with no central record or follow-up

No structured process for escalating high-risk hazards

Limited visibility of recurring or systemic hazard trends across sites

The SHEQX® approach

A structured, repeatable hazard identification process.

01

Walk the site using structured hazard identification checklists

02

Capture physical, chemical, biological, and ergonomic hazards in real time

03

Link identified hazards to the risk register for assessment

04

Assign controls and corrective actions with clear ownership

05

Monitor hazard trends and escalate high-risk findings

How it works

Built for inspectors in the field, visible to risk and safety leaders.

  • Digital hazard identification checklists by area and hazard type
  • Mobile-friendly hazard capture in the field
  • Direct linkage from identified hazards to the risk register
  • Action tracking and escalation for high-risk findings
  • Centralised dashboards and hazard trend reporting

From hazard to control in one system.

SHEQX® links hazard identification directly to Risk Management, so every hazard found in the field feeds the risk register and drives a tracked control. Leadership gets real-time visibility of hazard trends across sites without waiting for the next incident.

From manual to SHEQX®

The same hazard walks, without the blind spots.

Manual approach
  • Hazards reported verbally with no record
  • No link between hazards and the risk register
  • High-risk findings not escalated consistently

Frequently asked

Common questions.

What is a hazard identification checklist?

A hazard identification checklist provides a structured way to systematically identify physical, chemical and ergonomic workplace hazards, rather than relying on informal observation or waiting for an incident to reveal a risk.

Does an identified hazard automatically feed the risk register?

Yes. Hazards identified in the field link directly to the risk register for formal assessment, so a hazard walk feeds structured risk management rather than ending as a standalone note.

How are high-risk hazards escalated?

High-risk findings are escalated automatically, so a serious hazard reaches the right person immediately rather than waiting in a queue with lower-priority items.

Which standards does hazard identification align to?

Hazard identification aligns to ISO 45001, ISO 14001 and ISO 9001, and covers physical, chemical, biological and ergonomic hazards including working at height and confined spaces.
