Barrick Gold Corporation, a prominent mining company with 16 operating sites across 13 countries, has introduced the OHS Risk Reporting Register—a free, web-based system designed to enhance the way safety events are recorded, managed, and reported on mining sites. Headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Barrick Gold recognized the need for a robust solution to streamline safety reporting processes across its global operations.

The OHS Risk Reporting Register is hosted in the cloud, making it accessible from anywhere via an internet browser. This flexibility ensures that safety events can be promptly reported and managed, no matter where the site is located. The system is also highly customizable, allowing it to be tailored to the specific needs of each mining site, ensuring that all safety requirements are met.

Key features of the system include the ability to record incidents, track hazard cards, register workplace interactions, and conduct site audits and inspections. It also allows for the assignment and monitoring of corrective actions, ensuring that all safety issues are addressed efficiently and effectively.

Security is a top priority, with the system offering multiple access levels to ensure that data is protected and only accessible to authorized personnel. Additionally, automated email alerts can be set up to notify users of assigned tasks and progress, keeping everyone informed and on track.

The OHS Risk Reporting Register also offers comprehensive reporting capabilities, including system health checks, hazard tracking, incident logs, and audits. These reports provide valuable insights into the safety performance of each site, helping to maintain high standards of occupational health and safety across Barrick Gold’s operations.

This innovative system represents Barrick Gold Corporation’s ongoing commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of its employees, making it a critical tool in their global safety management strategy.
