AuditSoft: Level the COR™ Playing Field

If you are in construction and a member of the OGCA, or work for one of their members, then you understand the importance of an effective Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) management system to your organization. It is critical in protecting and ensuring the health, safety and overall well-being of your workforce; and achieving an Infrastructure Health and Safety Association (IHSA) Certificate of Recognition (COR™) is how you demonstrate the effective implementation of such a system.

Achieving COR™ is becoming a widespread and industry-mandated requirement for construction, not only in Ontario, but also across Canada, and this trend is increasing. In cases where COR™ is not yet a requirement, it can still help qualify you ahead of others or be a key component of your bid.

For many small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), COR™ may seem like a barrier, a hurdle only larger organizations with available time and resources can overcome. But with the right tools, completing a successful audit can be simple and cost-effective. 

AuditSoft was founded on the premise of making COR™ more accessible and affordable through the application of technology. With AuditSoft, COR™ is now in reach of all organizations, especially SMEs that don’t always have access to the resources and in-house expertise needed to achieve COR™. 

Not only does AuditSoft provide resources and guide organizations through the process of getting ready for COR™, but it also facilitates the COR™ audit process, both internal and external audits. Through automation and standardization, it creates considerable efficiencies throughout the audit process, saving organizations up to 50% of the time and money it takes for a traditional audit.  

Through its interactive technology, AuditSoft supports your organization’s ability to identify the disparities and areas for improvement in your OHS management system. Purpose-built, the application guides you as you successfully map your journey toward COR™. AuditSoft provides online resources and support to help address any gaps you find. This assists your organization in easily adopting COR™ through the efficiencies and value that AuditSoft technology delivers. 

By empowering more organizations, especially SMEs, with its technology-based solution to successfully adopt and achieve COR™, AuditSoft believes this will help level the playing field for organizations of all sizes competing for construction projects and contracts. Lastly, after achieving COR™, AuditSoft also facilitates its maintenance through the approved IHSA COR™ Audit Software Application.

Use AuditSoft if you’re an organization looking to:

• Implement or get ready for COR™
• Perform an internal IHSA COR™ audit
• Have an external IHSA COR™ audit performed, or
• Transition from COR™ 2015 to COR™2020
