Assign Health and Safety Manager Roles

-
In the User Accounts tab, search the user that you want to assign the role.

Click the role to open the role details.
-
Click Edit and then Add Role.
-
In the Add Role Membership window, search for the role.

For safety inspections, follow these steps to assign the Environment, Health, and Safety Manager role to the user.
-
Open the Security Console by clicking Navigator > Tools > Security Console.
-
In the Roles tab, search the role and click Edit Role
-
In the Edit Role page, click Enable Permission Groups.

A best practice would be to limit the roles above to a small number of users and create a Safety Coordinator custom role to manage incident or inspection records for a specific department, business unit, line of business, or region. You can define the scope accordingly.
A person assigned the Safety Coordinator role has full access to all aspects, including incident events, investigations, and actions. To act as a Safety Coordinator, the individual must have the HNS_REVIEW_ENVIRONMENT_HEALTH_AND_SAFETY_INCIDENT_PRIV privilege. Additionally, to access a specific incident or inspection record, the person must be assigned to that record. This requirement applies to anyone, whether they are the incident owner or action approver. Access to a record is contingent on having the appropriate privileges and being assigned to the record. These two conditions do not apply to users with the roles mentioned above. There's no limit on the number of safety coordinators that can be assigned to an incident or inspection.
Configuring Lookup Types
You can modify lookups that have the configuration level set to User or Extensible.
-
In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to:
-
Offering: Workforce Deployment
-
Functional Area: Workforce Health and Safety Incidents
-
Task: Manage Environment, Health and Safety Configuration Settings
-
-
On the Manage Environment, Health and Safety Configuration Settings page, search for the ORA_HNS lookup types. The default lookup types and their descriptions are available.
-
Update the lookup types as necessary.Note: Changing a lookup for either safety incidents or safety inspections will effect the lookup values in the other application.
Configuring Profile Options
You can use these profile options to control how the application operates. To change any profile option value, search for and select the Manage Administrator Profile Values task. In the Application field, select Workforce Health and Safety Incidents and search for the relevant profile option.
