A responsible person is someone within the business that would be responsible for investigating injuries/illness and / or reporting them to the Enforcing Authorities.

Responsible persons are able to access injury/illness records once they have been submitted. They also receive notification when an injury/illness record is submitted, so they are aware of all injury/illness that happen.

If you go to the employees section and click the three dots next to the employees name then you will have a tickbox to set this employee as a responsible person. They will need to have Admin or user access in order to be set as a responsible person.

Add the employee into BrightHR and then on the next log in to BrightSafe, their information will be synced to BrightSafe.

Go to the Employees tab, click the three dots next to the name of the user you’ll like to make an admin and change their role in the box that is displayed. Click save to confirm.

The next time that user logs in they will have admin access.

Admins hold all the power. They can access all areas within BrightSafe and grant access to other users.

Users can do most things within BrightSafe, apart from grant access to other users and view other user’s tasks.
