AI draft from the data sheet
Hazards, protective measures, emergency procedures, first aid and disposal are prepared from the safety data sheet.
Operating instructions
The valid version of every operating instruction – at every workstation
Operating instructions must be clear, specific to the workstation and up to date. EHS Go helps you write them, manages approval and ensures employees always see the current version.
In practice
Instructions right at the machine
At the milling machine, the press or the paint booth, the valid operating instruction belongs at the workstation. In EHS Go it is linked to the machine and available in the app – and when a new version is released, it is clear who needs refresher training.
01Features
What the module does
Consistent structure
All instructions follow the same layout, which makes them easier to read and to train with.
Documented approval
Drafts are reviewed and approved; the date and approver are recorded.
Versioning
Every change creates a new version, and earlier versions remain archived.
Assigned to areas and sites
Filter instructions by department, site, substance or machine.
Mobile at the workstation
Employees find the valid instruction in the app – via search or directly from the equipment.

03Legal basis
Regulatory context
In Germany, written operating instructions (Betriebsanweisungen) are mandatory for work with hazardous substances (section 14 GefStoffV, structured according to TRGS 555), for work equipment with specific hazards (section 12 BetrSichV) and for biological agents (section 14 BioStoffV). They are the basis for employee training. Comparable written safe-work instructions are expected under ISO 45001 operational control (clause 8.1).
Key regulations
- GefStoffV § 14
- TRGS 555
- BetrSichV § 12
- BioStoffV § 14
- ISO 45001, clause 8.1

05Questions and answers
Frequently asked questions
Which operating instructions does a business need?
For work with hazardous substances, for work equipment with specific hazards – such as machinery or forklift trucks – and for work with biological agents. The risk assessment determines which ones are required in detail.
Which languages are supported?
German and English. Further languages for employees with a different first language are available on request.
Can we use our own templates?
Yes. You can use your own texts and templates or import existing operating instructions.
What happens when a safety data sheet changes?
The instruction is linked to the substance. You revise the draft, approve the new version and schedule refresher training; the previous version remains archived.
