Frequently asked questions about corrective and preventive action management
What is CAPA software for EHS teams?
Corrective and preventive action (CAPA) software helps EHS teams assign, track, and document actions taken in response to safety and compliance issues. EHS Hero keeps tasks, deadlines, reminders, and action history in one place.
What is the difference between a corrective action and a preventive action?
A corrective action addresses an identified problem and its cause. A preventive action addresses a potential problem before it occurs. EHS Hero helps teams manage and track both types of action.
How does EHS Hero help keep corrective actions on schedule?
Teams can assign actions to employees, set deadlines, and send reminders when actions are due. A centralized view of progress helps managers identify work that still needs attention.
Can CAPA tasks be assigned across multiple sites or departments?
Yes. EHS Hero supports individual, group, and mass task assignments, making it easier to coordinate actions across departments and locations.
Can teams prioritize and filter corrective actions?
Yes. Custom priorities, categories, tags, and filters help teams organize actions and find the issues that need attention first.
Does EHS Hero keep a history of corrective actions?
Yes. The CAPA tool tracks action progress and provides a record of updates and changes. Teams can refer to that history when reviewing prior actions or preparing for an audit.
How does CAPA connect with incident investigations and audits?
Findings from incident investigations and audits and inspections can lead to corrective or preventive actions. EHS Hero’s CAPA tool gives teams a shared place to assign those actions and track follow-up.
Can EHS Hero help document actions for ISO audits?
EHS Hero provides a systematic way to assign, track, and retain a history of actions addressing nonconformities. That documentation can support an ISO audit, while meeting a particular standard depends on the organization’s processes and the standard’s requirements.
