Workplace safety: one screen instead of six, and the matrix almost nobody shows

Registering a company no longer takes six steps: the obligations sit alongside and update as you type. Plus a people × courses matrix, a twelve-month expiry strip and a score that opens and shows what it is made of

TL;DR

Company registration on a single screen with obligations updating on every keystroke; a people × courses matrix; a twelve-month expiry strip; a score that opens and shows its weights. Plus the employer training course, which was missing.

Six steps were five too many

The registration form asked for six screens, and the picture of obligations — who becomes mandatory, how many training hours, which document areas switch on — appeared only at the end. That is the wrong moment: by the time you discover that the number of workers decides who may act as prevention head, that number was entered four screens ago and fixing it means going back. Now the fields are on the left and the picture on the right, fixed while you scroll, updating on every keystroke.

The matrix is the view missing everywhere

People as rows, courses as columns, and in the cell the months left before expiry. A list of certificates answers «when does this one expire»; only the matrix answers «who has never done anything», which is the question that bites under inspection — an expired certificate is visible, one that was never obtained is not. It is the table every prevention head draws by hand on paper before a meeting.

  • The twelve-month strip: twelve columns, height means how many expiries fall in that month, overdue in red. A list by date says what expires first, not where the work piles up.
  • The company map, sorted by lowest score: the first one you read is the one in worst shape.
  • The score opens and shows its four groups with their weights: roles 35, training 35, documents 20, profile 10.

What the score does not say

It does not say «compliant», and it never will: it says how many items are covered out of those due. Compliance is a verdict for whoever signs. And with a blocking item open — a mandatory role that is vacant, an expired certificate — the score stays below sixty even if everything else is fine: a well-filled profile does not offset a missing prevention head.

The same work brought in the employer training course introduced by Italy's State-Regions Agreement of 17 April 2025. Previously the «employer» role was wired to the Art. 34 course, which is a different thing: an employer who is not also the prevention head appeared in no training gap despite holding a duty with a precise deadline.

The Solo plan drops to EUR 9.99 a month, and it is not a promotion

The Solo plan is for those starting out: three clients, one user, all the document areas, the Art. 30 register, breach handling with the 72-hour deadline. At nineteen euros it was an expense to weigh up; at EUR 9.99 it is a decision you take in a minute. The change is to the list price, not to a discount code: whoever signs up today pays this, and will still pay it in six months.

The Italian matrix reaches 205 rules: healthcare, anti-money-laundering and five sectors

Italy had 155 of its own retention rules against Portugal's 232, and the gap was not evenly spread: it sat in seven domains. Healthcare had 6 against 23, anti-money-laundering 4 against 13. Italy is now at 205 and the structural gap is closed. But the number matters less than the method: every new rule starts unverified, and it shows.

Risk is assessed inside the register, and every feature is one word away

A DPO tried the platform for a few days and wrote that the breach register, the risk assessment, document upload and pricing were all missing. Three of the four were already there. She did not find them because they sit inside the client's file, and the menu does not show them. Hence two additions: the risk assessment, which really was missing from the register, and a search bar that answers «breach», «72 hours», «Art. 33» and tells you where the thing you are looking for lives.
