Risk information exchange

Before an outside worker sets foot on site, the site owner and the contractor must exchange the risk information each activity generates.

Content reviewed on

Information from the site owner

Site-specific risks that could affect workers from contractor companies, plus the emergency measures in place.

Information from the contractor

Risks generated by its own activity that could affect other workers present at the site.

When the exchange gets repeated

Every time a relevant change in risks occurs, not just at the start of the relationship.

What an auditor usually asks for

  • Record of the initial risk exchange between companies
  • Site emergency measures communicated to the contractor
  • Exchange updated whenever risks change materially
  • Signed acknowledgment of receipt of the information

How to cover the information exchange in Kimobox

  1. 1Onboard each supplier into the CAE Portal with its risk profile.
  2. 2Publish the site's emergency measures so every contractor can see them.
  3. 3Log every risk update with a date and an electronic signature.

The information exchange stays signed and dated, not buried in a lost email.
