EcoOnline Permit to Work (PTW) Software

Digitise high-risk work control. Improve safety. Reduce delays. Strengthen compliance.

EcoOnline’s Permit to Work Software is a modern, cloud-based digital solution that simplifies and controls high-risk work activities across your organisation. Instead of paper-based permits, spreadsheets and manual authorisations, EcoOnline provides a centralised, secure, traceable permit system that ensures only safe, authorised work is carried out.

As an EcoOnline Partner, SRM implements, configures and trains your team to use the PTW system effectively, integrating it into your operational controls, contractor management and ISO 45001 safety framework.

Whether you operate in manufacturing, engineering, mining, logistics, utilities or construction, EcoOnline PTW brings structure, visibility and confidence to high-risk operations.

What is a Permit to Work System?

A Permit to Work (PTW) is a formal written system used to control high-risk work such as:

Hot work
Work at height
Confined space entry
Electrical work
Lifting operations
Excavations
Hazardous energy isolation (LOTO)
Chemical handling
Work near live services

EcoOnline transforms the traditional PTW process into a fully digital workflow that ensures:

Clear authorisation
Proper risk assessment
Valid controls and isolations
Competent personnel
Contractor compliance
Real-time oversight
