QTRACA: Giving you confidence in training and compliance

QTRACA:

GIVING YOU CONFIDENCE IN TRAINING AND COMPLIANCE

When Mike Cook started QTRACA as a food safety application for food producers, he didn’t realise the benefit the QTRACA training module would have for growers that employ a seasonal or casual workforce.

The innovative cloud-based application from QTRACA allows growers to enter the names and emails of potential workers into the system and then invite them to fill in custom application forms. This information along with supporting evidence such as work visas and driver’s licences, can all be reviewed once submitted by an applicant. Results can be filtered so you can easily find people with the required skills, and then once selected, names can be exported with the required detail for import into your payroll or other systems. The amount of time this saves employers sorting through paperwork is considerable, and once in the system workers can be switched from active to inactive as the seasons change. Applicants that are selected can then be trained using the same portal, which allows them to complete induction, training quizzes, or review standard operating procedures all from their mobile devices.

For a lot of workers, English is not their first language. For growers that have a large non-English-speaking workforce, no problem, you can create forms and training in any language you like. Being able to distribute training in the required language means higher comprehension by staff, and so the likelihood of mistakes is reduced dramatically. Allowing staff access to digital forms, such as maintenance requests, allows you to analyse data immediately, be alerted when data is out of spec, notify users of certain events, and analyse trends in data. Risk is not only reduced by having records stored securely online, unaffected by events such as flooding and fire which can damage or destroy manual records, but by data being received exactly when something happens so it can be rectified immediately. In addition to staff training and induction, QTRACA is packed full of features to help manage food safety and meet compliance. Automating recording of temperatures or other environmental monitoring is simple with QTRACA. Temperature readings can be taken in real-time and can alert users when a reading is out of spec, giving you confidence that your product will be the best quality, and not wasted due to environmental issues.

Complaints can be managed and analysed seamlessly within QTRACA. Non-conformances can be created from complaints if required, and then actioned via corrective or preventative responses. One of the biggest benefits of QTRACA is being able to gain visibility into your business from anywhere, at any time. This enables you to be proactive, discovering issues before they become costly mistakes. Get in touch now to find out how simple and affordable it can be to switch to a paperless environment today.
