The Legal Foundations tool provides a user a list of regulations within Enhesa's Environment Health and Safety scope that are in force within a specific jurisdiction, and include statutes, acts, orders, decrees, etc.
The purpose of the Foundations is to compile a database of legislation relevant to assess/ensure compliance. It enables the source-checking of the requirements in compliance intelligence, as each requirement must be linked to the regulation(s) establishing that particular requirement.
The Legal Foundations can be found on your Enhesa website under the “Legal Foundations” tab. Here, the client can click on a Foundation name to view further information.
