Access can be based on individual’s competencies such as safety induction and training, security clearances and regulatory compliance. Validity periods and competency expiry can be factored into the access decision.
The benefits of competency-based access management are:
• Automatic enforcement of business OH&S rules and policies
• Reduction in production stoppages due to non-compliant staff being in the wrong areas
• Tangible evidence of ‘duty of care’ to staff and customers
• Automatic compliance with government regulations.
Controller based decisions based on an individual’s competency are delivered via screen feedback on the door reader or display monitor. Once configured, all of this is achieved independent of Server and IT Network connectivity.
