*SOHELP : Systematic Occupational Safety and Health Enhancement Level Programme

*DOSH : Department of Occupational Safety and Health


Background: SOHELP is an initiative by DOSH that was designed to aid compliance to legislative requirements focusing on occupational health in the work environment pertaining to chemical, ergonomics and noise. The participants of this programme are required to fill-up checkpoint forms which later be verified by DOSH.

An idea was realised through the development of this app, for making SOHLEP easier for users facing difficulty and tediousness of carrying out SOHELP requirements. Thus, having an app for this task can improve the usability of SOHELP DIY.

This app is part of an academic research to study the usability of this app with human/user factors, carried out under the Department of Environmental and Occupational Health, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences of Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM).
