摘要

The management of Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) protection has an important role both in services and in product companies. The management the HSE means to manage ad-hoc business processes. It is important to manage HSE business processes like the others operating business processes related to its core business. There are several factors of complexity in the management of HSE: ⅰ) there are many laws about HSE and often it is very difficult to keep under control; ⅱ) the business processes that manage the core business of the company are very close to the HSE business processes thus it is difficult to manage correctly every aspects; ⅲ) the information systems that manage the HSE are focused on administrative aspect and not the functional and operating ones. In this paper, we describe the architecture useful to design and to manage correctly HSE business process. The proposed architecture allows both to have a complete management of the HSE (and not only of the bureaucratic aspect) and to have through the use of knowledge base, a direct link with the description of the law and of the company.
