Legal Register
Legislation changes quietly, and a missed update can turn into a legal risk before anyone notices. FlexManager's Legal Register module tracks every legal obligation by status — new, pending, impacted or closed — accounts for region-specific by-laws at each location, and reports on where your compliance position actually stands.
Keeping Pace With Legislation as It Actually Changes
Legal Register sits within FlexManager’s Quality Control suite. Rather than a static list of laws, it’s built to keep pace with legislation as it actually evolves because businesses need that resource in times of fast-moving change.
Built for Anyone Who Answers for Legal Compliance
The module supports Compliance Managers who own the legal register day to day, HSEQ Managers who need region-specific by-law coverage across multiple sites, and Operations Directors and Managing Directors who need visibility into the business’s legal risk exposure.
Legislative Update Tracking
Keep up to date with the latest legislation, and adapt your core documents to a new version as it changes, rather than working from an outdated regulatory baseline.
Status-Based Item Tracking
Track each legal item as new, pending, impacted or closed in one place, so you can see exactly where every obligation stands without chasing it down separately.
Compliance Status Reporting
Generate reports on legal compliance status, giving stakeholders a clear picture of where the business stands on its legal obligations rather than a general assurance with nothing behind it.
Region-Specific By-Law Coverage
Account for region-specific laws and regulations at every location, rather than applying one generic set of rules across sites that may sit under different local by-laws.
Proactive Legal Risk Identification
Identify and assess potential legal risks, so controls and strategies can be put in place before a liability becomes an actual problem for the business.
Centralised Legal Obligation Hub
Bring legal obligation tracking, status and compliance reporting into one centralised hub, rather than scattering it across separate documents, spreadsheets and inboxes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does FlexManager's Legal Register module do?
It tracks legal obligations and legislative changes in one centralised hub, showing the status of each item as new, pending, impacted or closed. It also accounts for region-specific by-laws at every location and reports on where your organisation’s compliance position actually stands, rather than leaving that judgement to guesswork.
How does the module keep up with changes in legislation?
Legal Register keeps up to date with the latest legislation and lets you adapt your core documents to a new version as it changes, so you’re working from a current regulatory baseline rather than one that’s quietly gone out of date.
Can I see the status of a specific legal obligation at a glance?
Yes. Each legal item is tracked as new, pending, impacted or closed in one place, so you can see exactly where a given obligation stands without having to chase the answer down separately across different documents.
Does the module account for laws that vary by location?
Yes. Region-specific laws and regulations are accounted for at every location, rather than applying one generic set of rules across sites that may actually sit under different local by-laws and jurisdictions.
Can I generate reports on our legal compliance status?
Yes. Reports can be generated on legal compliance status, giving stakeholders a clear picture of where the business stands on its legal obligations, rather than a general assurance with no supporting detail behind it at all.
How does Legal Register help manage legal risk?
It helps identify and assess potential legal risks, so controls and strategies can be put in place before a liability becomes an actual problem, rather than being addressed only after an issue has already arisen and escalated.
