Creating a safe workplace for your workforce, as mandated by the United States Department of Labor through Occupational Safety and Health Administration in 1970, can help prevent work-related injury and death, especially in high-risk industries.

Safety management is about being proactive in the prevention of incidents. To be able to predict events and accidents at all times is humanly impossible. Automation can enable this to a large extent through a focused approach to improving safety outcomes and promoting organizational and operational excellence. An automated safety management system is also an FDA requirement since 2018. It empowers businesses with better risk assessment capabilities and helps schedule periodic audits while improving the company’s safety and quality processes.
