If you asked your employees to empty their pockets, how many of them
would pull out a safety manual? Now how about a smart phone? With so many
people now using mobile devices, it’s no surprise that more and more companies are
utilizing mobile technology to enhance their operations, especially in regard
to safety management and reporting.
Mobile Safety Apps
There are already a variety of mobile applications on the market to assist
companies with safety management and reporting, from Cargo Decoder – which lets
workers know what’s in a truck or tanker using special codes – to NIOSH Pocket
Guide to Chemical Hazards – an app that provides safety personnel with critical
information on 677 hazardous chemicals.
Even OSHA has jumped on the mobile bandwagon by developing its OSHA Heat Safety
Tool,
a smart phone application for the Android, Blackberry and iPhone, designed to
help companies protect their workers from heat-related illnesses. Using the
mobile app, users can:
- calculate the heat index for their worksite
- get reminders about protective measures to avoid heat-related illness
- receive training on heat illness signs and symptoms
Mobile Management
Systems
Want to make mobile an even bigger part of your safety program?
Consider implementing an electronic safety management system, such as ENDURE’s Safety Incident Management System (SIMS™) option. SIMS
will store your records digitally and can be accessed by employees as a mobile
app, allowing your safety managers to retrieve or input critical safety info on
the go.
Ask Endure How SIMS™ can work for your ORGANIZATION!
