It’s clear from the most recent HSE statistics that current approaches to workplace health and safety appear to be falling short. A new Hand Arm Vibration case being reported every working day should be proof enough.
It is clear evidence that relying exclusively on periodic risk assessments is not a strong strategy when it comes to protecting workers from known threats to their wellbeing. Averages and estimates from third-parties, manufacturers or on line libraries may give you some comfort but, in the real world they are difficult to implement and they can only go so far toward helping you manage and monitor the actual risks in a dynamic and fast-paced workplace environment.
In order to realistically protect your workforce from potentially life changing workplace risks, and to protect your organisation from the escalating costs associated with injuries, ill-health and litigation, you should consider an approach that goes well beyond not just guesswork, but beyond compliance which should really be your absolute minimal standard. A comprehensive and effective health and safety strategy will give you the tools, data and direction that you need to actually create a safer and healthier working environment.
We have the most modern solution that makes it easy for you to access accurate and reliable information about the actual risks facing your teams, including issues of tool condition, behavioural traits, consumable suitability, correct tool use, recordable actions and a whole host of other data. With this insight, you can take confident action to refine or improve controls to better protect your workers’ health safety, and ultimately work more efficiently, safely plus, employee’s and the bottom line looking healthier.
