How to implement a solution at your company
Steps for employers, from choosing a solution to launch.
- 1
Choose an area
Define the task: reduce risks at a site, move briefings online, issue permits-to-work electronically and so on. Find the matching section of the catalogue above.
- 2
Review the features
Open “Features” on a card and compare the solutions in the section. Check the industry: some solutions are designed for mines.
- 3
Contact the developer
Use the link or email on the card. Ask solution providers for a presentation, a demo and terms. Companies marked “Company practice” can be asked to share their implementation experience.
- 4
Check compatibility
Find out whether you need equipment (cameras, sensors, smartphones) and whether the solution connects to your existing systems: CCTV, HR records, reporting.
- 5
Run a pilot
Start with one workshop or site and assess the results after 1–3 months: violations detected, time to fix them, time saved.
- 6
Train your staff
Train users and set out the procedure for using the system in your internal occupational safety documents.
