    28 June 2024

       

    In today’s modern work environment, technology enables the capture and delivery of information where and when needed to engage employees in EHS&S improvement. This guarantees that all team members are informed about updated protocols, policies and learning resources.

    Below, let's explore the top 5 ways technology can boost EHS&S performance in the workplace.   

    1. Engages your workforce

    Practice two-way communication, ensuring everyone is focused on environment, health and safety risks and up to date on new procedures, guidelines and training materials.

    2. Simplifies assessments and drives accountability

    Actively monitor environmental impact activities and the safety and well-being of workers on a day-to-day basis, whether on-site or working remotely. Drive accountability for tasks that need to be undertaken, ensuring you have the agility to fix any issues quickly.

    3. Assesses effectiveness

    Collect and analyze operational, environment, health, safety and sustainability data to proactively reduce risk and improve your EHS&S performance and better decision-making. 

    4. Manages change

    Control the impact of change on your workers and productivity by ensuring safer and more efficient changes to processes, people and equipment. Ensure business continuity through swift and transparent communication of compliance changes to remote and on-site workers.

    5. Streamlines processes for all stakeholders

    Ensure workers are aware of existing procedures and protocols for maintaining EHS&S performance.
