Using Vector LiveSafe to Report Safe Concern in Manufacturing Facility
Industry:
Solution:
The Challenge
A manufacturing client recognized that its workplace was presenting hazards to production employees and they received a report of an injured worker receiving delayed aid due to lack of Medical Kit accessibility. This is dangerous and also violates OSHA's 1910.266 standard. They needed a way for workers to easily report safety threats or request help in case of injury.
The Choice
The client deployed the LiveSafe Mobile App so that workers could anonymously submit tips. They received over ten tips highlighting life-threatening safety concerns such as slip hazards, falling materials, and negligent equipment placement.
The Change
LiveSafe tip submissions informed the manufacturing client of production line safety concerns, helping them improve employee safety and prevent compliance regulation violations.
