How the Employee Safety Manager (ESM) takes your worries out of your hands
How the Employee Safety Manager (ESM) takes your worries out of your hands
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is often unavoidable in various sectors, despite the application of the occupational hygiene strategy. After conducting a thorough Risk Inventory & Evaluation (RI&E) in the vast majority of companies in construction, (petro-) chemicals, manufacturing, etc. the risks cannot be completely eliminated without the use of PPE.
You therefore offer your employees the most suitable PPE on the basis of the RI&E, but it doesn’t stop there.
Offering PPE to your employees is one thing, but the timely maintenance and replacement of PPE is crucial. The consequences of wearing PPE that no longer complies with the standards, is worn out or no longer fits, can damage the safety of your employees and make you liable for not providing compliant PPE.
Intersafe has the ideal solution
Intersafe is happy to think along with you about this. As said, providing your employees with PPE is a good start, but maintaining and timely replacing PPE is very crucial to keep your employees safe at work.
To ensure safety and prevent accidents, Intersafe has developed its Employee Safety Manager (ESM). The Employee Safety Manager is an online registration and ordering system that registers on an individual level which PPE is purchased, when it needs to be replaced and the budget the individual employee has to spend.
