Safety health and environment, within the shell of industries and trade, lies in the throes of operations, maintenance and the labour of managing workplace expectations. While Vision Zero talks to us from the position of authority to manage and mitigate risks for preventing incidents. Yet, India according to latest figures, retains its position among the countries.

EHS challenges to life and livelihoods especially in hazardous sectors i.e. oil and gas, chemicals and construction demands elevated role of safety. The risk present to the frontline workers can sometimes outstrip the behavioural classroom trainings – flexibility from a ‘situational safety standpoint’ is undermined.

Technology adoption rate and usage are driven by inherent behaviours and biases that limit its potential. Simply, mandating usage of a technology or software tool doesn’t understand or eliminate these biases or behavioural hurdles. A well thought and researched user-journey towards nudging them into exploring a “better tool” has to be conceived and delivered.

Digital EHS solutions offer support for incident management as the first line of defence. Further, digitized hazard reporting app and behaviour based safety(BBS) app stand to nudge the workforce towards ‘safe’ behaviour and practices. Digital EHS solutions for sustainability offer a rainbow of parameter monitoring options.

Data comes to our rescue in many such instances and although we like to think of data as a great enabler, the final results can be a lot different. Data culture is a part of the equation that can go unnoticed and unrecognized in safety. Precision systems with accurate data analytics honed by trained EHS data scientists and experts.

On the industrial scale, hacking is a heinous crime that can endanger lives and mechanized assets. The likes of which were seen in far regions of Ukraine where whole cities went without power due to hacked power generation stations which were shutdown remotely.This is the extraneous challenges– solved by proactive network security
