Traditionally, the great unifier in for all of these concerns was efficient reporting and insight management undertaken from EHS data reported and aggregated. But in a world where manufacturing, production and services have become independent of time and geography – software automation has succeeded and even superseded them in some cases.
Improving EHS performance is emerging as a mission-critical mandate in industries as the focus on adapting EHS tools is increasing. Industries today find it imperative to move beyond the traditional EHS data reporting systems. As the recent technology trends have allowed us to collect high-quality data and perform advanced analysis.
Health and safety which was largely limited to be an organizational pursuit has shifted its focus to people-centric technologies now. Whether it is incident management or maintenance of vendor-contractor-supplier data. The future role of data within environmental, occupational, health and safety will be defined under three distinct heads
