the world’s number one business priority and its Safely Back to Business initiative. Instead of physical monitoring of environmental conditions, and manually inputting results in a physical or digital form, SafetyCulture’s sensors enable workers to connect the sensors and data feeds through the iAuditor app to; monitor conditions like temperature and humidity levels in real-time and be alerted when things go out of range and respond instantly. Similarly, the launch of Incidents allows team


members to capture anything that raises concern in the mind of the worker, such as property damage and personal injury. Teams are empowered to be proactive in identifying and resolving risk and becoming active players in protecting people and property.


CONNECTINGINDUSTRY.COM/IRISHMANUFACTURING For the last 14 years, SafetyCulture has led the market


in mobile-first safety, quality and operational inspections. Its Chief Operating Officer, Alistair Venn, is confident these latest launches will not only support businesses with safety but also their growth: “We started work on these new products long before


COVID-19. We knew that giving our customers a clearer profile of their organisations would give them the ability to get ahead of problems and their competitors. The top down compliance model is broken. We’re giving teams the tools to communicate more fluidly so they’re agile and ever-ready to react.”
