Building A Safer Workplace With Administrative Automation

Creating a safer work environment is crucial for frontline workplaces—not just for protecting employees but also for managing operational costs like workers’ compensation premiums. At Transmission, we focus on practical, easy-to-implement strategies to help companies build safer workplaces. Here's how you can use our platform to make a real difference- one that improves the bottom line.

1. Onboarding Made Easy

When new employees, temps, or visitors arrive, they need proper training to navigate your facility safely. Our digital onboarding system walks them through essential safety videos, agreements, and quizzes using computer, kiosks or mobile devices. This ensures everyone gets the training they need, reducing the risk of accidents from untrained workers.

Tip: Regularly refresh this training to keep everyone up to date.

2. Ongoing Training for Everyone

Keeping workers informed with up-to-date safety training is essential. Our platform automates the scheduling and tracking of weekly, monthly or quarterly training sessions. This way, you can be confident that every worker—full-time or temporary—completes and understands their safety training, which helps prevent incidents.

Tip: Automate notifications to remind workers of upcoming training sessions.

3. Weekly Safety Meetings

Regular communication is key. Transmission helps organize and document weekly safety meetings, ensuring employees engage with safety topics relevant to their roles. This reinforces a culture where safety is always top of mind.

Tip: Document attendance and participation to build a track record of safety engagement.

4. Easy Incident Reporting

Identifying hazards before they cause accidents is vital. Our platform makes it simple for workers to report near misses and incidents. We track these reports and make sure follow-ups happen, reducing the likelihood of repeated issues.

Tip: Encourage all employees to report issues, so you have a clear picture of potential risks.

5. Empower Workers to Report Safety Concerns

When workers can voice safety concerns easily, they become active participants in creating a safer workplace. Our system supports anonymous reporting, allowing employees to share feedback on anything from facility operations to safety behaviors without fear of retaliation.

Tip: Regularly review these reports to identify trends and take proactive action.

6. Quick Emergency Communications

During emergencies, quick and clear communication can make all the difference. With our platform’s integration of text messages, digital signage, and kiosks, you can instantly alert all employees, provide evacuation instructions, or relay other critical information.

Tip: Test your emergency communication system regularly to ensure it’s ready when needed.

The Benefits: Lower Premiums and a Safer Workplace 

Implementing these steps not only helps reduce accidents and injuries but also positions your facility for reduced workers’ comp premiums. Insurance providers value proactive safety measures, and by documenting your safety protocols with Transmission, you show your programmatic approach to keeping everyone safe.

By making safety a priority and using the right tools to maintain it, you’ll not only build a safer environment but also save on operational costs.
