THEME: DANGEROUS SUBSTANCES
Any liquid, gas or solid that poses a risk to workers’ health or safety, can be found in nearly all workplaces.
Dealing with Dangerous Substances at the workplace should be a top priority for every company with a high-risk work environment. That is why we introduce this THEME and provide some tools for achieving this goal.
What are Dangerous Substances? Simple solutions
HSElife NL is an online all-in-one Health, Safety, Environment and Quality MANAGEMENT SYSTEM incorporating interactive learning, certification, communication and registrationIMPORTANT AND USABLE FOR ANY HIGH-RISK WORK ENVIRONMENT... IN ANY INDUSTRY... EVERYWHERE!
Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their simplification. Martin H. Fischer (famous physician and author) hit the right spot with this one - it is also a philosophy that describes the essence of HSElife NL Management System. In an everchanging inudstrial landscape, we are prone to gather knowledge on a scale never seen before. It's how we provide the content and functionality to the user that separates us from others.
SAFE, SUPPORTING and READY-TO-USE are just a few words that come to mind when talking about the HSEQ platform which is a result of more than 25 years of close cooperation with first-line workers and their companies in general. What does that mean for you and your company? It means that you can effortlessly introduce this sophisticated system within a matter of minutes and start preventing exposure to Dangerous Substances.
Let us introduce just a few of the many TOOLS & SERVICES of HSElife NL which will assist you in that.
