How to Error-Proof Your Permit-to-Work Program

When

3/28/24 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm CDT

Event Description

Preventing workplace fatalities requires organizations to zero in on high-risk tasks where the absence of control may significantly increase a worker’s exposure to high energy – whether that be a fall from height or contact with electricity.

But although many businesses rely heavily on permit-to-work systems to detect and mitigate those potentially deadly exposures, we often find on closer examination that these systems aren’t as robust and reliable as we’d like to believe. So, what are the common issues that undermine the reliability of our PTW systems, and what can we do to address these gaps?

We invite you to join Cority’s Sean Baldry, CRSP, as he explores the common challenges organizations face when managing a PTW program, and how firms around the world are leveraging technology – and specifically software – to increase PTW process reliability, boost program accountability and protect their workforce from the worst outcome imaginable.

During this session, you’ll learn:

  • The five most common issues that erode PTW program compliance and system effectiveness.
  • How to design a PTW program to create maximum value for your business.
  • How to integrate software applications into your PTW process to realize better compliance and performance accountability.
  • What to consider when choosing a PTW software partner.
