Ways Compliance Tech is Ensuring Field Service Workers' Safety

Enterprise asset management (EAM) technology is responding to this call by providing solutions to strengthen compliance, ranging from technician certification to equipment maintenance. Compliance platforms can provide greater visibility into job safety throughout the organization by approaching safety from multiple angles.

Fremont, CA: Predictive and proactive equipment maintenance is a priority for many field service providers today and with good reason. Equipment failure and machinery issues are of the ten most common sources of OSHA violations.

Organizations realize that fines represent only a fraction of the potential losses posed by unsafe equipment or working conditions. These liabilities can lead to significant financial costs associated with the personal injury or death of a worker and can weaken employee morale.

The knowledge that neglected machines and equipment increase risk doesn't make it any easier to organize and follow a predictive and preventive maintenance program. A large organization, however, may use hundreds or thousands of machines and pieces of equipment, each requiring regular upkeep, replacement of wear components, performance testing, repair, and eventual replacement.
