Safety technology can be used to help #KeepEachOtherSafe by mitigating or even eliminating workplace hazards, but its implementation has not been widely adopted. To better understand the state of safety innovation in the workplace, the #WorkToZero initiative commissioned a survey involving employees and employers from a variety of industries. Access the new survey report here, https://lnkd.in/gdE3JVRq, and join us for a webinar on July 18 to learn more about the survey findings and insights into the most common safety hazards, technology utilization, and barriers to adoption.
