Unsafe workplace can bring financial burdens and time demands on the organizations. Workplace Safety Revolution Inc. provides consulting services that help employers in various industries invest in injury prevention strategies, Occupational Health and Safety, Employment Standards Act and Employment Law compliance. They are providing their services through an online software- ACTIVE OH&S. With Durham College, they now wish to develop a client portal-Safety By the BookTM (SBTB). Safety By the BookTM will offer print and online resources that are designed to reinforce due diligence by supporting individuals during the execution of their OH&S Responsibilities. These resources are not meant to be a replacement to adequate training or a defensible safety program, they are meant to supplement training by reinforcing company policies, industry best practices and by facilitating the collecting of evidence to support due diligence and proper job and emergency response planning. The products and services of SBTB will provide cost effective, efficient and more customized solutions to help businesses establish compliance and due diligence quicker and easier than anything else available in the market today. Once Safety By The BookTM is launched; it will positively impact the growth of the company thus creating jobs in the technology field through the hiring of support personnel to manage the new business.
