Facility management : if safety is a primary concern of a facility, it can be seen immediately from the plant’s production efficiency. Safe establishments feature fewer workplace accidents and a higher productivity rate. When all assets and processes are set up to function according to all required regulations and operators know how to deal with potential safety hazards, workers’ injuries and illnesses, the associated additional cost gets minimized.
Facility Management : CMMS Can Help You Inspect Facility Security
The best way to establish an effective health and safety program is to standardize all processes and procedures in your next-gen maintenance management software.

Maintenance Management Software Can Improve Safety
1. Create and Update Safety Checklists
Ensuring that all assets are in proper working order is essential for safe operations. Routine safety checklists can be directly implemented in the facility management software, followed and if necessarily updated with every scheduled or unscheduled maintenance intervention. Following the established safety rules goes a long way to ensuring operator safety.
An operator should be given the option to record and make visible to the rest of the team all unsafe components encountered during an intervention as worn loose bolts, improper pressure, faulty wiring, etc. Equipment should be categorized and critical components should be checked through safety checklists on a daily basis since a piece of equipment that worked fine yesterday might not be working today.
Access all documents (photos, videos, etc.) and checklists from the equipment sheet in your Mobility Work application
2. Keep Track of Asset Location
All facility plans and maps should be uploaded to your facility management software, stored securely and consulted every time when an asset should be removed, replaced or relocated. When the replacement of equipment is properly planned, the risk for accidents and injuries is significantly minimized.
3. Inform Employees about Paying Attention to Their Personal Protection
The newsfeed and the social aspect of Mobility Work can be used as main tools to create and spread a culture of safety within the facility. Safety pictures, videos and tutorials can be uploaded and shared among technicians in the field. The platform can be used to schedule and organize safety trainings and drills.
Furthermore, you can directly connect your machines to the maintenance management software, receive critical warnings and perform maintenance accordingly. Reminders, posters and alarms can also be set up to follow up the establishment of the safety routines.
4. Control the Use of Chemicals or Any Other Hazardous Substances
A facility management software will allow you to control the flow of hazardous substances within the facility. From their purchase through their usage and disposal, every step of this process can be critical and every person involved should be properly trained and certified. A list with all employees authorized to perform a certain critical activity can be stored and regularly updated in the facility management software.
5. Follow up on the Training and Certifications of Every Employee
Personal employee safety records can be controlled by the HR manager and can be used to comply with occupational health and safety regulations and standards. This also enables maintenance managers to work closely with the HR department and define what skills already exist and what skills need to be acquired by the team.
6. Define the Criticality of a Task
Prioritizing assets can help you keep a track on performed critical interventions and equipment history more easily, including staff involved, time taken for completion, conditions or issues encountered at any stage, etc.
An asset management software can be used as well for a deeper historical tracking (for audits for example) of safety compliance by taking into account reports, graphs or dashboards delivering information for a given time period on a certain safety procedure performed on a piece of equipment.
7. Follow Up on All Obligatory Safety and Compliance Regulations
Every facility has to follow the compliance requirements and/or regulations of the industry in which it operates. Mobility Work will manage and streamline all your maintenance interventions in order to establish an all-round maintenance program.
8. Establish Safety Track Records
A next-gen CMMS allows you to create detailed historical records, dashboards and graphs of all safety tasks to ease the identification of recurring problems and anticipate issues in the future.
All news related to ongoing interventions are available from Mobility Work mobile application’s newsfeed, available on iOS and Android.
