Workplace safety app for SMEs
Systems on a Shoestring (SOAS) has launched a workplace safety mobile app. The Simple Safety app is a step-by-step system developed to help businesses become compliant with work health and safety legislation while on the go.
With over 2000 pages of legislation, many business owners spend a majority of their time concentrating on meeting the red-tape regulatory requirements rather than focusing on providing a safe work environment.
To combat the issue, the director of SOAS, Emma Bentton, developed the app to give business owners the confidence to identify the hazards in their workplace and implement adequate controls to manage these risks.
The app is tailored to the 2 million plus SMEs operating in Australia and is designed to give business owners more time to focus on the running of their business.
