Advancements in gas detection technology have made devices smarter, with many now providing usage data and insights that can be leveraged to help drive safety further. Understanding this gas detector fleet and field worker data is becoming increasingly important for managing a successful modern safety program. But the amount of tools and data available — and what to do with it — may seem overwhelming.
There are three basic components to a modern gas detection program:
- Behaviors
- Tools
- Data
When behaviors, tools, and data work together harmoniously, they create a balanced cycle that becomes a feedback loop and a constant source of improvement, impacting areas such as worker safety, productivity, and bottom-line outcomes.
Failure to properly leverage device capabilities and data may result in what would be considered an “imbalanced cycle,” where device maintenance and data and insights are not properly addressed, leading safety managers to take fewer actions and focus less on worker training.
Download this white paper to learn more about the components of a modern safety program, differences between a balanced cycle vs. an imbalanced cycle, and 5 simple steps to using fleet data to help enhance gas detection programs.
