As more utilities pursue digital transformation, an essential aspect of operations often gets overlooked: safety. During fieldwork for maintenance, repairs and outage recovery, the safety of utility employees, contractors and the public is always the top priority. However, the unpredictable—and even dangerous—environment where utility assets are located can make it challenging for personnel and contractors to consistently follow best practices and coordinate effectively on safety, especially in fast-evolving situations where communication is limited.

Advanced, mobile-friendly platforms can streamline and automate how utilities collect and use safety information. In this playbook, you’ll learn how a safety management solution that supports apps, communications, checklists, documentation and more can benefit your utility by:

• Increasing labor efficiency and employee satisfaction
• Saving time and money
• Improving accuracy
• Simplifying mandatory reporting
• Improving safety
