Too often, safety solutions are selected based on urgency, compliance pressure, or feature lists - rather than long-term effectiveness. How do you ensure you choose the right one and how do you set up effective, data-driven trials to get it right?

On Feb. 25, EHS IT Systems expert Arianna Howard from Syncra Group, and workforce safety expert Ryan Obsuszt from OK Alone will guide you through the evolving landscape of employee safety technology in a free webinar.

Together, they’ll walk through how to assess organizational readiness, define real employee safety risks, and avoid common pitfalls that lead to poor adoption or stalled pilots.

This session is designed to give you clear, actionable guidance you can apply immediately—whether you're introducing new employee safety technology or reassessing an existing system.
