TrueNorth Steel is a prominent steel products supplier and manufacturer with more than 75 years of experience going above and beyond for their customers. TrueNorth Steel is head quartered in North Dakota employing 800 employees with plants across multiple states in the United States.
TrueNorth Steel faced challenges that affected its operations. The company struggled with lack of good, accurate data on safety incidents, making it hard to report and analyze safety issues. Organizing and analysing the data took a lot of time and effort that fell on a safety team that was under staffed.
Additionally, the safety department wanted to consolidate all their safety needs including SDS database under one system. Having one primary system for incident reporting, audit tracking, OSHA reporting, SDS file management and accessibility, and other safety tracking requirements facilitated eliminating the need for having multiple programs.
In response, SafetyIQ was able to help TrueNorth Steel by implementing key modules to improve its safety data management:
Incident Report Management system was introduced to streamline the recording and tracking of safety incidents.
The Safety Observations module was set up to facilitate the regular monitoring and reporting of potential hazards.
Audits and Inspections tools were introduced to to ensure consistent adherence to safety protocols and standards.
An enhanced Safety Data Sheet Management system was rolled out to provide easy access to essential safety information, making it simpler for the team to manage.
These strategic implementations aimed to refine data handling and elevate the user experience within the company’s safety operations.
Established a Strategic Sponsor, set clear agendas and outcomes for each Onboarding session.
Defined success criteria and timelines for change management and implementation.
Ensured the Scope and Timelines had the appropriate internal endorsement and set success metrics.
Multiple live training sessions, full access to all online User Guides and ongoing Monthly User Training Webinar.
Evaluated against the success metrics when appropriate.
TrueNorth Steel successfully standardized their safety processes, enabling them to learn from safety incidents at the company level rather than just at individual sites. By sharing the safety data across multiple sites, TrueNorth Steel was able to be proactive in preventing recurring incidents.
SafetyIQ implemented an employee database that helped provide accurate data that eliminated the chance of human error, saving the safety team time on data editing and providing real-time reporting capabilities.
Transitioning from MSDSOnline (Velocity EHS) allowed TrueNorth Steel to quickly access safety data sheets, facilitating immediate, informed decisions, and streamline their tracking.
Overall, the company now benefits from comprehensive data shared across all sites, which enables the company to make data-driven decisions.
"With SafetyIQ, ‘the data doesn’t lie.’ Our team can now rely on clean, organized data for accurate, real-time safety insights across all sites."
