Scenario Learning Expands into Workplace Safety with the Launch of SafePersonnel

Cincinnati, Ohio (PRWEB) March 05, 2014

Over the past decade, Scenario Learning has helped thousands of school districts, colleges and insurance partners reduce losses while increasing safety with the SafeSchools and SafeColleges product lines. Now, through the launch of the SafePersonnel suite, the leading developer of safety and compliance solutions is helping non-academic organizations create safer workplaces.

U.S. workplace statistics reveal that nearly 2 million workers are victims of workplace violence each year, one in four women reports workplace harassment and up to one-third of employees experience workplace bullying.

Providing a safe and hazard-free workplace is not just an employer’s responsibility, it is often the law. Workplace safety encompasses a variety of topics, including environmental hazards such as asbestos awareness or hazard communications; illegal employment practices such as discrimination or sexual harassment; and human resource concerns such as workplace bullying and violence prevention. Employers who don’t protect workers may incur OSHA fines, workers’ comp claims or costly lawsuits – all of which are detrimental to any organization.

The SafePersonnel suite can help employers provide safer workplaces and has been customized for municipalities, non-profits, businesses and other non-academic organizations. The suite includes solutions for staff training and compliance management, safety incident reporting and tracking, and Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and chemical inventory management.

”We developed the SafePersonnel product line because of the terrific success that our education customers have had with SafeSchools and SafeColleges,” said Scenario Learning CEO Brian Taylor. “Many of our customers, who have implemented the programs well, have reduced losses by more than 50 percent, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, all while increasing safety. We want to deliver these same benefits to other organizations as well.”

Long-time Scenario Learning partners, Keenan, the largest privately held insurance brokerage/consulting firm in California, and the Special Districts Association of Oregon (SDAO) have already implemented the SafePersonnel Staff Training and Compliance Management System for their municipality clients.

The SafePersonnel Staff Training System includes a comprehensive library of expert-authored courses on workplace safety topics. The system allows managers to easily assign training, and automatically tracks training completions in real-time. Employees say they like the flexibility that online training provides, allowing them to complete training from any web-enabled device.
