North American company sees substantial return managing contractor safety and compliance within a singular platform

Not properly vetting your subcontractors can cost you. Past OSHA cases demonstrate how this can easily happen if you don’t have a process in place to ensure subcontractors have the skills and experience to get the job done safely.

During Veriforce’s Select Client Series event on April 22, 2022, Dr. Linda Martin (SafeLand) hosted a panel discussion on “Critical Components and Best Practices Subcontractor Management.” Joining Dr. Martin for the guided discussion were four industry experts, Mr. Richard Emberling (Veriforce), Mr. Bill Walker (Batallion Oil), Mr. David Bates (OSHA Area Director – Ret.), and Mr. Harris Neely (Aethon Energy).

Proper and continuous safety training at all levels within your operation, combined with an executable safety management system that incorporates prevention through design techniques, can reduce costly and dangerous mistakes and ensure everyone understands expectations.
