Measure the Safety Climate of Your Company

Safety culture

The International Labour Organization (ILO) estimates that 4% of the world's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is negatively affected by occupational accidents or work-related illnesses. The Interdisciplinary Association of Occupational Health and Hygiene of Mexico estimates the average cost of each occupational accident at nearly $12,000. These figures not only reflect economic losses but also underscore the family and social repercussions involved.
Despite significant advances in prevention, which have achieved a high level of specialization and innovation in effective methods, occupational accidents continue to occur. It is imperative to explore new approaches that address the influence of the organizational environment or safety culture on workers' safe behavior.
WorkSafeRR emerges as a solution to this challenge, integrating theories and methodologies with artificial intelligence to strengthen prevention effectively and efficiently.

Solution: WorkSafeRR

WorkSafeRR is an innovative diagnostic approach to assessing safety culture in an organization. This methodology identifies risk factors, unsafe conditions, and encourages incident reporting, among other key aspects.
Through an online, anonymous questionnaire applied to all employees, WorkSafeRR evaluates eight factors related to safety climate and includes sections of open questions for incident reporting and improvement suggestions, creating a robust communication channel.
With WorkSafeRR, organizations can capture the true state of safety, opening opportunities for preventive action and controlling potential incidents.
The final report provides detailed scores for each of the eight factors evaluated and analyzes responses to open questions using artificial intelligence, providing valuable and timely information to identify areas of risk and behaviors that may lead to occupational accidents.
The questionnaire application is simple and quick, taking between 10 to 15 minutes, and generates immediate results, facilitating companies in identifying and implementing specific corrective actions.
