SafetyTek Offers Free COVID-19 Health Analysis Solution

Through cloud and mobile technology, SafetyTek COVID-19 Workforce Health Analysis lets managers and employees collaborate, regardless of where they’re located, in protecting workers against exposure to the virus while keeping the business running

SafetyTek Offers Free COVID-19 Health Analysis Solution

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada – March 24, 2020 – Growing numbers of companies have implemented work-at-home policies to protect employees against the COVID-19 virus. However, many organizations need to continue providing essential services—construction, utilities, grocers, pharmacies, and delivery firms to name a few—that require teams of workers to interact with each other or the public. These companies face unprecedented challenges in ensuring that employees and contractors are protected from COVID-19 exposure while maintaining enough staff to meet business demands. To help these companies, SafetyTek Software, a leading environment, health and safety (EHS) platform provider, is making its new SafetyTek COVID-19 Workforce Health Analysis solution available for free.

SafetyTek COVID-19 Workforce Health Analysis is a cloud-based solution that allows safety, human resources (HR), and other managers to share updates with workers and monitor the COVID-19 status of employees to determine who is available to work at a facility or offsite location and who needs to stay at home. Because managers can use either their computers or mobile devices to access SafetyTek COVID-19 Workforce Health Analysis, they can readily make decisions whether at the office, at a work site, at home, or in quarantine. Meanwhile, the solution lets workers self-report any symptoms of COVID-19 or potential exposure using their mobile phones. By engaging the entire workforce as well as managers, SafetyTek helps companies to create a culture of safety and unify their teams in addressing the COVID-19 pandemic.

“We founded SafetyTek to help companies navigate the many hurdles in managing safety programs, toolbox talks, and communications required to maximize workplace safety. Now, we’re seeing businesses face an urgent and unprecedented challenge in mitigating the impact of COVID-19 on their workforces,” said SafetyTek Software Founder and CEO Ryan Quiring. “Using our data-driven, cloud-based EHS platform, we’ve been able to rapidly develop our standalone SafetyTek COVID-19 Workforce Health Analysis solution, which makes it easy for managers and workers to join forces in protecting people’s health while continuing business operations. We’re also making this solution free because we strongly believe that every company should have access to all the tools available to ensure their team’s health and safety.”

COVID-19 Mitigation Made Simple with SafetyTek
SafetyTek COVID-19 Workforce Health Analysis is an easy-to-use solution that safety, HR, and other managers can sign up for and begin using within minutes. With the software, managers can review a COVID-19 Workforce Health Analysis Dashboard that shows which workers have completed the COVID-19 Self-Assessment form, how many have symptoms or are at risk for COVID-19, and other related metrics. The resulting insights assist in decision-making about how to best protect workers’ health while keeping the business running. Additionally, the solution enables managers to:
● Upload employee emails in order to send out group communications efficiently.
● Send company or government updates about COVID-19 to workers.
● Provide employees a simple COVID-19 Self-Assessment form they can use to self-report their status daily through the platform via their mobile devices.

Notably, SafetyTek COVID-19 Workforce Health Analysis is an extension of the cloud-based SafetyTek Workplace Safety Engagement Platform being used by companies across North America—ensuring the scalability, reliability and performance needed to manage businesses’ COVID-19 mitigation efforts. Organizations providing essential services can benefit most immediately from using the solution. However, other businesses can also take advantage of the solution to efficiently update workers and make informed decisions about how to adjust their remote work policies as the COVID-19 situation evolves.

Availability
SafetyTek COVID-19 Workforce Health Analysis is a standalone solution that is available today at no cost to users. To sign up for the free solution, visit https://safetytek.io/covid-19.

Hamilton Caster Appoints Andrew D. Stamp as Director of Sales

Hamilton Caster & Mfg. Co., a 117-year-old industry leader in heavy-duty industrial casters, proudly announces the enhancement of its legacy Super Endurance Caster (SEC) series, now rebranded as the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series. In addition, Hamilton is introducing the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster (ZFSEC2) series, both of which feature a new heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal designed to elevate performance in the most demanding environments.
The Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series replaces Hamilton’s legacy SEC series, setting a new benchmark for kingpinless caster design in extra heavy-duty applications. Central to this upgrade is the heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal, which offers protection against dirt, debris, and moisture. This advanced sealing technology ensures consistent performance and extends the life of the caster, making it the ideal choice for environments where reliability is critical.
"With the introduction of the V-Style seal, the ZFSEC series is engineered to withstand the harshest conditions while providing zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free operation," said Mark Lippert, president of Hamilton Caster. "This enhancement allows our customers to minimize maintenance costs and downtime, further solidifying Hamilton’s reputation for durability and dependability."
The ZFSEC series retains the robust construction that Hamilton is known for, including a swivel top plate and inner raceway made from forged steel, providing superior strength for shock conditions. Sealed precision ball bearings are also now standard in all wheels, contributing to the maintenance-free performance of the series. Notably, the zerk fittings have been eliminated, as the new design makes them unnecessary.
Complementing the ZFSEC series, Hamilton introduces the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Wheel Caster (ZFSEC2) series. This dual wheel series is engineered for extra heavy-duty applications where stability, durability, and maintenance-free operation are paramount. Like its counterpart, the ZFSEC2 series leverages the new 'V-Style' seal, ensuring that each caster is fully protected against contaminants that could compromise performance.
Combined with sealed precision ball wheel bearings, this caster series ensures zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free performance. The dual-wheel configuration enhances stability and allows for a lower overall height, offering a perfect blend of strength and maneuverability.
Casters in both series are finished in a durable HAA polyester platinum powder coat and are available in a wide variety of wheel types, allowing for customization based on application needs. For complete wheel specs and product details check out the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster Landing Page and all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster Landing Page.

New Horizon Releases Innovative Functionality for Optimizing Inbound Logistics Scheduling at DCs

ACTON, Massachusetts – September 3, 2024 – New Horizon Soft, LLC (https://www.newhorizon.ai), a global leader in AI-powered supply chain planning software, announced today the release of a new version of its Buyers Workbench procurement planning software. The latest version includes the ability to optimally schedule inbound deliveries, taking into account distribution center (DC) receiving capacity, thus minimizing receiving bottlenecks and lowering inbound logistics costs. A research paper describing the innovative methodology and its deployment at an iconic $10B+ U.S. quick-service restaurant chain was recently published in the peer-reviewed academic journal, the International Journal of Operations Research and Information Systems.

Supply chain organizations typically plan purchase orders without regard to DC receiving capacity. This leads to bottlenecks on some days and underutilized staff on others. New Horizon’s methodology, called Master Purchasing Receipt Scheduling (MPRS), uses a novel algorithm to automatically and optimally schedule deliveries. The algorithm plans deliveries at the time of purchase order creation and results in a steady volume of deliveries and lower planning and logistics costs. While first deployed at a restaurant chain, the methodology is applicable to any manufacturer, wholesaler, retailer, or foodservice company operating high-velocity DCs.
