THE CHALLENGE
At Reach Wireline, the workforce is at times exposed to various hazards like live and active powerlines.
This is quite dangerous and poses a great risk to employees, who could be working on projects for a few months at a
stretch.
Health and safety plays a pivotal role at K-Line Maintenance & Construction where leaders like Vincent, can protect all workers and manage all vital health and safety information for years on end.
THE SOLUTION
It was difficult for other software systems to fulfill all K-Line Maintenance and Construction’s requirements. Enter the
EcoOnline suite of safety solutions!
With the EcoOnline EHS management solution helping to manage aspects of K-Line’s health and safety program and the contractor accreditation solution to manage and accredit contractors, K-Line found the winning formula right for the organization.
The fact that the EcoOnline solution was created with a purpose of being easy to use and highly intuitive, further propelled the team to success.
