If keeping compliant, getting new employees ready for the job sooner, and saving money sound interesting, you might want to have a closer look at Compliance Management. Many pallet and lumber companies have antiquated human resources (HR) recordkeeping practices that could be costing them more money than they realize.
According to Colton McKinney of Compliance Management, the company offers a “software as a service” designed to deliver audited OSHA training for all employees as well as contractors who visit your site. Compliance Management also provides a hiring service which expedites the processing of new employees so that they can become productive faster.
Targeted at blue collar operations, Compliance Management’s package is customized to meet the needs of individual businesses, including site specific information. Sites can have their own unique hazards that must be included in training to be fully compliant. An attractive feature to any frontline manager, the system keeps track of employee training and provides up-to-date training records for all active employees. It eliminates the inconsistencies of manually tracking training requirements and the resulting training gaps that can be experienced in a busy plant.
Compliance Management also offers a contractor training function. As long as the contractors you allow on site have access to a computer and an Internet connection, they can quickly undertake any necessary training. Through administrator access, site managers will be able to view to ensure that contractors have completed their training.
Compliance Management’s OSHA training platform also features a hiring service that allows new and prospective employees to complete necessary paperwork online, reducing clerical workload. Using the hiring service, an employee can be ready to work in as little as an hour, according to McKinney. Also, the cost of the solution is scalable, based on a per-employee basis.
“My dad has been in the pallet business for 30 years, and as a family, we have been in the industry since the 1950s,” Colton explained.
Looking for an effective compliance system, the company was faced with hiring someone to manage compliance full-time, to have someone write a compliance manual or a generic software package not tailored to industrial applications such as pallet operations and hope to get by with that.
Instead, McKinney decided to build a solution that met the needs of their family pallet business. He quickly heard from other industrial businesses about their need for such a solution. Partners in the venture include Pearson Safety Solutions, specifically Donna S. Pearson, CSP, who acts as the director of safety for Compliance Management. The other partner is In2vate, LLC a nationwide provider of training programs, reporting systems, consultative services, and other web-based applications.. In2vate developed and manages Compliance Management’s online platform and handles other technical operations for the co-venture.
“We don’t want you to stress about hiring and training,” McKinney concluded.
Compliance Management’s contractor training will allow you to rest assured that everyone on your property
