Health & Safety for Global Supply Chains

Avetta empowers you to create a safe operating environment for all your employees

Increased exposure to safety risks, mismanagement of the contractor ecosystem, non-compliance with safety regulations, and lack of proper safety controls - all these factors and more can lead to loss of lives, time, productivity and trust in businesses.

Besides having a devastating impact on the victim’s family and the community, a workplace injury or fatality can have severe implications for your company as well. Besides medical reimbursements or legal sanctions, a company may also risk losing its employees and most importantly brand reputation.

Health and safety risks don’t just impact lives, they can also impact a company’s bottomline

Direct financial costs of workplace injuries exceed $170 billion annually.
Private industry employers reported 2.7 million nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses in 2020
Direct costs of even one workplace safety incident on average is a minimum of $40,000 – but this is just the tip of a very expensive iceberg, as one must also consider the indirect costs.
Safety costs range from $47,000 per accident to $1.2 million per fatality according to the National Safety Council (NSC).
Suppliers improve 7-8%, per year, on safety measures after they join.

Our Approach



Verification Services and Assessments

Verify whether supplier safety standards and policies are up to date:

Avetta conducts regular audits to ensure that supplier safety standards, policies, and documentation are updated regularly.

Make sure worker safety is not maintained just on paper:

With implementation audits, we compare established policies and procedures against accident investigation forms, inspection, and training logs to check that proper controls are implemented.

Assess the safety situation on-site:

Avetta’s experienced auditors inspect sites while suppliers are on the job to understand whether proper safety controls are implemented on-site.

Workforce Management

Ensure only qualified workers arrive on-site:

Avetta defines, collects, and verifies the competencies of workers arriving on site.

Enhance workforce awareness around health and safety:

By leveraging our platform, clients can create and deliver interactive training and inductions online or manage classroom (face-to-face) sessions.

Control access of workers entering on-site:

Avetta’s Access Management technology gives you visibility over who is on your work sites at any time.

Worksite Safety

Create and track specific work orders all within one platform:

Clients can manage individual projects and supplier compliance all in one system, reducing risk arising from miscommunication.

Keep full visibility at every level of the process:

Require suppliers to digitally complete or attach safety assessments for each work order, to ensure proper safety precautions are taken on site. In addition, once work is completed, clients can leave a performance review, giving valuable insight when taking bids for future work.

Uphold the highest standards of safety:

Suppliers are only allowed to begin work once authorized, ensuring safety assessment forms are completed in advance.
