Canadian HSE Registry, SafetyPass, and Gemini Unveil Integrated Health, Safety, and Environment Solution
Leading Industry Experts Collaborate in Development of
Comprehensive HSE Services
Calgary, Alberta, Canada - Canadian HSE Registry, SafetyPass, and Gemini Performance Solutions Inc. (Gemini) announce that they will unveil their integrated Health, Safety, and Environmental solution at a breakfast launch on September 18th, 2008.
"The Canadian HSE Registry is expanding its industry leading contractor pre-qualification solution with the formation of these new strategic partnerships. The SafetyPass training and certification tracking system and Gemini's Health Safety and Environment Resource iLibrary (THRIL) have been integrated to deliver an all-in-one solution to meet the needs of Contractors and Oil and Gas Companies alike," stated Cal Fairbanks, Canadian HSE Registry President and CEO.
Cal Fairbanks, President of the Canadian HSE Registry stated that, "This
was a natural fit for us. We have listened to many of our clients' concerns
about competency and safe work practices in the industry. Likewise, we have
heard loud and clear the concerns from contractors regarding the high cost
to maintain competency. This partnership delivers an ideal solution to meet
those concerns."
THRIL, which includes company specific orientation courses and over fifty course and assessment titles and growing, has been developed in collaboration with some of the most well-known and respected HSE industry experts in Alberta. "By offering courses and assessments online, contractors and employees have the freedom and flexibility to complete or review training when it is most ideal for them. On the flipside, Oil and Gas Companies can mandate critical training such as orientation, in advance and simplify the selection process," commented Gemini President and CEO, Kim Adolphe.
"Verifying competency is critical," added Ryan Jackson, SafetyPass CEO. "SafetyPass takes the evolution of due diligence to the employee level. By tracking training tickets and certifications, providing alerts and notifications of expiry dates, and verifying an employee's credentials when they arrive at the worksite, SafetyPass strengthens a company's ability to be more accountable in maintaining proper training management of their employees."
"The goal of this cooperative initiative is to save time and money spent on training, increase competency, and allow greater flexibility by providing immediate access. In return, this solution will help reduce health, safety and environmental incidents - the goal we all hope to achieve", concluded Cal Fairbanks.
