System and Method For Safety Management
First Claim
1. A computerized method of safety improvement and management within an organization comprising:
- receiving a first set of data from the organization over a global communication network, the first set of data including at least one of organizational data, safety incident data, safety performance data, and workplace hazard data;
performing, within a computer process, a needs assessment for the organization by analyzing the first set of data, the needs assessment generating information regarding at least one of existing safety issues, gaps within the organization'"'"'s safety performance, and gaps within the organization'"'"'s safety procedures;
creating, within a computer process, a safety improvement program for the organization, the safety program being based, at least in part upon the needs assessment and including solutions to the existing safety issues and/or gaps within the organization'"'"'s safety performance and procedures.

Abstract
A computerized method of safety improvement and management within an organization may include receiving a first set of data from the organization over a global communication network. The first set of data may include organizational data, safety incident data, safety performance data, and/or workplace hazard data. The computerized method may also perform, within a computer process, a needs assessment for the organization by analyzing the first set of data. The needs assessment may generate information regarding at existing safety issues, gaps within the organization'"'"'s safety performance, and/or gaps within the organization'"'"'s safety procedures. The computerized method may then, within a computer process create a safety program for the organization. The safety program may be based, at least in part upon the needs assessment and may include solutions to the existing safety issues and/or gaps within the organization'"'"'s safety performance and procedures.
