Download our guide now to learn proven best practices for managing workplace health and safety in an evolving labor market.

The use of temporary labor, including contractors, offers employers many advantages when compared to full-time regular employees, including the operational flexibility to quickly adjust personnel levels to match demand, resource availability and other market variables. However, it’s important to remember that even though temporary labor can provide major financial and operational advantages for host employers, those benefits can be quickly erased by overwhelming financial liabilities and damage to your business if temporary worker health and safety is poorly managed. That’s why you need a robust contractor safety program, including a permit to work system, so you can assure that no highly hazardous job tasks occur (whether conducted by your own workers, contractors, or temporary workers) without proper review and approval.

This guide examines the current state of the temporary labor force, and highlights some of the factors that put temporary workers at elevated risk for injuries and illnesses. You’ll also learn how VelocityEHS solutions, including Contractor Safety & Permit to Work, can help you strengthen those safety management system to create a safer workplace for all.
