KPA Announces New Environmental & Safety Risk Assessment, a Complimentary Tool used to Reduce Risk
Lafayette, CO (PRWEB) July 09, 2013 -- In response to increased regulatory inspections, compliance fines, and heightened injuries in the automotive industry, KPA has created the Environmental & Safety Risk Assessment. The customized, complimentary assessment provides dealers and collision centers with a method to manage the Environment and Safety liabilities of their operations. There are many requirements set by state and federal regulatory agencies including OSHA, EPA and DOT, as well as best management practices that can be implemented to reduce risk and injury of employees. This program is designed to assess company liabilities, allowing mangers to then implement solutions on their own.
The Environmental & Safety Risk Assessment allows managers to maintain a safe and compliant business, reducing risk of employee injury and protecting their operations from a hefty fine. “Top violations in the auto industry are typically issued for missing or inadequate training and written programs, and many managers are unaware that they are not in compliance. The Environmental & Safety Risk Assessment provides managers with easy and efficient methods to stay in compliance and reduce their overall level of risk,” said Peter Zaidel, KPA Environment & Safety Product Director.
The Environmental & Safety Risk Assessment manages compliance through a series of options and steps:
1. Directs managers to easily determine which action items and requirements apply to their facility or dealership.
2. Defines the responsibilities for each action item.
3. Provides resources to complete each requirement.
4. Provides a personalized to do list of how to keep individual departments safe and compliant.
5. Checks off completed action items and requirements.
6. Highlights outstanding action items and requirements.
7. Start and stop this assessment as necessary.
KPA continues to innovate on behalf of the industry and their clients, providing accessible, comprehensive ways to stay compliant and safe. “The KPA team strives to provide our clients and the industry with the best regulatory compliance tools. The complimentary Environmental & Safety Risk Assessment allows managers to easily adhere to state and federal regulations, as well as keep their employees protected from hazards in the workplace,” noted Eric Schmitz, KPA Vice President of Product & Business Development.
