Recognition marks the 7th and 8th and 8th Occupational Health & Safety wins for the global EHS software provider
In a significant recognition of innovation and product excellence, Cority has been named a double winner of the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) New Product of the Year Award for both its Permit to Work (PTW) solution and the Industrial Hygiene Calculation Engine. These prestigious awards highlight Cority’s commitment to advancing workplace safety and enhancing worker health through its state-of-the-art solutions, which closely align with EHS market trends and the priorities of global companies—such as integrated and consolidated solutions as well as digitization.
“The push towards digitization in EHS&S (Environmental, Health, Safety, & Sustainability) is a much-needed technological advancement and a strategic necessity. Economic pressures and market dynamics are compelling companies to rethink their strategies. Digitization offers a solution to manage these pressures efficiently. It enables companies the ability to achieve cost savings, improve resource allocation, and ensure compliance cost-effectively.” – Bill Palmer, Product Marketing Manager, Environmental and Safety at Cority – EHS Trends Recap
A Dual Win for Cority
Cority secured victories in two distinct categories, further solidifying its status as a leader in the industry:
Category #1: Worker Health
2024 – OH&S Winner for Product: Industrial Hygiene Calculation Engine
Cority’s Industrial Hygiene Calculation Engine stood out for its ability to help organizations proactively manage worker health. By providing accurate exposure assessments, risk analysis, and regulatory compliance tools, this product ensures that employees are protected from hazardous conditions.
The innovative solution expands Cority’s market-leading SaaS Industrial Hygiene (IH) suite, available within CorityOne, the company’s integrated EHS SaaS-based platform. Cority’s IH Calculation Engine provides a scalable and seamless path for future growth by providing professionals with a powerful, flexible tool to design advanced hygiene exposure equations, streamline standard workflows, and alert leaders to emerging risks.
The Industrial Hygiene Calculation Engine offers a significant advancement in managing workplace exposures by enabling IH professionals to create complex equations that accurately monitor exposures to agents such as radiation, noise, and temperature extremes. It facilitates rapid comparison of calculated results against permissible limits, ensuring compliance and guiding data-driven decisions for workplace safety.
Moreover, leaders and decision-makers can effortlessly visualize calculation results on reports and advanced dashboards to guide real-time EHS strategy and optimize decision-making on prioritization and resource use. Cority is the only EHS enterprise software provider offering such advanced IH calculation functionality.
Category #2: Workforce Management Systems
2024 – OH&S Winner for Product: Permit to Work
Cority’s Permit to Work (PTW) solution also earned top honors in the Workforce Management Systems category. This software solution streamlines the permit management process by automating workflows, minimizing administrative burdens, and ensuring that all safety protocols are met before any work begins. The tool enhances efficiency while maintaining the highest standards of safety and compliance.
Cority’s PTW solution goes beyond just managing permits—it transforms how organizations approach high-risk tasks. With features like mobile-enabled reporting, configurable workflows, and advanced analytics, it offers a comprehensive toolkit for driving safety, compliance, and performance improvements across the entire workforce.
Managing high-risk tasks in the workplace can be a daunting challenge for many safety leaders. When the stakes are high, there is no room for error; the smallest oversight can result in significant harm to workers or even threaten the future of a business. Cority’s PTW solution empowers businesses to confidently navigate these high-risk scenarios, ensuring safety, compliance, and operational excellence.
