The cost of printing your plans is 1100% more than the cost of an electronic version.  This does not include the cost of a Subject Matter Expert (SME) creating an OSHA-compliant plan.

OSHA regularly fines companies that do not have a written plan and safety information. The cost of OSHA fines is increasing on August 1, 2016, from $7,000 per incident per location to $12,471, and for willful or repeated violations rising from $70,000 to $124,709. This will make it even more costly to not have a written plan in place. A national pharmacy was recently fined $40,000 for just one of its stores that did not have a written plan in place when one of its employees was injured.

Plans are available as an App (Apple & Android) on a user’s device, making the plans and all information available even if internet access or power is unavailable during an emergency. All Employees have what they need when they need it. The electronic format allows you to easily change the content such as contact names, phone numbers and any content or document in the plan. An electronic plan can be updated at any time and pushed out to all employees. There is no need for costly printing after revisions and everyone will have the most up to date plans and information.

Our plans were developed with Local, State, and Federal First responders and meet standards of All-Hazards as recommended by the US Department of Homeland Security. The plans you receive will meet and exceed all OSHA requirements, eliminating the need for additional expenses to have a SME create the content and plans.

With printing and shipping costs at an all-time high, electronic versions of emergency plans are typically 500% less expensive than the cost of printing flip-charts.  During the course of the year, a MERP can be revised at any time for no additional cost.  

The plans are 100% customizable. You can brand the plan with your organization’s logo, upload documents, building maps and add whatever content you feel necessary for your employees and volunteers to have including but not limited to emergency utility shut-off procedures, MSDS, SDS, lock out/tag out, confined space, safety training, and medical information.

Your number one asset is your employees. Protecting your employees shows they are valued members of the team and company. With Workplace Violence and targeted acts of violence on the rise, your plans demonstrate the organization is prepared to keep employees safe. Because our plans are designed to both prevent incidents and mitigate the effects of an incident, there is a direct tangible cost as the average direct cost to employers for an injured worker is $42,000 from lost time and lost revenues.

Per the Bureau of Labor Statistics 2014 Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries, 4,821 people, more than 13 per day, died while doing their jobs. Implementing safety measures can change these statistics. The indirect costs for a safety related injury are $192,000 from fines, lawsuits, and other costs.
