How Going Digital Will Save Time, Money, and Trees

Do you want to save your organization $25,000 this year? 

According to The National Centre for the Middle Market, the average office worker uses 10,000 sheets of paper per year. One four-drawer file cabinet holds $25,000 worth of paper. Reduce or eliminate paper use in your organization to save money.
 
How many file drawers does your health and safety program occupy? Your health and safety program includes:

• Program, policies, and procedures
• Applicable forms and paperwork,
• SDSs
• Training Records

 
By taking your entire health and safety program digital, your organization will be primed for cost savings and efficient records and safety management. As well, your organization will be fulfilling its social responsibility by adopting an environmentally friendlier approach to safety in the workplace.

Save Money

If a four-drawer file cabinet holds $25,000 worth of paper, reducing the amount of paper you use this year by even one drawer will save over $5000. With the use of electronic online health and safety management systems, paper records can be replaced with digital files. Organizations will enjoy saving the cost of paper, as well as savings associated with reduced printer/copier ink, wear and tear, and rental fees. ​
