  • Safety management system and method
    Patent number: 7363193
    Abstract: A safety management system includes a processor and memory in which a safety database is maintained. The safety management system receives safety data from one or more portable devices and/or computers, and the system stores this safety data in the database. When a safety incident occurs, such as an accident, the type of incident is recorded and additional information about the incident is recorded in the database. This information then is used to generate a model of the rate of safety incidents. This model is then used to forecast future safety incidence rates for planning and budgeting purposes.
