Case Study: Dow Chemical Company achieves reduced workplace risk with Cority's Industrial Hygiene solution

Why Dow Chemical chose Cority’s Industrial Hygiene solution over a competitor’s to reduce workplace risk

Dow Chemical Company, a global chemical manufacturer with 54,000+ employees, needed to replace a dated Microsoft Access–based industrial hygiene system that couldn’t scale or meet their industrial hygienists’ requirements. After evaluating options, Dow chose Cority’s Industrial Hygiene solution as the most cost‑effective, flexible tool to support their qualitative risk‑assessment and exposure‑monitoring needs.

Cority delivered a configurable IH suite that streamlined data entry with complex business rules (for example, separating duration and frequency fields), simplified workflows for roughly 1,000 users, and enabled deployment across 7 pilot sites with plans to scale to as many as 120 sites. The smooth implementation reduced potential entry errors, improved exposure tracking across inhalation, dermal, ergonomic and physical risks, and supports Dow’s measurable goal of reducing overall workplace risk.
