Case Study: Royal DSM achieves 25X shop floor engagement with SafetyAmp

How Royal DSM improved shop floor reporting

Royal DSM, a global leader in Nutrition, Health, and Sustainable Living, faced challenges with time-consuming, paper-based safety reporting. Their EHS team struggled to gather critical frontline data efficiently, as reports were often manually entered into spreadsheets or lost, leading to low employee engagement in safety programs. To address this, they partnered with vendor SafetyAmp to digitally transform their safety recordkeeping.

SafetyAmp implemented mobile safety applications to digitize reporting for near misses, observations, and other tasks. This solution led to a dramatic increase in engagement, with one site jumping from four reports a month to over 100 actionable reports in a single day. The data provided greater insight into trends, allowing DSM to focus risk reduction efforts effectively. SafetyAmp's platform also automated workflows, generated significant cost savings, and helped foster a stronger, more proactive safety culture across their global operations.
