Case Study: Cabela’s achieves OSHA compliance and streamlined SDS management with Verisk 3E's 3E Protect

No Fishing and Hunting for SDSs at Cabela's When Verisk 3E Provides the Gear

Cabela’s, the world’s foremost outfitter of hunting, fishing and outdoor gear with 31 stores and multiple distribution centers, struggled to maintain comprehensive, accessible Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) across thousands of products. After an incident involving accidental ingestion of a hazardous material, Cabela’s sought a reliable OSHA-compliant SDS management solution and selected Verisk 3E’s 3E Protect to centralize and standardize its SDS program.

Verisk 3E rolled out 3E Protect companywide (kiosks in stores and DCs) and built Cabela’s online SDS library of 8,100 SDSs indexed by Verisk 3E professionals, supplemented by employee training and a formal compliance program. Cabela’s also adopted Verisk 3E Transport Services and 3E Emergency Response for pre-classification, weekly hazardous-materials reports, label/marking guidance and 24/7 emergency support. The result: up-to-date, easily accessible SDSs, improved OSHA compliance, measurable operational reporting, and an internal audit confirming outsourcing to Verisk 3E was the most cost-effective approach.
