Your incident reports are being submitted, your inspections are logged, your training completion rates look solid. On paper, your EHS programme is working. But here's the question nobody's asking: is any of it actually making your workers safer?
Most EHS systems were built to capture activity - forms submitted, boxes ticked, audits filed. And for years, that was enough. Then AI entered the picture. And suddenly, the quality of what goes into your system determines everything that comes back out. Vague language, fatigued workers entering minimal detail, terminology used inconsistently across sites - AI doesn't fix those problems. It learns from them. It scales them.
In this webinar, IOSH's Dr Chris Davis and Ideagen's Pamala Bobbitt make an argument that most EHS software vendors won't: that the gap between engaging with a safety system and actually getting safer is wider than most organisations realise - and that closing it requires rethinking not just the technology, but the language, the data, and the purpose behind it all.
Pam Bobbitt is the Vice President Practice Lead at Ideagen, where she leverages her years in industry as an EHS (Environmental, Health, and Safety) professional to translate business requirements into innovative technology. Pam has spent the last 17 years supporting customers in leveraging EHSQ SaaS products to drive results, obtain goals and achieve operational resilience.
Dr. Christopher Davis specializes in occupational wellbeing, sustainable work, and human capital management. With a background in academia and extensive research experience, he brings valuable insights into safety and health practices.
