Feb. 20, 2018
The five-step assessment and review emphasizes direct and indirect cost savings, productivity and risk reduction.

MCR Safety has over forty years of experience in the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) field with their assortment of offerings including gloves, glasses, and garments.

The company says they have "dedicated safety professionals committed to engaging at industrial workplaces to demonstrate our products, provide training, and extend our 360° Protection Program."

The MCR Safety 360° Protection Program is designed to perform a complete assessment and review of current safety gear performance. This service will provide an emphasis on direct and indirect cost savings, productivity, risk reduction, now and in the future. This is achieved by the following comprehensive five-step process:  

  • Evaluate: Meet with key stakeholders to gain an understanding of the current state of safety within the site(s). Perform a shop-floor “safety walk” to observe PPE in action at the various job functions.
  • Measure: Data will be collected regarding the type of injuries, costs and product lifecycle of current PPE being used.
  • Analyze: Analyze data to provide best option(s) for injury elimination, improving longevity of safety gear, and documenting anticipated cost savings. Provide samples for testing and validate actual results versus expected results.
  • Execute: Implement the agreed upon PPE plan. Train on the benefits of new safety gear to increase user confidence, and perform fit evaluations to ensure proper sizing to maximize worker productivity. Confirm with distributor partner the rate of consumption to ensure proper levels of inventory are maintained, to ensure a seamless conversion.
  • Protect: Success of the MCR Safety 360° Protection Program will better protect people. MCR will perform follow up calls to confirm greater safety, productivity, and cost savings objectives remain in place.
