Suppliers

As their primary role, safety professionals typically manage a safe work culture. Instead, shuffling papers often becomes increasingly important along with accepting the administrator role and managing company information on third-party safety database sites.

When done correctly, prequalification will reduce company risk, employee stress, and confusion regarding safety expectations. Working with suppliers or third-party contractors to improve business operations and capabilities can certainly have its advantages. It can also have drawbacks often associated with increased exposure to risks.
