TORONTO — Harness Software announces the availability of a free Safety Meeting/Toolbox Talk App that will enable construction companies to disseminate COVID-19 virus-related information to their remote workforces and help them document employee meetings.

This app is immediately available to all construction companies in North America on all mobile devices. The app includes access to the latest content from reputable sources such as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO), and National Institutes of Health (NIH). All information within the app will be organized into short talks with an emphasis on points relevant to construction workers. The app will update automatically as more information becomes available.

“Construction workers don’t have the option to work from home. Companies need easy access to the information necessary to protect their employees and keep them as productive as possible during this crisis. We are all in this together. That’s why we’re launching this free resource,” said Tom Whitaker, CEO of Harness Software.

All materials will be available in English and Spanish. To verify that workers are informed, foremen or supervisors can capture the names and signatures from the attendees of each safety meeting/toolbox talk. Records generated as PDFs of each meeting can be automatically emailed back to the office.

Existing Harness Software customers will also receive enhanced resources as part of this program to battle fear and the spread of the disease. Find out more and access the app at www.harnessup.com/covid-19.
