Thursday January 15th, 2026
12:00pm-1:00pm CST

What if every frontline worker had expert environmental, health and safety guidance at their fingertips – exactly when they need it?

Right now, 79% of critical safety incidents go unreported because workers lack instant access to expertise. Inspections become checkbox exercises. Incident reports miss crucial details. And workplace injuries cost U.S. businesses $176.5 billion annually, with 42% directly linked to insufficient training.

Leading organizations are solving this by putting artificial intelligence-powered expert guidance directly in workers’ hands during every inspection, incident report and safety decision. The results: 60% improvement in incident report quality and 40% reduction in safety-related delays.

Join EHS experts Pam Bobbitt and Tina Duffy to discover how on-demand expertise at the point of work is transforming frontline safety – without adding head count or overwhelming workers with more training.

You’ll learn:

  • Why the 79% underreporting gap is an expertise access problem that fingertip guidance solves instantly
  • How to deliver real-time expert knowledge as experienced professionals retire, while scaling it across your workforce
  • The ROI methodology for putting democratized expertise in every worker’s hands
  • Implementation strategies that drive adoption: positioning instant AI assistance as capability-building (not surveillance), leveraging peer champions and starting with high-impact use cases

Register now to put expert guidance at your frontline workers’ fingertips.
