Missed our webinar on AI, HOP and compliance in safety? Christopher Skipper, CSP, CFPS Skipper and Tim Page-Bottorff MS, CSP, CIT, FASSP explored how these approaches work together to drive meaningful risk reduction. With 38% of attendees unfamiliar with Human and Organizational Performance principles, there's clear opportunity to expand the conversation around proactive safety strategies.
I am passionate safety leader that strongly believes in keeping workers safe through the use of technology for good.
I would like to thank everyone that attended Tuesday's Voxel webinar "Driving Down Risk: Where AI Meets HOP and Compliance in Safety". I had fun just scratching the surface on this topic with my friend and fellow safety professional Tim Page-Bottorff MS, CSP, CIT, FASSP. Compliance based safety is the floor not the ceiling for safety pros and based on the polling at the beginning of the webinar, Human and Organizational Performance or HOP continues to be an emerging hot topic with 29% of the attendees incorporating HOP principles into their safety efforts and ~38% of the attendees stating that they were not familiar with HOP principles. For those of you who are interested in learning more about HOP, I would highly recommend "The 5 Principles of Human Performance", written by Todd Conklin, which Todd describes as "a great introduction into the building blocks of human performance for the new view of safety". I included a link to the book the comments.

Voxel's CEO Vernon O'Donnell joined Steve Taplin on Software Leaders Uncensored to discuss the evolution of AI-powered workplace safety and what it takes to scale technology that protects frontline workers. A few highlights from the conversation: 🔆 On deployment speed: Traditional safety programs take months to show impact. Voxel is up and running in hours. 🔆 On the AI mindset shift: 18 months ago, buyers were skeptical. Today? The market understanding of AI's potential has fundamentally changed. 🔆 On mission alignment: Vernon's family worked in agriculture, logistics, and manufacturing. He witnessed firsthand the long-term impact of workplace injuries on families. Voxel combines technical innovation with a deeply personal mission: sending workers home safer. The conversation also tackled talent wars, the uncertainty of forecasting in high-growth environments, and why San Francisco has become the epicenter of applied AI innovation again.

The most advanced safety technology means nothing if workers are too afraid to use it. Our Lead Engineer for Perception, Vaibhav Viswanathan, published a breakdown of the biggest misconceptions holding back computer vision adoption in industrial environments - and what the technology actually does in practice. The reality: Modern CV systems use body blurring and pose detection to identify systemic safety patterns, not individual performance. No facial recognition. No personal scorecards. Just insights like "ergonomic risks spike on third shift" or "near-misses cluster near loading dock 3." When deployed with anonymization built in and transparent stakeholder engagement, CV becomes one of the most powerful protective technologies available. The goal isn't surveillance - it's identifying spills, blocked exits, and unsafe conditions that endanger everyone.

Happy Veterans Day. Our CEO, Vernon O'Donnell said it better than we could —sharing his reflections below. 🇺🇸 #VeteransDay #Safetyfirst
When I enlisted in the Army at 17, it was pre-9/11 and motivated more by economics than mission - but my experience in uniform shaped everything that followed in ways both large and small. When I started my career Grainger post-grad school, one thing I didn't expect (naive in hindsight) was how many fellow veterans I'd encounter over the years who worked in logistics, warehousing, safety, and supply chain leadership. It makes total sense. In the Armed Forces, you are continuously having to move people, equipment, and supplies under pressure. To solve problems with limited resources. To lead teams through uncertainty. To be resilient. To understand that mission success depends on every person doing their job—and that when things go wrong, lives are at stake. Those aren't just transferable skills, they're the foundations of great supply chains as well. Today, I'm grateful to work with so many veterans who've brought that same sense of duty and precision to protecting their teams. They understand that workplace safety isn't a compliance checkbox - it's a responsibility to send people home to their families every single day. They understand deeply that it's always Safety First. To the servicemembers on our team at Voxel, our customers, and our partners: thank you for your service, then and now.

Our team is heading to Pennsylvania next week to talk with safety professionals about how AI is reshaping workplace safety. Michael Stangl will be joining the NEPA ASSP Chapter and NEPA Safety Network to explore how computer vision technology is helping organizations move from reactive safety programs to proactive prevention—and what that looks like in real-world industrial environments. If you're in the area and want to learn how companies are using AI to identify risks before they become incidents, we'd love to see you there. 📅 Tuesday, Nov 18 | 8-10am ET 📍 Pittston Memorial Library, Pittston, PA The link to register is in the comments! #WorkplaceSafety #AIinSafety #SafetyTech #ASSP

Our CEO Vernon O'Donnell's latest piece is live in The AI Journal: "The Human-Centered Imperative: Why Applied AI Requires Ethical Guardrails." As applied AI moves deeper into workplace environments, the question isn't just what technology can do - it's what it should do. Vernon breaks down why ethical design isn't a limitation on innovation, but a competitive advantage that drives faster adoption, stronger retention, and sustainable ROI. The takeaway? In an AI-saturated market, trust will separate the technologies that create lasting value from those that become cautionary tales.

The future of workplace safety isn't choosing between compliance, human-centered practices, or technology - it's bringing them together. Join Tim Page-Bottorff MS, CSP, CIT, FASSP (Senior VP at American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP)) and our own Christopher Skipper, CSP, CFPS (Head of Customer Solutions) for a 30-minute conversation on how AI computer vision is helping safety leaders get the visibility they need while keeping people at the center of every decision. You'll walk away understanding how organizations are using AI to drive proactive, measurable safety improvements without losing sight of what matters most: the humans doing the work. 📅 Nov 18 | 10am PT/1pm ET 🔗 The link to register is in the comments. 🔗 #WorkplaceSafety #AIinSafety #SafetyTech

Our Head of Customer Solutions, Christopher Skipper, CSP, CFPS, recently wrote about the most common mistake companies make when implementing AI-powered safety systems — and how to avoid it. In his article for the Timber Products Manufacturers Association (TPM), Chris explains why using computer vision AI as a "digital traffic cop" misses the point entirely. If workers are consistently violating safety protocols in the same locations, the problem isn't the workers — it's the system forcing them into unsafe situations. Chris writes, "When data shows workers consistently cutting corners at a specific location, the solution isn't more enforcement – it's redesigning the corner itself."
