NSC Navigator allows you to organize your safety information in one place.
The National Safety Council has launched NSC Navigator, an innovative cloud computing solution that enables organizations to better manage their safety management systems and measure performance. NSC Navigator helps organizations of all sizes comply with safety regulations, take corrective actions and manage a process of sustainable improvement.

With NSC Navigator, companies organize their safety data in a single, secure web location that can be easily accessed from desktop, laptop or mobile devices. Six modules help companies digitally capture, organize, report and benchmark safety activities, eliminating the need for paper documents and multiple spreadsheets.

“NSC Navigator helps organizations identify leading indicators, which help them predict and prevent injuries,” said Janet Froetscher, NSC president and CEO. “NSC Navigator captures data in one central location, accessible on demand, giving organizations a clear view of their entire safety effort at a glance. Executives, managers and employees know exactly how they are performing and can manage a process of continuous improvement.”

NSC Navigator combines trusted NSC content with innovative ICertainty technology. Because it is delivered through cloud computing and all data and applications reside on the web, software updates and program enhancements are immediate and seamless. No IT or development costs are required, as the product is compatible with current enterprise platforms. NSC Navigator now is available to be tailored to fit the unique needs of any size organization seeking to keep its employees safe.
