Biotech
Content, training, and technology for the biotech industry
Biotechnology is a rapidly changing, innovative industry that focuses on developing products that improve health and quality of life. To meet their mission, the biotech industry prioritizes speed to market. Conversely, it is a high risk environment with increased exposure and regulatory requirements, so environmental safety is also a critical focal point. Managing safety and operational workflows such as monitoring chemical usage, reporting incidents, tracking risks, and preparing for audits and inspections is a time consuming task which can impede on the primary goal of rapid product development. While one may have the potential to hinder the other, they are not competing priorities and must go hand-in-hand.
HSI is also constantly innovating and working on ways to optimize results within environment, health, safety and sustainability programs. We focus on our end users to ensure an intuitive platform that is engaging while providing valuable insights that help you optimize output while maintaining OHS and environmental standards. HSI is the trusted platform that will provide increased visibility and control over regulatory safety and standards, so that you can focus on the growth of your program.

Personalize
HSI customers are leaders, which means you go above and beyond regulatory requirements. You have developed your own unique training content and have dozens to hundreds of documents, processes, and policies. You likely deliver training online, in-person and virtually. No worries, we have systems allowing you to upload your own content, add to ours and options to deliver training the way it works best for you.

Work smarter and faster
Start each day with the assurance your employees have access to the information they need to do their work competently, safely, and compliant. At the push of a button, you can assign training, tasks, push-messages, request follow-ups, approve progress, and engage with your workforce regardless of geography or time zone. Store all documents, SOP’s, programs, and policies with the assurance the system is recording version history.

Training for the Whole Person
Everyone is dealing with issues in their personal life that may affect their focus and performance on the job. Your training program can go beyond the foundational elements of equipment and machinery use and safety practices.
- Diversity, equity, and inclusion. Train your employees on unconscious bias, tokenism, and LGBTQ+ issues so they can bring their full selves to work.
- Health and wellness. Stress and anxiety can cause dangerous distractions at work. Consider offering training courses on stress management and how to build resilience.
- Soft skills. We offer many more topics like soft skills training, new manager and supervisor training, and more. Help your employees communicate and collaborate more effectively with our training. Check out our employee training topics.
