Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

TAPPISAFE®, the first industry-recognized safety orientation and verification program for the pulp, paper, tissue, packaging, and converting industries, offers a standardized Basic Orientation along with customized Site-Specific Orientations, Employee Orientations and convenient GateCheck Verification.

With over one million tests implemented, representing over 225,000 students, TAPPISAFE’s customized orientations are developed to meet the producer facilities’ specific safety requirements. Contractor companies using TAPPISAFE for their Employee Orientations incur no development or yearly update costs and can also incorporate topic-specific courses into their safety compliance program. Due to the current social distancing environment, many companies utilize blended learning options with instructor-led courses via Zoom or Microsoft TEAMS in conjunction with online testing through TAPPISAFE.

TAPPISAFE’s Basic Orientation is recognized as an OSHA-awareness level safety orientation throughout the industry. Customized Site-Specific Orientations help ensure each contractor employee has the necessary safety information before arriving at a facility for work. Courses can be accessed any time or place with an internet connection, allowing the workforce to complete each orientation efficiently. All records are in real-time and accessible 24/7.

TAPPISAFE also offers a convenient GateCheck verification tool which allows facilities to manage their external contractor employees upon arrival. It provides real-time reports with updated information, time-stamp captures, orientation verifications, and the ability to create muster lists for location.

Today, more than 100 facilities, and 10,000 contractors and suppliers, are currently taking advantage of the cost savings, time efficiencies and reduced regulatory scrutiny that TAPPISAFE provides.
