University

The École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EFPL) uses the TechniData HSS (Health and Safety Surveillance) IT solution based on SAP EH&S (Environment, Health and Safety) for occupational healthcare and safety. It handles all processes for risk assessments and check-ups efficiently in a single system, thereby cutting administrative outlay significantly. The university complies with all occupational health and safety regulations and documents these in full. One of the key improvements that this IT solution from TechniData provides EPFL with is protection for staff against hazards in the workplace.

Company

Some 13,000 people from 107 countries live, study, and teach on the campus of the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). With over 250 laboratories and research groups, EPFL is one of Europe’s most innovative and productive technology institutes. Prospective and established scientists come from all over the world to work in the laboratories.

Benefit

  • The close integration of occupational healthcare and health and safety with other SAP components makes sense not only for economic reasons but also for compliance reasons since it makes it easier to fulfil regulatory requirements.

  • Staff in the laboratories profit from even greater protection against potential risks than before, internal processes can be developed more easily and cost-effectively, and national and international laws and regulations are followed automatically.
