COVE Partners with Benchmark Gensuite to Enhance Safety Program Effectiveness Through Visual Literacy

Benchmark Gensuite partners with COVE to enhance safety program effectiveness through visual literacy training

Enhancing Workplace Safety

At COVE, we’ve always believed that SEEING is the foundation of safety. That principle is now at the center of our exciting new partnership with Benchmark Gensuite, a leader in Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) software solutions. As announced in a recent press release, this collaboration brings visual literacy principles into EHS programs, helping organizations uncover hidden hazards, strengthen risk management, and build a proactive safety culture.
 

Why Visual Literacy is Essential

Research reveals that “failure to see” a hazard contributes to 24–32% of workplace incidents. By enhancing workers’ ability to observe and interpret their environment, visual literacy training addresses this critical safety gap.
This partnership integrates COVE’s Visual Literacy expertise with Benchmark Gensuite’s robust EHS platform, enabling organizations to improve processes such as:
  • Safety observations
  • Pre-job safety checks
  • Incident reporting
  • Hazard assessments
Through experiential training, employees learn to see more clearly, think critically, and take action, making safety practices more effective than ever.
 

Merging Technology and Training

The integration of visual literacy tools into Benchmark Gensuite’s mobile-friendly EHS platform empowers workers to identify hazards, report them in real-time, and collaborate on solutions seamlessly.

Doug Pontsler, COVE’s Chairman and Managing Director, echoed this sentiment: “By combining visual literacy training with Benchmark Gensuite’s powerful platform, teams can quickly identify and address gaps in safety processes, proactively preventing incidents.”
