VelocityEHS to Showcase its Industry-Leading Technologies at Chicagoland Safety Conference

CHICAGO, Sept. 11, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- VelocityEHS, the global leader in cloud-based environment, health, safety (EHS) and sustainability solutions, will host a series of workshops to share the company's wide range of EHS expertise with attendees at the Chicagoland Safety, Health & Environmental Conference. The company will also demonstrate—through its recently acquired Humantech brand ergonomics software solutions—a faster, easier, and more accurate way to complete a musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risk assessment using its new, sensorless, motion-capture technology. Demonstrations of this new technology will take place at the Humantech booth during exposition hours.

The Chicagoland conference brings together EHS professionals to provide training on improving worker safety and ensuring regulatory compliance. The VelocityEHS sessions focus on two key areas of concern for today's EHS professionals: GHS compliance and industrial ergonomics, led by VelocityEHS experts from its MSDSonline chemical management and Humantech ergonomics solutions.
