AEM Safety Materials Available Through SafetyAtlas Platform

MILWAUKEE - The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) announced today that its industry-developed Safety Manuals are now available through the National Safety Council (NSC) SafetyAtlas(TM) platform, expanding access to trusted equipment safety resources for employers, safety professionals, equipment operators and workforce training programs.

SafetyAtlas is a centralized hub for safety training, credentials, resources and services from NSC and a network of nonprofit and industry partners. The platform helps organizations discover and manage safety training and resources through a single online experience.

Through a newly formalized partnership with NSC, AEM is making its Safety Manuals available through SafetyAtlas, providing an additional channel for organizations seeking resources that reinforce safe equipment operation and risk management practices. The manuals can also support new-operator onboarding, refresher training and ongoing safety education. AEM Safety Materials have supported equipment safety initiatives for more than 50 years and are used throughout the construction, agriculture and utility equipment industries.

"AEM Safety Materials are designed to help equipment users operate and maintain machinery safely while reinforcing the safety messages manufacturers provide through their operation and maintenance manuals," said Jaime Vos, AEM Senior Director of Safety Materials. "By making these resources available through NSC SafetyAtlas, we are expanding access to trusted safety information and helping more organizations strengthen their safety culture."

The collaboration reflects a shared commitment by AEM and NSC to advance workplace and equipment safety through education, awareness and continuous improvement. Through the partnership, the materials can reach a broader audience through NSC's extensive safety-focused network.

"AEM's mission is to help build a safer industry for everyone who works with and around our members' equipment," said John Somers, AEM Vice President, Construction & Utility Sectors. "Partnering with the National Safety Council through SafetyAtlas enables us to connect more equipment users with practical resources that support safer job sites."

AEM Safety Manuals are consensus-based resources developed, reviewed and approved with input from equipment manufacturers and industry experts. The manuals cover the preparation, safe operation and maintenance of off-highway equipment and are designed to complement, not replace, OEM operation and maintenance manuals. AEM's collection includes manuals for more than 50 specific types of equipment.

The partnership represents an important step in AEM's ongoing efforts to modernize and expand access to safety resources. It complements the recent launch of AEM's redesigned online Safety Materials store and supports the association's broader commitment to advancing industry best practices, reducing risk and improving workplace safety outcomes.
