Problem:
Latex allergies and adverse reactions to product that contain latex had become a serious issue for one of our client. Many PPE items that were ordered to protect workers were in fact putting them in danger. Our client needed a way to eliminate the opportunities for their workers to order these products.
Consideration:
Our clients employees needed products that were latex free but still were comfortable, useful, and met all of the necessary standards for safety. The first thing that we needed to accomplish was to replace all products that contained latex with acceptable equivalent products that were latex free. The next step was to eliminate the opportunity for these unapproved items to be purchased.
Solution:
Quest®’s web based online ordering system proved to be just what was needed to eliminate this opportunity. Only products approved by our client’s safety team were placed on their custom web catalog. This served as a safeguard to these products as they were able to identify which products contained latex and which did not and simply not allow the latex products to be listed in their catalog. Quest®’s product experts were able to serve as a backup system as well. Requests by their employees for products which contained latex were quickly identified by our experts and that information relayed to both the requester and their safety team.
Quest® is committed to keeping our clients and their employees safe. Through proper procedures and safeguards Quest® can help reduce these opportunities which endanger your most important asset, your employees.
