You’re not likely to have opened a business journal
within the past few years without seeing a reference to the latest
corporate buzzword, “Big Data.” Business intelligence and
predictive analytics will be a part of everyone’s jobs, if it is not
already. And no other area in businesses could benefit more
from using Big Data than safety departments. The safety field
collects a plethora of safety intelligence from safety observations
to near misses. Unfortunately, this critical safety intelligence
is often not used, misused or just plain ignored.
