ASSP Safety 2026: VelocityEHS announces QR Codes for Incident Management

VelocityEHS launched QR Codes for Incident Management, developed to enhance safety reporting, at the Safety 2026 Conference & Expo.

The show is being hosted by The American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) June 15-17 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California.

The feature aims to help companies surface incidents and near misses quicker, as well as identify risk more clearly. By enabling instant, mobile access to reporting tools through a QR code scan, the feature can help enable more accurate incident reporting.

No login required, trigger real-time notifications

QR Codes for Incident Management equips employees, contractors, and temporary workers with access to submit reports quickly without logging in.

“Organizations can’t fix what they can’t see,” said Julia Wong, VelocityEHS Senior Director, Head of Product. “QR Codes for Incident Management removes the traditional barriers to reporting by meeting workers where they are. With instant access to mobile-friendly reporting, companies can capture critical safety data earlier and act before risks escalate.”

Featured as part of VelocityEHS' product innovation showcase at AASP Safety 2026, the new feature offers mobile-optimized forms and guided workflows to ensure submissions are fast, accurate, and require little to no training, reducing missed or delayed reports.

All submissions captured through QR Codes for Incident Management are automatically integrated into existing incident management workflows, triggering real-time notifications and corrective actions. This integration enables immediate visibility, consistent follow-through, and more accountability across teams.

Standardized data collection enhances reporting accuracy and provides organizations with deeper insights into risk trends.

“Speed and simplicity are essential when it comes to effective incident management,” said Marc Juaire, senior director, head of Product, VelocityEHS and certified safety leader. “By streamlining how incidents are reported and automatically routing that data into existing workflows, we’re helping organizations respond faster, standardize processes, and ultimately create safer workplaces.”

Supports 30 languages to help reduce underreporting

Designed for scalability, the feature enables organizations to deploy and manage QR codes across multiple sites, with centralized control and built-in configurations.

The QR Code form supports 30 languages, enhancing the scalability and access to the feature, which helps ensure consistent adoption while maintaining flexibility across work environments.

By capturing incident data, organizations can reduce underreporting, strengthen compliance efforts, and be more proactive in workplace safety.
