Limelight Sports realised their paper-based induction system was inefficient and took up a considerable amount of team members’ time. Having to induct hundreds of staff verbally was simply not feasible given a short timespan for each event. On top of time inefficiency, by relying on verbal instructions and paper-based filing, inductions managed by Limelight Sports Group were open to natural human error and inconsistencies. Therefore, they decided to investigate a better solution to save time while improving quality and consistency of inductions.
Solution
Upon realising that their paper-based induction system was not working, Limelight Sports Group began undertaking research to find a better solution and having heard GetOnSite was used successfully for other sporting events, they made contact to book a demo.
Benefits
By removing repetitive face-to-face inductions and replacing them with an online solution hosted by GetOnSite, Limelight Sports Group were able to save a considerable amount of time, without compromising on quality. Inductions were consistent and human error was eradicated. The time saved could then be used on maximising event success. Additional benefits included:
- Flexibility within the platform to tailor inductions to suit different events.
- Ability of GetOnSite to accommodate last-minute changes to inductions and training sessions as needed.
- COVID-19 guidance could be shared and updated with contractors prior to them attending site.
“The whole team has been very easy to work with and accommodating to our requirements. Both Victoria Schlesinger and Rebekah Yarranton deserve special mention in their assistance to onboarding the platform.” Jamie Rose, Production & Logistics Manager
Results
Apart from the mentioned (and considerable) time savings, Limelight Sports Group has been impressed with the simplicity of the platform and how easy it is to share with the wider team. Feedback from team members and inductees has been extremely positive.
Limelight Sports Group now uses GetOnSite across the whole company and for all major campaigns. Reasons for this include:
- Time efficiency compared to a manual paper-based induction process.
- Offers a usable platform to manage both the induction process and induction logs
- Provides useful information and contacts for all parties entering their event sites.
