“By partnering with ISN, we can more consistently manage compliance across various local and federal regulations while maintaining safety standards throughout North America,” said Patty Goclowski, Director, Health, Safety & Environmental (HSE) at FirstLight. “Implementing ISNetworld at additional FirstLight sites in Canada helps enable staff to focus on activities on-site while ensuring contractors meet both regulatory and insurance requirements before arrival, upholding rigorous safety expectations.”
