<p><em>(Launched in the October 2025 Edition of the WSHAsia e-Magazine)</em></p>



<p>Singapore, October 2025 – World of Safety &amp; Health Asia (WSHAsia) has officially introduced its <em>Support the Mission</em> initiative, a community-driven effort designed to ensure that safety knowledge remains freely accessible to every Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) professional across the Asia Pacific region. The initiative was first unveiled in the October 2025 issue of the WSHAsia e-Magazine and is now being highlighted across WSHAsia’s digital platforms.&nbsp;</p>



<p>For years, WSHAsia has been guided by a simple but powerful belief:&nbsp;</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p><strong>“You can’t prevent what you don’t know”</strong></p>
</blockquote>



<p>From the beginning, the WSHAsia e-Magazine has been offered at no cost, providing open access to safety insights, industry trends, expert contributions, and real-world stories that help organisations strengthen their workplace safety culture.</p>



<p></p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Born From the Community’s Voice</strong></h3>



<p>The <em>Support the Mission</em> initiative began after receiving numerous messages from readers who shared how the free publication improved their safety practices, enhanced team training, or helped spark new ideas within their organisations.</p>



<p>Many expressed a desire to support WSHAsia’s mission out of appreciation for the positive impact that accessible OSH knowledge has brought to their work.</p>



<p>Rather than creating a paywall or subscription model, WSHAsia chose a different path, <strong>an open invitation for the community to stand behind the mission of keeping safety knowledge free, inclusive, and available to all.</strong></p>



<p></p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Strengthening a Shared Purpose</strong></h3>



<p><em>Support the Mission</em> is not about funding a magazine, it is about sustaining a movement.<br>Each expression of support helps WSHAsia:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Expand the reach of the e-Magazine across Asia Pacific</li>



<li>Continue delivering credible, practical, and life-saving OSH content every two months</li>



<li>Maintain open access for all readers, regardless of budget or geography</li>
</ul>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>“OSH knowledge should never be restricted. Every safety professional, from large corporations to frontline workers, deserves access to insights that can help save lives. This initiative is about keeping that door open.”</p>



<p><em>Raymond Wat, Founder of WSHAsia</em></p>
</blockquote>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Celebrating the Community Behind the Mission</strong></h3>



<p>To recognise those who stand behind the cause, all supporters will be acknowledged in upcoming issues. This acknowledgement symbolises the shared commitment of the OSH community, professionals united by a belief that safety knowledge must remain open, accessible, and empowering for all.</p>



<p></p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>A Continuing Call to Purpose</strong></h3>



<p>Ultimately, the mission is simple:</p>



<p><strong>To save lives through knowledge.<br>And to ensure that knowledge flows freely without barriers, limits, or cost.</strong></p>



<p><strong><em>Support the Mission</em> today: </strong><a href="https://wshasia.com/support-the-mission-keep-safety-knowledge-accessible/">https://wshasia.com/support-the-mission-keep-safety-knowledge-accessible/</a></p>

<p><em>Connected safety technology leader boosts investment in product testing, reliability for global market</em><br><br>Calgary, Canada,August 13, 2025 – <a href="https://investors.blacklinesafety.com/">Blackline Safety Corp. (TSX: BLN)</a>, a global leader in connected safety technology, has announced a major expansion of its quality assurance (QA) program. As part of the expansion, the company has increased its QA team, upgraded its inspection equipment, and boosted in-lab testing of its entire product line.<br><br>Headquartered in Canada with offices in the UK, France, U.S., and UAE, Blackline manufactures an award-winning line of connected safety <a href="https://www.blacklinesafety.com/solutions/personal-gas-detection/g7-multi-gas">wearables</a>&nbsp;and <a href="https://www.blacklinesafety.com/solutions/area-monitoring/exo">area gas monitors</a>, currently used by more than 2,200 organizations and protecting over 165,000 workers worldwide. Providing live monitoring, automatic incident alerts, and location-based insights, the technology helps teams respond faster, prevent incidents, and make informed decisions through real-time safety data.<br><br>“When most people think of safety technology, they think about the moment it matters – a gas leak detected, an SOS alert triggered, or a worker protected – but our team is focused on everything that leads up to that moment because protection starts on the bench, in the lab, and on the line,” said <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/blair-svoboda/">Blair Svoboda</a>, Director, Quality Assurance at Blackline Safety.<br><br>The expansion of Blackline’s QA program – which is conducted entirely in-house at the company’s manufacturing facility – builds on its historical investment of CDN $2 million in Surface Mount Technology (SMT) and advanced inspection tools to provide greater oversight and control throughout the entire production process. Automated state-of-the-art equipment tests product reliability (dock insertions, button presses, etc.) and ensures the devices are able to withstand water immersion, extreme temperatures, and dust penetration, which could potentially damage internal components.<br></p>

<p>“All of our quality assurance testing is done in true-to-life simulated environments just steps from the manufacturing floor to enable us to react in real time as needed – a process that just can’t be achieved when manufacturing is done elsewhere,” Svoboda said. He explained that Blackline’s global team of 35 quality assurance specialists – which has grown by more than 250% – runs a 68-point quality test on every single safety device before it ships, from testing radios, sensors and alarms, to conducting connectivity checks across cellular and satellite networks.<br><br>“Every test and check in our QA process comes down to one simple question: will this device keep someone safe when it counts?” Svoboda emphasized. “At Blackline, quality assurance isn’t about ticking boxes – it’s about protecting professionals like the lone worker in a remote oilfield, the firefighter charging into danger, or the technician maintaining a power grid in a storm.”</p>
