Safetyvue presents at Facility Managers Meeting

Our thanks to Safetyvue for presenting during our first Facility Managers Meeting of the year at our Elizabethtown headquarters.


The meeting opened with updates from EHCIF President Andy Games. Against the backdrop of recent mass layoffs at BlueOval SK following the decision to dissolve the joint venture between Ford and SK On, Games recognized the swift and coordinated response of state and local workforce professionals. These partners organized multiple rapid response sessions and a job fair to connect impacted employees with employment opportunities and training resources.


EHCIF has collaborated closely with organizations such as the Lincoln Trail Area Development District, Kentucky Career Center–Lincoln Trail, Elizabethtown Community and Technical College and the Hardin County Chamber of Commerce to support workers as Ford navigates transitions at the battery park.
Games also acknowledged the official retirement of former President and later Vice President Rick Games, who will transition into the role of Emeritus Board Member after many years of dedicated service to the Foundation and the economic development of the region.


During Safetyvue’s presentation, co-founders Tim and Chelsie Wolter outlined the company’s AI-integrated software solutions designed to help construction operations and industrial facilities strengthen and streamline their safety efforts. Based in Elizabethtown, Safetyvue offers a suite of tools, including data-driven insights that transform raw safety information into real-time visibility, predictive alerts, and actionable reports, as well as hyper-realistic safety training simulators and a Learning Management System that assigns, tracks, and manages training for every worker across every site in one centralized platform.


Using Safetyvue’s augmented reality technology, clients can scan their work environments while the AI engine identifies potential hazards, cross-references them with a comprehensive database of OSHA standards, and generates a complete, audit-ready analysis report. The company’s Vera AI also provides Compliance Gating, delivering real-time guidance for safer job assignments along with proactive safety recommendations.
