BotSpan Industrial Safety Services

The Robot Safety Experts™

Help Every
Organization Safely Navigate the Robotic
Revolution.

We help organizations safely integrate robots into their operations. Risk assessments. Compliance. Training. Procedures. Ongoing support. Everything built around your facility, your workforce, and your robots.

ISO 10218:2025 changed the compliance rules in February 2025. OSHA enforces every robot incident under the General Duty Clause — with no robot-specific standard to guide employers. Your workers are in the robot’s operating zone every day. BotSpan fixes that. Real robot. Live scenarios. Built around your facility. Workers leave RoboReady™.

What We Do

Robot Safety.
Every Layer.

From initial risk assessment to ongoing monthly compliance monitoring, BotSpan covers the full lifecycle of safe robot deployment. We don't just identify the problem — we document it, fix it, and train your team.

All services delivered by credentialed BotSpan team members — not subcontracted to a generalist firm.

Why BotSpan Specifically

Built on real-world robot safety experience.

The BotSpan team led robot and automation safety programs at Amazon and Disney before most organizations even considered robots a workplace hazard. We bring that operational experience directly to your facility. Every engagement is customized to your specific robots, your floor plan, and your workforce. Not a generic template from a firm that added robotics to a menu.

The Reality

If You Have Robots on Your Floor,
the Clock Is Already Running.

Scale of Exposure
393K+

Robots currently deployed in US facilities under safety assumptions that became obsolete when ISO 10218-1:2025 published in February 2025.

The Human Cost
77

Severe robot injuries reported to OSHA in 7 years (2015–2022) — hospitalizations only. Near-misses are never tracked. 78% of robot fatalities occur while the robot is operating normally.

The Enforcement Reality
General
Duty Clause

OSHA has no robot-specific standard. Every incident is investigated under the General Duty Clause §5(a)(1). OSHA inspectors use ISO 10218 to define “recognized hazard.” Not following ISO is your citation.

Liability & Insurance
$171B

Annual cost of workplace injuries to US employers. Post-incident coverage disputes increasingly turn on whether you followed ISO 10218 consensus standards. Non-compliance weakens your defense and drives premiums higher.

Training Methodology

The BotSpan
REACT Method™

“We’ve sat through the standard safety training too. That’s why we built something different. Real robot. Live scenarios. Built around your facility and culture. Workers leave RoboReady™.”

Not a slide deck. Not a signature sheet.
Real training.

HOW IT WORKS

“The REACT Method™ puts a real robot in the room, runs workers through live scenarios specific to your facility, and sends supervisors home with a 90-day reinforcement program. Workers leave RoboReady™ — not just signed off.”

See the REACT Method™ in Action
R
Robot-Integrated
A real robot is in the room. Workers see a 77-pound bipedal machine stop when they enter the zone. No slide achieves this.
E
Experiential
Workers do something — they don't watch. Adults retain 75% of what they do versus 5% of what they hear.
A
Applied to Your Facility
Scenarios built from your actual robot zone and FMEA. Not a generic warehouse. Your warehouse.
C
Compliant
ISO 10218:2025, OSHA GDC §5(a)(1), ANSI/A3 R15.06-2025. Documentation and certificates provided.
T
Transfer to the Job
The REACT Leader Pack™ — three pre-built reinforcement modules supervisors deliver at safety meetings for 90 days. Zero prep required.
Training Programs

Built for Every Role
in the Operating Zone.

The Compliance Event
Feb
2025

ISO 10218-1:2025 published. Every existing cobot deployment became potentially non-compliant overnight.

393,700 robots are deployed in US facilities under safety assumptions that became obsolete when ISO 10218-1:2025 published in February 2025 — and most organizations don't know it. BotSpan is the only independent expert helping organizations assess, document, and certify compliance before OSHA shows up.

Who This Affects

If You Have Robots
on Your Floor,
This Is Your Problem.

Every organization deploying industrial robots, cobots, or humanoid robots in North America faces new compliance obligations under ISO 10218:2025. Most haven't acted yet.

  • OSHA has no robot-specific standard — that makes it more dangerous, not less. Every incident is investigated under the General Duty Clause, with ISO 10218 as the benchmark. Non-compliance is your citation. (OSHA.gov)
  • 78% of robot fatalities happen while the robot operates normally — not malfunctioning. Training and zone design prevent this. (NIOSH/AJIM 2023)
  • 77 severe robot injuries reported to OSHA in just 7 years — and those are only hospitalizations. Near-misses go entirely untracked. (NC State/OSHA SIR 2024)
  • Your insurer is paying attention. Post-incident coverage disputes increasingly turn on whether you followed ISO 10218 consensus standards.
