PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS
Already a member somewhere else? That counts here
Most manufacturers already belong to something. An industry association, a safety association, a sector body, a regional manufacturers' group. You pay dues, you go to the meetings, and you get training, standards, advocacy and a room full of people with the same problems.
We think that should count for something here.
If your plant belongs to one of the organizations on this page, you qualify for Member of Both: our enhanced tier. You don't pay more and you don't do anything different. You tell us where else you belong, we verify it once, and your benefits go up.
Why: an operation that has already committed to an association has decided that standards, training and a peer group are worth paying for. That's the premise SafeIT is built on, so it seems reasonable to reward it rather than ignore it.
What this page is not. These are independent organizations. Being listed here means we extend benefits to their members. It does not mean they endorse SafeIT, recommend us, or have any commercial arrangement with us that affects their members. Their programs are their own. Ours are ours.
It's also separate from our technology partners, the vendors whose products sit inside the service. Different list, different purpose.
Organizations on our list
Manufacturing Safety Alliance of BC
Canada
More organizations are being added as agreements are signed, in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany. If yours is not here yet and you would like it to be, read what associations get.
Don't see yours? Tell us who you belong to and we'll look at adding them. We'd rather grow this list by request than guess.
What members of a partner organization get
Two different things, and it is worth being clear which is which.
If you belong to a listed partner organization, you get Partner Access
It is free, it does not require you to buy anything, and it does not make you a SafeIT member. It is a free account with the complete generic shelf on it.
| Partner Access, free | Why we can give it away |
|---|---|
| A standing invitation to every monthly briefing | Broadcast. One production cost, however many people attend |
| Briefing recordings and slides | Already produced |
| The complete generic resource library: all policies, posters, toolbox talks, checklists, quick-reference cards and guidebooks, unbranded | Files that already exist. A Community account gets a selection; Partner Access gets the whole shelf |
| The 16-policy pack as a welcome gift, generic and unbranded | A one-time delivery of files we have already written |
| The newsletter | Already written |
| All self-serve tools: the readiness self-check, the downtime cost calculator | Self-serve by definition |
| The free IT & security assessment | Already open to everyone. Listed for completeness, not as an exclusive |
What Partner Access does not include, because these consume advisor hours, licence seats or a chair in a room: advisor time in any form, customization of any document to your plant, roundtable seats, live training seats and phishing simulation runs, gap assessments and evidence packages, Cork coverage, and support of any kind.
Those are part of membership, which is a paid IT service. Not a policy preference on our part, a cost fact. Broadcast scales, so it can be open. The closed room is membership.
If you are a SafeIT member and belong to a listed partner organization, you are Member of Both. That is an uplift on the paid service:
| Benefit | Member | Member of Both |
|---|---|---|
| Free IT & security assessment | Once | Plus a free re-assessment every year |
| Cork coverage | Standard tier | Enhanced coverage |
| Support response target, the time we commit to in writing | Standard SLA | Priority SLA |
| Roundtables and events | Open seats | Reserved seats |
| Recognition badge for your site and your website | Not included | Co-branded recognition badge |
| Onboarding fee | Waived | Waived |
Two honest notes on that table.
Everything here comes with membership
Cork coverage and the SLA attach to the service, and membership is the service, so they attach as soon as onboarding is complete.
The badge is co-branded between you and SafeIT
It recognises your plant. It is not the association's badge and does not represent their program, their certification or their endorsement.
How to claim
Partner Access, free, three steps
1. Get your code from your association
It is in their member newsletter and their member portal. If you cannot find it, ask them. It is their code and their list, not ours. We never see your membership number and we never ask an association for their member list.
2. Create a free account
Name, company, work email. About two minutes. No payment details are requested at any point.
3. Enter the code
We check the code and switch Partner Access on within one business day, then email you. The complete generic library unlocks and the 16-policy pack lands in your downloads. Briefing invitations start with the next session.
No verification call, no payment details, no annual re-application. If your association membership lapses, tell us and we will move you back to a standard Community account rather than quietly leaving you where you are.

Member of Both, if you are already a SafeIT member
Tell your advisor which association you belong to and give us your membership number. We verify it once, usually within two business days, and the uplift switches on. There is nothing to re-apply for after that.
For association executives
If you run an association, a sector body or a safety organization serving manufacturers or food processors, we'd like to talk.
The proposition is straightforward: a real member benefit that costs your organization nothing.
What your members get, free
Partner Access: a standing invitation to every monthly briefing, the recordings and slides, the complete generic resource library, the 16-policy pack as a welcome gift, the newsletter and the self-serve tools. None of it requires them to buy anything, and none of it makes them a SafeIT member. On top of that, the free IT and security assessment is open to them, as it is to anyone.
What your organization gets
This is the part that matters to whoever reports to your board.
| What you receive | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| A monthly programming slot filled, at no cost | Twelve sessions of member content you did not have to produce or pay for |
| A co-branded registration page you can link from your calendar | It looks like your programming, because it is |
| An attendance and engagement report after every session | Board-reportable member engagement numbers |
| A member-wide welcome gift | The full generic policy pack to every one of your members. One announcement, and you get the credit |
| Topic veto | Decline any topic, without explanation |
| Right of first review on anything sent to your members | No surprises with your name near them |
| A written no-pitch commitment | Protects you from the complaint you would otherwise wear |
| Recognition here, at equal weight with every other partner | Reciprocal, and never presented as your endorsement |
What it costs you
Nothing. No fee, no revenue share, no exclusivity, no contract term, no obligation to promote us, and no requirement that you endorse us. Nothing to take to a board for approval. If you would rather it sat quietly on a member-benefits page and nowhere else, that is fine.
The no-pitch rule, in writing
No product pitch, no vendor slides, and no follow-up sales call to any of your members unless they ask for one. That is not a tone we aim for, it is a rule we operate, and it is the one thing that would take the whole arrangement apart if we broke it.
What we ask of you
Permission to describe your members as eligible for Partner Access, a link from your channels to their partner page, and the ability to say you are a listed partner organization. Nothing more. No endorsement, no exclusivity, and we never ask for your member list.
Where we operate
Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany. Regional and national bodies both work.
Talk to us about your members → /contact/: mark it as a partnership enquiry and it goes straight to the team, not to a sales queue.
What this means for your plant If you already belong to an industry association, you qualify for more here at no extra cost. Member of Both adds enhanced Cork coverage, a priority SLA, a free annual re-assessment and reserved seats. One verification, once. Then it just applies.
