Deploying 12-Module English Safety E-Learning Suite for a Global Fiber-Based Materials Leader
-
The Premise
Ahlstrom-Munksjö, a world-class manufacturer of sustainable fiber-based materials, operates a SEZ unit at Mundra, Gujarat, where regulatory compliance, worker safety, and operational training are pivotal to maintaining international standards. To elevate their internal training practices, the company turned to CORE-EHS to design and implement an English-language digital safety learning suite, supported by robust tracking and reporting.
The objective was to introduce standardized, scalable, and auditable e-learning modules for all operational staff and contractors—especially those in high-risk roles.
-
The Challenges
While Ahlstrom-Munksjö was already committed to high EHS standards, there were pressing gaps in training delivery:
- Existing sessions were manual and inconsistent, with trainers often tailoring content ad hoc.
- English was required as the official training language due to international compliance expectations, but current materials lacked professional polish.
- No centralized system existed to track participation or generate learning reports, risking audit inefficiencies.
- Periodic knowledge gaps led to safety issues—nearly 1 in 3 near-misses were tied to inadequate understanding of key safety procedures.
The company needed a complete safety learning system, in English, with transparent usage and reporting metrics.
-
The Solution
CORE-EHS, delivered a comprehensive 12-module e-learning suite, designed in professional English and hosted on a platform with active learner tracking and admin access.
Key Modules Delivered:
- Process Safety
- Warehouse Safety
- Electrical Safety
- Defensive Driving Techniques
- Machine Guarding & Operator Safety
- LOTOTO
- Fall Protection / Work at Height
- Foundations in Health & Safety (IGC1)
- Accident Investigation & Prevention
- Gas Safety
- Confined Space Risk Management
- Work Equipment – Hazards & Controls
Features:
- Clean, industry-specific animation and scripting in English.
- Fully online delivery with one admin login and 100 user accounts.
- Automated daily tracking dashboard for learner progress.
- Monthly reporting for audit and documentation compliance.
- 9-month platform validity for repeatable training and reinforcement learning.
The program was tailored for SEZ regulatory frameworks, delivered as a zero-rated supply under IGST Section 2(23) read with Section 16.

Resulting Benefits
The launch of the e-learning suite marked a significant shift in how Ahlstrom-Munksjö handled internal safety learning:
- Course completion rate reached 89% in the first 60 days, a massive jump from the 42% previously recorded through manual training.
- Training session time dropped by 47%, allowing shift managers more flexibility without sacrificing content depth.
- The platform produced monthly learning reports with 100% accuracy, now used as part of site audit submissions.
- Feedback from plant supervisors showed a 61% improvement in worker confidence when responding to safety incidents.
- The company now has a replicable model to roll out similar training to other sites and subcontractor teams.
This digital transformation positioned Ahlstrom-Munksjö as a leader in SEZ-compliant e-learning adoption for industrial safety.
