    Key Features

    • Information Routing: The Safe Workplace Dashboard displays critical data by campus, including user health status, PPE inventory, and active contact tracing cases.
    • Required Applications: Installation of ServiceNow applications such as Emergency Self Report, Emergency Outreach with Employee Readiness Surveys, and Workplace PPE Inventory Management is necessary for functionality.
    • Building Definitions: Use the Space Administration module to define organization facilities, which support proximity screening and workspace reservations.
    • Location References: Ensure that all locations are correctly associated with campuses to enable accurate data display on the dashboard.

    Key Outcomes

    By following the outlined methods to create campuses—either through auto-mapping or manual association—users can ensure their Safe Workplace Dashboard accurately reflects their organization’s readiness and safety measures. This improves visibility into workplace safety and enhances response capabilities during public health concerns.

    You can create a campus from existing locations to appear on the Safe Workplace Dashboard.

    Route the following information to the Safe Workplace Dashboard and display this information by campus:
    • User health and willingness to return to work.
    • Building readiness.
    • Personal protective equipment inventory.
    • Active contact tracing cases.
    • Potentially exposed contacts under investigation.

    Ensure that you install and use the following applications for the Safe Workplace Dashboard. Each application has a reference to a location.

    • ServiceNow® Emergency Self Report references the location in the user's profile.
    • ServiceNow® Emergency Outreach with Employee Readiness Surveys installed. These applications reference the location in the user's profile.
    • ServiceNow® Workplace PPE Inventory Management has defined stockrooms, and the location is a required field for a stockroom.
    • ServiceNow® Employee Health Screening has a form for selecting a location and a user to submit the compliance values.
    • The Space Administration module of ServiceNow Workplace Core is where organization facilities are defined. Within a building, floors, areas, and workspaces are defined. These definitions provide for proximity screening, cleaning assignments, and workspace reservations.

      One or more buildings are assigned to a campus. The location icons displayed on the Safe Workplace Dashboard overview show the campus and any associated buildings when you point to an icon.

    • ServiceNow Contact Tracing references the affected person's campus from a case. If the campus information is not available, then Contact Tracing references the location in the affected person's user profile.
    Note:
    When selecting locations for users, stockrooms, and entry requests, select a company location that existed before you installed Workplace Core. Don't select a site, campus, or building created in the Workplace Core application.

    For Workplace PPE Inventory Management, Employee Health Screening, and others, the location must be tied to a Workplace Core campus or building for the location to appear on the Safe Workplace Dashboard.

    The locations [cmn_location] defined for the organization are the reference that Performance Analytics uses to generate alerts. Configure the building definitions in Workplace Core with a parent location and the corresponding latitude and longitude.

    To associate locations with infectious diseases, such as COVID-19 data, from the COVID-19 Global Health Data Set, verify that all locations are associated with a state or country.
