Injuries and incidents on the job cost the U.S. construction industry $167 billion in 2021, including productivity losses and administrative costs. At the same time, more than 42 percent of construction firms still use spreadsheets for managing their safety programs.

This infographic examines the four key reasons construction firms struggle to reduce injuries and incidents on the job, as well as the five key benefits to implementing safety management software that supports frontline workers with data for leading indicators. You will learn about the following:

• How poor safety culture leads to lack of worker engagement on the job site.
• How poor data management increases the safety risk to construction workers.
• How a digital safety solution can improve engagement, help attract new talent and contribute to lower injury rates.

As construction projects become larger in scale, they often involve the participation of multiple employers or organizations, further adding to the complexity of managing these projects and ensuring worker safety. As such, complying with the latest ANSI/ASSP A10.33-2020 standard, which focuses on reducing hazards at multi-employer construction job sites, becomes more than critical.

Initiate the process of reducing these hazards by downloading A Checklist for Safety Professionals on Multi-Employer Construction Sites, which includes insights from ANSI A10.33-2020 standard experts Richard Hislop and Shawn Bradfield. Get ready to learn:

• What measures to take to ensure compliance with ANSI/ASSP A10.33-2020.
• The importance of officially designating an occupational safety and health owner and carrying out daily planning practices.
• The key elements to use to develop and manage safety processes within a multi-organization safety program.

The construction industry has many unique safety challenges, such as a complex environment, threats that change as the project evolves and the integration of temporary workers into the safety culture. In addition to this, many construction workers have often resisted using digital tools for important tasks like safety observations, preferring instead traditional methods like paper forms.

Yet the world of data can transform construction safety to help prevent incidents before they happen. With a digital safety management system built on Intelex, construction organizations can work to ensure every frontline worker understands the risks of the work environment and can contribute to a healthy safety culture.

This Insight Report examines how digital safety solutions from Intelex can help construction organizations transform their approach to safety. You will learn about the following:

• How data that supports leading indicators can prevent incidents before they happen.
• How to use a digital safety management system to create a proactive safety culture and empower frontline workers.
• How Intelex safety management solutions can help you improve your construction safety culture.
