• Zero Injury Projects
  Foster proactive risk management and safety processes on site and most importantly, send workers home safely each day.
  
  
• Increased Profit through Lowered Injury and Insurance Costs
  The reduction of recordable injury and Experience Modification Rates (EMR) can simultaneously lower insurance costs and create a more advantageous position in bidding situations.
  
  
• Avoid Unwanted Expenses
  By minimizing or eliminating the likelihood of OSHA or other regulatory fines, as well as civil lawsuits, companies can avoid unwanted expenses and the associated negative publicity.
  
  
• Accurately Assess and Evaluate Sub-contractors
  Continuously monitoring sub-contractor performance is key to pinpointing areas of improvement, identifying troubled sub-contractors and preventing worker injuries.
  
  
• Increase Stakeholder Recognition as a Company that is Committed to Safety
  A proactive safety program helps companies to strengthen their business reputation with stakeholders because they have demonstrated a commitment to worker safety and protection. Our clients use their safety program to more effectively differentiate themselves from peers in terms of culture, action and leadership.

The SafetyNet system reinforces individual participation and competency. By urging participants to focus on the positive dimensions of job site safety in addition to those areas requiring action, an unbiased portrait of the safety landscape can be generated. The result is a realistic appraisal of current jobsite safety conditions based on leading risk indicators that point you to specific focus areas for improvement and training.

• Benchmark Your Company's and Subcontractors' Performance
  By ascertaining your current safety performance-against other contractors and the rest of the industry-in 19 specific safety areas, you can determine areas where training is needed, or recognize excellence in your effort to continuously improve business processes. You can also benchmark your sub-contractors' performance-across different projects and against other sub-contractors and use the findings to create an effective model for predicting and preventing claims.
  
  
• Transform Data into Real-time Business Intelligence
  Banish the paperwork quagmire and capture real-time observations as issues occur. Historical data that previously served no purpose beyond the individual safety meeting is now a resource for identifying trends that can provide leading risk indicators across the project or your entire company.
  
  
• Documented Evidence of a Proactive Safety Program
  Scheduled and consistent reports ranging from Project Summary, Contractor Analysis to Benchmarking reports help you present and share information in a concise, condensed format, ensuring that all parties are aware of open issues and trouble areas while there is still time to take preventative action. Documentation of completed safety inspections and associated reports also provide evidence that you are in compliance with OSHA and other regulatory guidelines.
  
  
• Quickly Identify Negative Trends before Incidents or Accidents Occur
  Capture real-time observations minutes after occurrence. Historical data that previously served no purpose beyond the individual safety meeting is now a source for identifying trends that can provide leading risk indicators across the project or your entire company.
  
  
• Increase Accountability
  Observations can be linked to unique people, companies, work areas or projects, allowing leadership to track participation, competency and consistency. Using advanced analytics and automatic report distribution, SafetyNet allows management to have up-to-the-minute results without the administrative costs or time delays.
