The state of construction safety

An industry at a crossroads... but not everyone sees the same path forward.

71% of construction companies are caught in a "digital limbo" - trying to balance paper-based traditions with modern solutions. Sounds challenging, right? But here's where it gets interesting: while 79% of safety managers have embraced digital safety solutions, only 40% of workers have access to these tools.

We're seeing a critical gap between safety intentions and safety realities. Companies are investing in digital solutions, but the implementation often creates more complexity than clarity. When safety information is scattered across multiple systems, it's not just inefficient - it's potentially dangerous.

How to save costs by investing in prevention

One head injury claim now costs US construction companies on average $94,285. That's because for each $1 of insured costs, the uninsured costs range from $9-$41 (!!). By lowering incidents and the aftermath, premiums go down, and many contractors can save up to $2000 per worker. Imagine having 1000 employees, that's a lot of money left on the table.

For each $1 of insured costs, uninsured costs range from $9-$41, which means one head injury costs, on average, $94,285 for US contractors in direct and indirect costs.
Save up to $2000 per employee by investing in prevention that connects workers and safety managers through one, integrated system.
