The moment something changes, you can adapt processes and procedures in a few clicks, with changes rolling out instantly to everyone on site.
“SafetyCulture has saved us about 1,500 man hours per year. That’s a huge efficiency gain.”
Prevent incidents and promote a safety culture
Encourage a supportive and inclusive culture where teams are comfortable reporting safety concerns and addressing potential risks. By making it easy for anyone to report observations, hazards, near misses, and incidents, you can respond quickly and put the right measures in place.
“Today, we’re at 2.5 million hours without a lost time injury. SafetyCulture allows us to achieve that. You don’t work 2.5 million hours and just be lucky.”
Receive immediate alerts for incident reports
Construction sites are inherently high-risk environments, which is why it’s important to have real-time alerts for any reported incidents. Easily view safety issues on your mobile device and swiftly take action onsite without delay.
Implement long-term incident prevention measures
Take advantage of comprehensive analytics tools to analyze incident reports, get to the root cause, and prevent recurrences. Compare reports to conduct investigations accurately and implement better safety policies and practices.
Consistently deliver safety updates across teams
Keep teams updated with proper instructions and training to prevent onsite incidents. Use Heads Up to conduct frequent toolbox talks for safety briefings to let teams know about commonly identified safety incidents and what to do in the event of an accident.
Drive improvement across every jobsite
“When I started at Coffey Testing we had 13 lost time injuries (LTIs) in that year, and for the last 4 years we haven’t had a single LTI because of our improved incident reporting, communication and management, which is great.”

Frequently Asked Questions
All stakeholders involved in a construction project can use incident management software. Workers primarily use it to report incidents and near-misses during their shifts. Meanwhile, foremen or Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) managers can take advantage of this software to gain better visibility over potential hazards present in the workplace and address incidents more effectively.
Technology improves incident management on construction sites by providing features that make it easier to monitor and predict hazards. Using technology like sensors allows for predictive maintenance and anticipation of potential safety concerns and reduces the downtime and likelihood of incidents.
Using the right software can help manage and address construction incidents such as the fatal four, which include falls, struck-by incidents, electrocution, and caught-in/between incidents. It is important to have the right software for these incidents, especially since the US Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that falls, slips, and trips have significantly increased the fatality rate among construction workers.
Generally, good construction incident management software provides the following features:
- Detailed Incident Logging
- Real-Time Alerts
- Customizable Workflows
- Integration Capabilities
- Comprehensive Reporting Tools
Moreover, it is highly recommended to choose a software tool that is accessible on different devices to make it convenient for reporting no matter the location of a construction site.
Incident management software can assist in maintaining compliance with safety regulations by tracking incidents and ensuring that corrective actions are taken. Additionally, platforms such as SafetyCulture have ready-made templates to help comply with regulatory requirements like the OSHA 300, 300A, and 301 for reporting incidents.
