SafeSite uses an interconnected ecosystem of BLE wearables, sirens and gateways that are powered by an advanced analytics dashboard and allow real-time worker visibility through integrated smart sensing.
The solution helps construction site owners to access data analytics that are critical in tackling safety violations and bridging workers' knowledge gaps at the worksite. The solutions also help in shaping workers' behavioral patterns to reduce safety risks with targeted training.
Howard How, Boustead Projects’ Director (Environmental, Health & Safety), said: "Since deploying SafeSite, we have seen improvements in workers' behavior on-site and have uncovered unforeseen safety gaps using the system. The solution has helped us tremendously in identifying risky blind spots at our job sites.”
TraceSafe's solutions are built to solve safety and efficiency needs at construction sites of all scales and sizes. Some of the key safety features that are part of the SafeSite solution are anti-entrapment alert; moving machinery alert; road construction safety alert; barricaded machinery alert, and other similar warnings.
"Over the last two years, we've continued to see how businesses, and industries are using technology in new ways to address specific and emerging health and safety problems,” TraceSafe’s Ong said.
“SafeSite is a truly game changing solution for industry leaders to avoid accidents and other safety risks at construction sites. The award is proof of the meaningful impact of our solution and motivates us to continue developing value-focused innovative solutions that can be executed at scale," she added.
