Facilitating Risk Management for the Construction Industry

Construction sites are dangerous work areas. Protecting your workers and creating a safe environment requires organizations to go beyond minimum safety regulations. 

Construction sites include individuals at different levels of experience, however, qualifying and training every worker can be a slow and labor-intensive process. 

Crew and suppliers are constantly changing on sites, so quality and standards can vary. Even during the normal course of work, processes can be overlooked and risks can increase if contractors are not efficiently trained. 

In an ultra-competitive market, one incident on site can negatively impact your business and reputation—leading to losses in profit, customer loyalty and investment. 

Companies must ensure that not only are their own employees meeting certain safety compliance requirements but also their contractors and suppliers. Avetta’s construction risk management software helps properly vet suppliers and contractors, ensuring they have the necessary insurance, safety programs, training and qualifications required for the job.  

Avetta’s Worker Management solution makes it easy to verify individual worker qualifications and provide online training for faster induction—ensuring qualified individuals are performing the jobs across all functions.  

Construction sites have suppliers and contractors coming and going. Switching to Avetta’s construction EHS software helps improve quality on sites by identifying and prequalifying the high performing contractors and suppliers who are compliant to your standards. 

Brand reputation is critical to growing a business. Avoiding risk and managing reputational threats are key to maintaining your positive reputation and meaningful engagement with stakeholders.
