Topic:
“The Next Generation: Taking Safety Performance to a Higher Level”
Up until the 1970s and the advent of OSHA, safety issues in the construction industry were commonplace. Following the implementation of stricter safety policies and regulations, the industry has made step change improvements, reducing incidents by driving safety culture and performance metrics. Driving the next step change will be due to advances in digital capabilities as opposed to further human behavior improvements, although it will require changes in culture and behavior to adapt new, digital operating models that go well beyond safety. This presentation will discuss the industry recommendations needed to drive successful digital transformation and the digital tools available today that will help strive the next generation.
