Safety Technology Guide


Associated Builders and Contractors issued its online Safety Technology Guide, a resource for contractors looking to implement construction technology for the best safety performance.



The Safety Tech Guide details how to identify, choose and implement technology to achieve a safer and more efficient jobsite. Best practices include the following:


  • Start small, testing technology on one or two projects before rolling it out across all jobs.

  • Assign a technology champion who is responsible for successfully implementing the technology.

  • Understand technology must be a priority.

  • Celebrate small wins and recognize success on any scale when innovating.

  • Strategize a rollout to meet end users where they are.

  • Identify necessary training for any technology and how that will be completed.

  • Create opportunities for employees to connect with one another to strengthen a more inclusive culture, improve safety and raise efficiency with technology.
