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.
