Data is everywhere on a job site and in a project. But many construction firms aren't tapping this vast wealth of valuable insights because they don't have the digital tools to collect the data or can't afford the extra analytics module to access it. The result? One in three decisions are made from faulty or insufficient data. At Wijs, we believe it's important to make critical insights available to our clients so they can make better decisions. That's why we include reporting and analytics with our software, and we never charge our clients extra for it. It's part of what we call Health & Safety Intelligence. Wijs.ca #constructionsafety #safetyapp #safety #digitalsafety #wijs #wijssafety #riskmanagement #safetysoftware #OHSMS #duediligence #decisions #analytics #data #dataanalysis

Deal with subcontractors in your day-to-day ops? How many are safety savvy and can provide you their own safety docs? How many aren't so safety savvy and you have to help them along?

Safety culture is paramount. If you have a good system but a culture that doesn’t believe in using it, then your safety system isn't effective. The opposite is true as well. If you have a strong safety culture but your safety management system is cumbersome and time-consuming to execute, then it undermines your safety culture. Typical systems ask workers to do admin tasks when they aren’t wired to do them, or make doing the paperwork challenging, leaving it hard to keep up your safety culture. User-friendly safety software like Wijs removes a barrier to safety effectiveness by making it easier for the field, getting buy-in from your workers and reinforcing your safety culture.

Expanding the opportunities to share trade workers across the provinces is a great idea and much needed in construction, It will however bring its own challenges with different safety rules for new workers to follow. To set them up for success, it's important to make information sharing super easy, bring your new workers up to speed quickly, and garner a safety culture that makes safety a core value instead of a priority. Easy to learn and navigate safety software like Wijs can help remove some of the barriers and smooth the way for new workers. wijs.ca Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gxGgvpME #Construction #skilledtrades #Constructiontechnology #Canadianconstruction #Ontarioconstruction #Novascotiaconstruction #safetysoftware #constructionsafety #safetymanagement #wijs #wijshealth&safetyintelligence #wijssafetymanagement 

One more study validating that the construction industry lags in productivity. But this number doesn't tell the full story. There are many reasons behind lagging productivity, including an ageing workforce, a heavy regulatory regime, a complex ecosystem with low risk-reward for innovation, project uniqueness, and siloed data and decisions. So there is tremendous potential for innovation in the field. There are also big rewards for leaders who embrace the digital transformation. This report sponsored by @Trimble gives some great strategies for overcoming some of the challenges along the way. Let's ditch the stigma that construction is lagging and be pioneers instead. We invite you to join the leaders in the industry and take advantage of the technology available to you to become more efficient and agile.  If you want to know where to start, let's chat. Wijs.ca Read on here: https://lnkd.in/g9uuVNgR And the report is here: https://lnkd.in/gwKibuBh #constructionsafety #safetyapp #safety #digitalsafety #wijs #wijssafety #riskmanagement #safetysoftware #OHSMS #duediligence #Constructiontechnology #constructioninnovation #trimble

The IHSA has decided to no longer offer the COR equivalency certificate to ISO45001 certified companies. You can read about it here...https://lnkd.in/e6Tvxgsn If you had the equivalency certificate, you'll now need to submit a fully separate COR audit to retain your COR certificate. That should be your biggest hiccup. If you're running a proper safety management system, the method you choose to audit it really shouldn't make a difference. While the marking mechanisms may be different, the content of your safety management system shouldn't be. Regardless of choosing COR or ISO, Wijs was designed to work equally well for both, making your work and audits easier.
