– external hire to store or site
– people from job to job, same site or different site
– fluctuating workforce
• Incidents
– equipment breaks or disappears, people leave, jobs are delayed, unexpected deliveries (less or more)

confined spaces)

9. The Health & Safety Hub for Multiple Contract Sites
• Not just a matter of mapping a checklist (converting paper to digital)
but it is critical to build a practical workflow, often integrated with ERP
systems
• Software must capture then provide for actionable items to ensure the
seamless and timely scheduling of maintenance and defect tasks
• Not only does equipment need to be tracked, inspected and deemed fit
for use, but the workforce must be trained, qualified and monitored

10. Safety of Workers is a Core Value
• People Register®
– Byrne Bros. “Training Records” functionality provides an effective
solution to aid in meeting the increasingly stringent HSE
requirements
• AssetTagz manages qualifications, training, proof of attendance, Daily
Briefings, Tool Box Talks, safety critical job suitability and medical
assessments for workers
• AssetTagz monitors their equipment and consumable usage, on various job
sites and allows for quick worker deployment to various job sites and
issuance of tools and equipment
– system ensures workers are not issued assets if not properly trained
– blocks multiple issues of identical tools, and as each allocated tool is associated with a
particular worker, they are made accountable
