- Automated investigation gathers relevant contractor data when issues occur, reducing response times by 50-70%
Our Enterprise Protection Platform delivers what matters:
- Independent verification ensures contractor credentials are complete and legitimate before site entry through the contractor portal solution
- Advanced Permit to Work solution covers everything from permit creation and approval to worker sign-on and project closure
- Hardware solutions including biometric kiosks with finger scanning and facial recognition prevent contractor fraud
- Fatigue management monitors work hours, sets thresholds and provides alerts before safety is compromised
- ERP integration with Oracle, SAP and Microsoft Dynamics creates one source of truth
challenge
Contractor compliance and verification
Manual contractor verification fails when it matters most. You're trusting paperwork that nobody validates until an incident exposes the gaps.
Ideagen Worksfore Safety independently verifies every credential through our contractor portal—checking certifications against national databases, validating training status automatically, and flagging risks before workers reach your gate. Result: 25-40% improvement in compliance audit scores.
challenge
Site access control and security
Unauthorised access happens when manual systems can't keep up. Badge checks get rushed. Competency verification gets skipped.
Ideagen Workforce Safety's intelligent terminals change this—using biometric verification (fingerprint, facial recognition) integrated with your gates and turnstiles. Add drug and alcohol testing at entry. Track everyone in real-time. No gaps, no guesswork, no unauthorised access.
challenge
Employee safety training and competency management
Training gaps turn into accidents when unqualified workers perform critical tasks.
Ideagen Workforce Safety prevents this with automated competency tracking by role, site and company. The system predicts training needs, auto-assigns courses, and alerts managers 30 days before certifications expire. Digital inductions cut onboarding time in half. Training administration drops by 30-50%.
challenge
Fatigue and lone worker safety
15% of your workforce operates alone—at risk from fatigue, falls and medical emergencies.
Ideagen Workfore Safety's WorkSafe Guardian provides 24/7 protection through intelligent monitoring. Fatigue algorithms track hours across all sites. Fall detection triggers automatic alerts. GPS locates workers instantly. Perfect for healthcare home visits, utility field work, and remote construction teams.
challenge
Multi-site workforce visibility
Managing workers across multiple sites means data trapped in different systems, invisible trends, and contractors slipping through gaps.
Ideagen Worksfore Safety's Enterprise Protection Platform fixes this disconnect. One dashboard shows all workforce data. Evacuation protocols work across every site. ERP integration connects to existing systems. Leadership gets the unified view they need to make strategic decisions.
