Last March, even the most experienced safety professionals couldn’t have foreseen what construction job sites would look like today. Along with the introduction of even more stringent safety protocols came a slew of new technologies. Most were designed to minimize the risk of exposure and transmission of COVID-19.
One of the more popular and cost effective options among the newer technologies are digital sign-in apps. These took off once it became clear that paper health screening sheets were unhealthy, inaccurate, time-consuming, and almost useless for contact tracing. Workers and visitors feel safer performing touchless check-ins using their own smartphones with a QR-coded poster. This also while reducing a contractor’s risks and protecting communities.
