«Mit einer Handy-App steigt die Zahl der gemeldeten Vorfälle»

“The reporting app needs to be easily accessible in employees' everyday lives. Then we can see that more people report incidents," says Jan Eriksson, acting Head of Safety at Implenia Sweden. One step in the process of getting more people to report incidents has been to simplify the process and number of options in the app. “Now it's so easy, anyone should be able to quickly pick up their mobile phone, open the app, take a photo and send off a report," says Jan Eriksson.

According to Jan Eriksson, there are many benefits by increasing the reporting rate - both from a company perspective and from an employee perspective. “In short, we can say that we solve a lot of problems if more people report deviations. We make more money, and we get healthier and happier employees. And in practice, we win more thrilling projects! Our clients look very closely at health and safety when choosing a supplier. The higher level of safety in the project, the better - it's as simple as that!”

Creating a a safe workplace in Hagalund

“We create a safe workplace by preventing risks. Everyone should know what to do, and have the right equipment," says Josef Ibrahim, who is the work environment coordinator for the Hagalund project. He explains that they work with risk assessments and work preparation. These show the risks of the tasks and what measures are required before the work can begin, as well as what special protective equipment they need for that particular work. “The more incident reports we receive, the better the overview we get of which risks are the greatest on the project, and which we need to focus on. That way we reduce the number of accidents," says Josef Ibrahim.
