But the inspections definitely gear our training, so we know specifically on a project what their issues are, where they’re having struggles and we can gear the training for that specific issue rather than training them on something they really don’t have an issue with.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to some key questions you may have regarding HCSS Safety or HCSS.
- HCSS Safety Basic implementation typically includes between 20 and 30 hours of telephone assistance, project management, and on-line courses spread over several days or weeks.
- HCSS Safety Pro implementation typically takes five days spread over a few weeks for companies with fewer than 30 crews, with some additional hours for HCSS project management to keep you on track.
HCSS Safety is easy to use, and it should only take your foremen a few hours to learn how to enter data into the field app. They should be comfortable using it in a few days and very familiar with it in three to four weeks.
HCSS Safety offers pre-built safety meetings and inspections that make relevant content easy to find. Crew leaders can verify and update crew member skills and certifications, use relevant inspections as teaching tools, record safety meeting attendance and topics, track individual employee safety education goals, and track near misses, incidents, and observations to help spot leading indicators of potentially unsafe behavior.
HCSS Safety will return your investment with proven savings in insurance premiums, and it dramatically improves the thoroughness and efficiency of safety data collection and storage., allowing you to easily retrieve safety data needed for claims. It also saves time and liability by efficiently managing certifications. HCSS Safety will provide a huge payoff if you can turn every crew leader into a safety “manager,” and improving your safety program should reduce injuries and help you recruit top talent. You may also qualify for higher-margin work or become a preferred contractor for safety-conscious owners, and you can improve safety presentations on negotiated work through analytics and metrics.
