• How wearables, beacons and geofencing work and how they have transformed safety at the Volpatt worksites.
• How Volpatt is “eating their own dogfood’ by using solutions by ShareinTech and how that forms a virtuous cycle.
• How the tech was adopted by their construction workforce and lessons learned.
• How an increase safety measures reduces the cost of labor by improving a firm’s EMR (Experience Modification Rating) which in turn reduces worker’s compensation premiums.
