MEGA-PROJECTS & CONSTRUCTION

One contractor or a hundred — one emergency and safety system

On a large site every contractor has its own procedures, channels and paperwork — and sometimes visitors and events run right next to the works. Fawz puts everyone on one system: from the permit and hazard analysis before work, to activation and command during an incident, to the lesson that returns to the risk register.

THE CHALLENGE

What a project HSE manager faces

The site changes every day, contractors come and go, and the risks move with them.

TODAYEvery contractor has different emergency procedures and channels.

WITH FAWZOne code set for the whole site; every contractor and team gets its card and role in the same activation.

TODAYDuring an incident it's unclear who leads: the contractor's HSE officer, site operations or Civil Defense.

WITH FAWZA command matrix per code: a default commander, escalation by severity, and command handed to Civil Defense on arrival.

TODAYFalls, electrocution and crane incidents are reported late through call chains.

WITH FAWZA dedicated code for contractor occupational incidents, with instant activation and cards for the HSE officer, medic and site lead.

TODAYPermits are on paper, and simultaneous operations clash on site.

WITH FAWZEight permit types with their requirements: fire watch, attendant, competent person, isolation, atmospheric testing and scaffold tags.

TODAYNear misses and observations go unreported because workers don't read Arabic or English.

WITH FAWZReporting in the worker's own language, with photo and voice note, from a QR code at the work front or a shared device at welfare areas.

TODAYDrills run without timing or tracked frequency.

WITH FAWZA drill frequency per code — 90, 180 or 365 days — and per contractor, rolling up to the project's master plan, with overdue alerts and a recorded evaluation.

TODAYInjury classification is disputed, and the owner's report is days late.

WITH FAWZInjury classification (lost time, restricted work, medical treatment, first aid), with a flash, preliminary and final report and root cause analysis.

TODAYMethod statements and risk assessments circulate by email between contractor and consultant.

WITH FAWZMethod statements and risk assessments submitted, reviewed and approved on the platform before work starts.

SITE CODES

Codes designed for a construction site

Each code has its default commander, its cards, its notification levels and its drill frequency.

RedFire — Civil Defense takes command on arrival

BlueMedical emergency

AmberContractor occupational incident: fall, electrocution, struck-by, excavation or confined space, heat stress

OrangeHazmat or structural failure

SilverSecurity threat

BronzeCrowding or missing person in public areas

PurpleVIP visit

GreenSite evacuation

Codes are configured to your project's emergency plan; the visitor and crowd codes are for projects open to the public.

NOTIFICATION LEVELS

Three levels per code, then stand-down

Each level has its own message, instructions and channels: push, SMS, email or broadcast.

Tier 1

The code's key personnel.

Tier 2

The affected department or zone.

Tier 3

Everyone on site.

✓

Stand-down

Back to normal work, with clear instructions.

Permit-to-work types

Hot workExcavation & trenchingScaffoldingConfined space & tunnelsPressure testingElectrical & LOTOChemical & fuel storageLifting & cranes

Each type with its requirements: fire watch, attendant, competent person, isolation, utility locate, atmospheric testing at set intervals, and scaffold inspection tags. And a live board of active permits by zone shows clashes before they happen.

CAPABILITIES

What a project HSE manager needs

Incident investigation and classification

Injury classification, flash, preliminary and final reports, root cause analysis, and corrective actions with owners and deadlines.

Safety observations

Unsafe act, unsafe condition and good-practice cards — the site's main leading indicator.

Reporting in the worker's language

In the workforce's languages such as Urdu, Hindi, Bengali, Nepali and Tagalog, with photo and voice, via QR code or a shared device.

Method statements and risk assessments

A submission, review and approval workflow configured to your project's procedures.

Lifting operations and certificates

Expiry dates for crane, lifting-gear, operator and rigger certificates, configured and checked before a lifting permit.

Job hazard analysis

Following OSHA 3071; an approved JHA can be required before a permit is issued.

Field inspections

Checklists with photo and location — or your own — and every finding becomes a corrective action with an owner and a deadline.

Management of change

Assess any change to work, equipment or organisation before it happens.

ATEX devices and no-network radio

For hazardous areas and tunnels, with an SOS key and a thermal camera.

Site emergency response

Rescue-at-height and confined-space rescue plans, assembly-point headcount, and the site clinic and ambulance.

Environment

Environmental incidents and inspections — dust, waste, spills and noise — configured to your project's requirements.

Monthly owner report

A monthly HSE report for the owner generated from platform data, instead of being compiled by hand from contractors.
