MELBOURNE MINING SAFETY

The Challenge
Melbourne's mining operations face unique safety challenges across open-pit mines, underground operations, and processing facilities. With complex heavy machinery, challenging environmental conditions, and high-risk activities, maintaining consistent safety compliance is crucial yet challenging. Traditional safety programs often fail to engage workers in real-time or provide immediate positive reinforcement for safe behaviors.
Melbourne's mining sector employs over 12,000 workers across various operations, with safety incidents costing the industry approximately $47 million annually. Local WorkSafe data indicates that equipment-related incidents and ground control issues remain top concerns. Our platform addresses these specific challenges while ensuring compliance with Victorian mining regulations and safety standards.
Our Solution
Our Safety Recognition & Rewards platform revolutionizes mining safety culture by providing instant recognition for safe work practices. From excavator pre-start checks to proper confined space entry procedures, workers receive immediate rewards for following safety protocols. The mobile-first platform makes it easy for supervisors to recognize and reward safe behaviors directly from the mining site, while digital wallets ensure rewards are instantly accessible.
