SYDNEY UTILITIES SAFETY

The Challenge
Sydney's utilities sector faces unique safety challenges across power distribution, water treatment, and gas infrastructure. With over 12,000 field technicians working across hazardous environments, maintaining consistent safety compliance is critical. Recent industry data shows that 67% of incidents occur during routine maintenance tasks, while compliance with PPE and safety protocols remains at 78% - well below the target of 95%.
Sydney's utilities sector employs over 12,000 field technicians across power, water, and gas infrastructure. Recent SafeWork NSW data shows utilities workers face 3.2x higher risk of serious injury compared to other industries. Local safety regulations require strict compliance with AS/NZS 4836 for electrical work and AS 2865 for confined spaces. Our platform helps utilities providers meet these requirements while fostering a positive safety culture.
