See the Risk Before It Becomes the Incident.
PPE compliance, zone monitoring, ergonomic alerts, and near-miss detection — all running in real time from existing cameras. Safety intelligence that was previously invisible, now continuous and automatic.
The Reactive Safety Problem
Most safety programs are structured around two things: training and investigation. Train people on what to do. Investigate when something goes wrong.
The space between — where violations happen, near-misses occur, and risk accumulates — is largely unmonitored. PPE compliance is verified by supervisors walking the floor. A supervisor covers a fraction of the plant at any given moment.
The hard hat removed between walk-throughs, the safety glasses hanging around the neck, the missing hi-vis in a high-traffic zone — these go unseen until someone is hurt. Near-misses go unreported. Industry estimates suggest the vast majority of near-miss events are never documented. Each unreported near-miss is a data point that could have informed prevention but instead disappeared.
Workplace safety violations cost an estimated $170 billion annually. The cost is not just financial — it is human. And the root issue is not a lack of rules. It is a lack of visibility between the rules and the floor.
Why This Matters
$170 billion — the annual cost of workplace safety violations in US manufacturing (NSC). 87% of violations are detectable before the incident — but only if someone is watching. Your supervisor cannot be everywhere. Your cameras can. The Heinrich Safety Triangle establishes that for every serious injury, there are approximately 29 minor injuries and 300 near-misses. The near-miss layer — the foundation of the triangle — is where prevention lives. But in most plants, fewer than 5% of near-misses are reported (Campbell Institute). The data that should drive prevention programs is invisible. OSHA reporting requirements capture the incidents. They do not capture the precursors. Safety Vision closes this gap by making near-misses and violations visible continuously, creating the data foundation that prevention programs require.
How It Works
What Safety Vision Does
Measurable Outcomes
Reduce Safety Violations
87% reduction in safety violations through continuous real-time monitoring. When violations are detected and addressed immediately, the behavior change is rapid and sustained. The deterrent effect of continuous monitoring is well-documented in behavioral safety research.
Prevent, Not Investigate
Violations caught at the moment of occurrence. The intervention happens before the incident, not after the report. The shift from reactive investigation to proactive prevention changes the fundamental nature of the safety program — from documenting what went wrong to ensuring it does not happen.
Surface the Invisible
Near-miss data captured automatically. Ergonomic risks identified passively. Safety teams gain visibility into events that previously went unrecorded. For the first time, the base of the Heinrich Safety Triangle is visible — providing the leading indicator data that prevention programs have always needed but never had at scale.
Audit-Ready Safety Records
Every PPE violation, zone breach, and near-miss logged with timestamp, location, and visual evidence. Compliance documentation generated continuously, not assembled before the audit. OSHA recordkeeping requirements are satisfied through automated data capture. Safety inspection records are generated from continuous monitoring data, reducing the administrative burden on EHS teams.
Expected Outcomes:
In early deployments, PPE compliance rates have increased from 70-80% (observed during periodic walk-throughs) to above 95% under continuous monitoring.
Near-miss reporting volume has increased by 10 to 20 times compared to manual reporting systems, creating a statistically meaningful dataset for prevention analysis.
Ergonomic risk assessments that previously required dedicated studies are now generated continuously, enabling workstation redesign prioritized by observed risk data.
