After years of helping builders in New Zealand and Australia, we’re thrilled to announce that HazardCo is now live in the UK! We know health and safety can be a bit of a headache for builders, which is why our digital system is designed to remove all the guesswork. With over 10,000 businesses and 150,000 users already onboard, we’re confident we can help UK builders get their health and safety sorted too.

Tailored for UK builders

While we’ve had great success in New Zealand and Australia, we knew that the needs of UK builders would be unique. That’s why our system here has been built with input from local health and safety experts who understand the ins and outs of the British construction industry. Plus, our dedicated team in the UK is ready to support you with whatever you need. Whether it’s setting up the system or answering your questions, we’re here to help you stay compliant and keep your crew safe.

Why health & safety is getting a reboot

The construction industry is moving towards more digital tools, and health and safety is no exception. More and more builders are turning to software to manage their projects both on-site and in the office, and we’re here to make that transition as easy as possible. With our simple, guided system, you’ll not only feel confident that you’re staying compliant, but you’ll also be protecting your team and focusing on what you do best—delivering great projects.

Simple, guided health and safety system

The HazardCo system provides builders with a digital system to confidently manage on-site safety. It includes access to the HazardCo Hub, where safety documents like site-specific Construction Phase Plans can be generated in minutes. Builders also receive a Hazard Board for their site, featuring a QR code that guides workers through a digital induction upon entry. With the on-site app, completing important safety documents such as RAMS and Risk Assessments is quick and easy, keeping safety management effortless and efficient.

How we’re supporting you

We get that health and safety can feel like one more thing on a never-ending to-do list. That’s why our system is all about making the process easier. You’ll have access to clear guidance, easy-to-use tools, and support every step of the way.

Reach out to our UK team, or get a free trial to explore the system for yourself. We’re confident you’ll see how much easier health and safety can be with HazardCo by your side.

The construction industry is the most dangerous in Great Britain, with more work-related deaths than any other industry, like manufacturing, transport, or farming. This means that when construction workers go to work each day, they face a higher risk of not coming home safely.

Keeping everyone safe on a construction site isn’t just about wearing hard hats and high-visibility vests. It requires careful planning, preparation, and ongoing attention to the unique risks of each project.

Important Health and Safety Legal Requirements for Construction

  1. Health and Safety Policy:
    If your business has five or more employees, you need a written policy that outlines how you manage health and safety
  2. Construction Phase Plan (CPP):
    This is required by law and explains how health and safety risks will be managed during the construction phase.
  3. Risk Assessments Method Statements (RAMS):
    These documents identify potential hazards on the site and explain how to deal with them safely.
  4. Site Induction Records:
    These records show that all workers have received safety training before starting work on-site.
  5. Accident Register:
    You must keep a record of all accidents and injuries on-site. This helps identify patterns and prevent future accidents.

How HazardCo Can Help

HazardCo provides a system that covers all these legal requirements. The App and Hub make it easy to manage and monitor safety on-site. 

The Importance of Safety

For business leaders, following these rules isn’t just about obeying the law—it shows a commitment to keeping workers safe. Using HazardCo’s system helps build a strong safety culture and proves that you are serious about protecting your workforce.
