Trigger, activity, conclusion

01 · Trigger

High-risk activity planned/ongoing — crane operations with exclusion zones, deep excavation with collapse risk, proximity to live buried services, or work near energised electrical infrastructure.

02 · Activity

Maintaining continuous or regularly checked visual surveillance of restricted zones to detect unauthorised access, unsafe proximity, or exclusion boundary breach.

03 · Conclusion

High-risk activity completed without safety incident. Any exclusion zone breach detected and acted on in real-time. Footage retained as compliance record.

Workflow steps

  1. Step 01

    Pre-activity safety planning identifies zones requiring restricted access.

    Inferred
  2. Step 02

    RAMS completed specifying monitoring requirement for the restricted zone.

    Inferred
  3. Step 03

    Camera positions reviewed to confirm restricted zone coverage.

    Evidenced
  4. Step 04

    PTZ camera pre-programmed or manually positioned to cover exclusion zone.

    Inferred
  5. Step 05

    Site safety manager/designated monitor opens the evidence system live view.

    Evidenced
  6. Step 06

    Live monitoring conducted for duration of high-risk activity.

    Evidenced
  7. Step 07

    If unauthorised person enters zone, work halted and individual directed out.

    Inferred
  8. Step 08

    On completion of high-risk activity, zone stood down.

    Inferred
  9. Step 09

    the evidence system recordings retained as safety compliance record.

    Evidenced
  10. Step 10

    In case of incident, footage immediately preserved and provided to investigating authority.

Evidence records

Monitoring of crane exclusion zones and areas where only authorised personnel should be present — continuous surveillance replacing the need for a physical watcher during lift operations.
Anonymized evidence record 42.1
Pre-activity safety planning integration with camera monitoring of excavation edges and live service corridors — establishing the zone coverage requirement before work commences.
Anonymized evidence record 42.2
The ability to remotely check work zones helped avoid multiple daily trips across the site.

ROI model

Template G

risk reduction

Low-probability, high-consequence events whose expected cost is reduced by Evercam's monitoring, deterrence, or evidence capability. Calculated as expected value (probability × cost). Presented separately from operational savings in the output document under 'Risk Mitigation Value'.

Formula

annual_risk_without = event_probability × event_cost; annual_risk_with = (event_probability × (1 - probability_reduction_pct)) × (event_cost × (1 - cost_mitigation_pct)); saving = (annual_risk_without - annual_risk_with) × (project_duration_months / 12)
