Trigger, activity, conclusion

01 · Trigger

Recordable incident, near-miss, or observed unsafe behaviour occurs on site; or periodic safety review cycle creates need for new relevant training content.

02 · Activity

Retrieving and editing preserved footage of real site events to create training materials demonstrating consequences of unsafe practices.

03 · Conclusion

Footage-based training content delivered. Attendance logged. Lesson-learned formally recorded and shared across business if appropriate.

Evidence records

Footage of a real near-miss on a live project was used in a subsequent toolbox talk — the site manager described the footage as "far more effective than any training video we've used" because it showed their own site and their own conditions.

ROI model

Template D

safety incident

Evercam speeds safety incident investigation, supports proactive monitoring, and provides evidence for claim defence. Saving comes from faster investigations and reduced/defended claims.

Formula

saving = (investigation_hours_saved × hs_rate × incidents_per_year) + (claims_defended_pct × avg_claim_cost × claimable_incidents_per_year)
