Day in the Life

6:30am

Voice1st with Smart Forms

The crew gathers for their daily pre-job brief. Field1st captures the full discussion — every idea, concern, and safety callout — as the supervisor engages with their crew. Voice1st transcribes the conversation and fills out the form. The smart form is a micro-learning environment, delivering critical and relevant content to the crew and prompting the user with missing details such as PPE, rescue plans, or specific fall-protection needs. The pre-job brief  is ready for sign-off – before the coffee even cools.

10:15am

Photo-Based Hazard Identification & Instant Alerts

Mid-morning, a loose scaffold tie catches the supervisor’s eye. One photo, one tap — the image uploads to Field1st, where HazardID scans it to identify all hazards, not just the obvious ones. Within seconds, the supervisor views a full set of suggested controls, turning a single photo into a detailed controls plan for the job. If the plan needs approval, it’s automatically routed to the Safety Manager — keeping the process fast, complete, and collaborative.

12:45pm

Observation Tracking, AI Coaching & Unified Safety Intelligence

Throughout the day, the supervisor will complete a mandatory safety observation of the crew – assessing the worksite and worker behaviors.  The next morning, Pulse Reports are delivered that will surface patterns across crews and jobsites – highlighting what needs corrective action on a daily basis. Supervisors and Safety Managers can drill into reports for rich context, turning daily data into ongoing coaching and early risk prevention.

3:30pm

Near Miss & Incident Reporting

Later in the afternoon, a crew member narrowly avoids an incident when a hoist line fails to secure properly. Because the supervisor already has Field1st open, capturing the event takes seconds. With a short voice note and a quick photo, the platform documents the near miss automatically — including contributing factors, location, and crew details. Field1st’s HazardID identifies areas of risk and recommended controls, then routes the report to the Safety Manager for review and follow-up. The next morning, Pulse Reports connect the event to earlier hazards identified on site, helping leadership close the loop and prevent similar incidents across other crews.

5:00pm

AI Safety Agent, Micro-Learning & Rapid Adoption

Always ready when connected, the AI Safety Agent provides instant answers and guidance in the flow of work. Whether it’s clarifying your unique, local OSHA requirements or prompting teams on company-specific safety procedures, supervisors get immediate, trusted support — no waiting, no searching. The AI Safety Agent delivers real-time coaching and continuous micro-learning, helping crews stay compliant, confident, and engaged. Combined with Field1st’s responsive onboarding and support, adoption takes hold quickly — even among the most skeptical teams.
