Unlocking Safety: How SafetyClerk is Redefining Construction Compliance with Stefano Braganti
In the latest episode of Inside Insight, we sit down with Stefano Braganti, Founder and CEO of SafetyClerk, to explore how his innovative platform is revolutionizing construction safety and compliance. With a deep background in engineering and real estate development, Stefano shares how SafetyClerk is transforming the industry by digitizing safety processes and leveraging data-driven insights to enhance risk management.
The Journey from Engineer to Tech Innovator
Stefano’s journey began in Italy, where he studied engineering before moving to New York to work in construction and real estate development. His first-hand experience managing job sites led him to recognize a major gap in safety documentation and compliance tracking. Unable to find a solution that met industry needs, he co-founded SafetyClerk in 2022 to bridge the gap between technology and real-world construction safety.
How SafetyClerk is Revolutionizing Job Site Compliance
At its core, SafetyClerk is a platform that digitizes safety documentation, providing real-time insights into compliance status, training records, and job site safety metrics. The platform eliminates paperwork-heavy processes and replaces them with automated, standardized safety data tracking, ensuring that contractors and safety managers can monitor their sites with precision.
Key features of SafetyClerk include:
- Live compliance dashboards that offer a 24/7 overview of job site safety
- Data-driven insights that identify trends in injuries, training, and compliance gaps
- Automated alerts to notify safety managers of expiring documents or missing training records
- Turnstile and access control integration, ensuring only compliant workers enter job sites
- Seamless integrations with platforms like Procore and Autodesk for streamlined project management
Why Customization Can Hurt Safety Data
While many safety platforms offer customizable forms, Stefano warns against over-customization. According to him, custom-built forms can act as “glorified paper” that fail to collect actionable data. By standardizing incident reporting, compliance tracking, and worker training documentation, SafetyClerk enables construction firms to compare safety performance across projects and industry benchmarks.
How Safety Data Lowers Insurance Costs
One of the most groundbreaking aspects of SafetyClerk is its impact on insurance premiums. By providing real-time, verifiable data on safety compliance, construction firms can demonstrate their commitment to risk management, leading to potential insurance cost reductions. Recently, a large subcontractor using SafetyClerk was able to secure lower insurance premiums by showcasing their compliance data to insurers, proving the effectiveness of the platform.
Who Can Benefit from SafetyClerk?
From small subcontractors to large-scale developers, SafetyClerk’s scalable approach ensures that firms of all sizes can enhance their safety procedures. Whether managing a single job site or overseeing hundreds of projects, SafetyClerk adapts to each client’s needs, offering customized insights without compromising industry-wide benchmarking.
Final Takeaways
SafetyClerk is more than just a compliance tool—it’s a game-changer for risk management in construction. With a focus on automation, data-driven insights, and accessibility, Stefano Braganti’s platform is empowering construction professionals to reduce risk, improve safety culture, and optimize operations.
