Making work sites safer and smarter every day with innovative EHS software
About us
Hello, we’re Wijs. Dutch for wise and pronounced that way, we called it Wijs because our innovative safety management solution helps construction companies manage safety, compliance and risk more efficiently and intelligently. Wijs Safety Software was built on three kinds of intelligence: human, machine and systems. With this unique design, Wijs innovates Health & Safety management on the job site and in the office with smart workflows, visual cues and helpful, fully automated features. Together, it means Wijs streamlines field process and admin work, and connects operations across job sites, projects, teams and departments unlike any other safety software today. Created with contractors across industries, Wijs was designed by an owner-contractor, a health & safety management system consultant, a Lean Six Sigma process improvement expert, and an ISO 45001 auditor, giving contractors the power of deep expertise with a 360 view of the construction industry.

It's easy to do complexity. It's far harder to do smart simplicity. We're seeing a lot of safety software pack in features, whistles and bells, while making safety actually harder for workers. The result is workers are often refusing to do inspections on complicated, unfriendly software. That's why we believe less is more. With everything we do, we strive to keep our software powerful yet simple, flexible and easy to learn, while focused on solving real business challenges. Take a tour and see why less is so much more with Wijs. #constructionsafety #safetyapp #safety #digitalsafety #wijs #wijssafety #riskmanagement #safetysoftware #OHSMS #duediligence #lessismore

Less costly to maintain. Always up to date. Accessible across a site, wherever devices are allowed. For these reasons and more, it's great news that construction firms can now post the Green Book in digital format. This is definitely a step in the right direction, but it also means employers need to make sure workers have access and the training to access the Green Book where and when they need it. At Wijs, we've made it easier for workers with our digital Safety Board and offline access to downloadable Resources when there's no signal. That's how we're working to bring health & safety intelligence to everyone on site.

Better habits lead to better safety. The right smart technology can help a team build good safety habits by focusing on the key parts of what Charles Duhigg in The Power of Habit calls the habit “loop”: the cue, the routine, and the reward. That's where Wijs excels. First, Wijs provides the cue of pop-up notifications to prompt workers to do their forms. Next, Wijs removes obstacles to doing the routine by making inspections easier with pre-filled fields, QR codes and one-click access to outstanding forms. Finally, for the reward, Wijs gives you a smart submission tracker so you can visualize the winning streak, along with analytics to measure the progress made. You can use both as proof when you recognize worker efforts and praise the team’s achievements. That’s the science of habit-building put to work to make your health & safety smarter, and you’ll find all this with Wijs.

It's hard to understand what your H&S expectations are when the governing bodies surrounding it keep moving things around. This is a win for contractors, allowing them to pick COR or ISO, whichever is most appropriate form them, but the way it's been done feels a bit goofy to us. We feel it would be more appropriate to let COR issue COR certificates, ISO issue ISO certificates and project owners understanding and allowing for various approved certifications. It still lets the contractor pick, gives the owner protection, and lets each auditor audit their own stuff. Just our 2 cents!
