Oops, we're sorry for the mix-up! When we sent an invite to our upcoming AI webinar yesterday, we accidently emailed some contacts who haven’t signed up to receive this information. You can ignore the email and know that we're taking steps to prevent this from happening again. Thank you for your understanding 🤦♀️🤦♂️

Exploring AI’s role in the construction industry 💡 Prakash Senghani, Co-Founder and CEO of Navatech Group and Lawrence Webb IOSH Immediate Past President, recently shared insights on the practical applications of AI in construction at the Safety, Health & Wellbeing Live event. Key takeaways: - AI is growing in popularity, knowledge and impact. It’s here to stay, so we need to get on board. - It can be used for good in a proactive way. It can help you focus more on the value-added work, rather than lots of administrative tasks. - Start asking questions and build your understanding of AI, so you can help shape AI strategies and be part of the conversation. - Use AI-driven communication tools to help break down barriers and improve accessibility for frontline workers, making collaboration smoother and more efficient. - Come to conferences and events, so you can learn how to use it in your own organisation. AI is shaping the future of construction. Are you ready to be part of this transformation? #SHWLive2024 #IOSH #HealthandSafety #OSH #Wellbeing #SafetyFirst #WorkplaceSafety #SafetyProfessionals
