Spotting Risks Before They Happen Keeps Onshore Wind Teams Safe

Keeping people consistently informed while on an onshore wind site is challenging. Teams are spread across large areas, conditions change quickly, and critical restrictions can easily be overlooked. The result? Confusion, delays, and increased safety risks. In fast-paced environments, even a small communication gap can have serious consequences.

In Scotland, many onshore wind sites are located within areas where activities, such as stalking wildlife, frequently occur. There have been incidents where workers have felt concerned for their safety due to nearby stalking parties. Traditionally, this information might be passed on over the phone, but it doesn’t always reach everyone who needs it, leaving workers unaware and exposed to risk.

This is where the KUDO platform can help. Designed with workforce safety in mind, it gives site teams the tools they need to communicate clearly and act quickly:

• If a worker notices hunters nearby, they can log it directly on the app using the Safety Events feature. That record is immediately visible to anyone booking onto site, so new arrivals are aware of the situation before they even step foot on site.

• If an event is critical for all personnel on site, a user can escalate it with a Site Broadcast, sending a notification directly to the phones of all personnel on site.

  
  

This moves safety communication from inconsistent and reactive to real-time and proactive. Workers aren’t just following instructions; they become part of the process. That engagement builds awareness, reduces risk, and strengthens compliance.

For onshore wind projects, it means fewer incidents, a safer workforce, and the confidence that everyone goes home at the end of the day.
