Falls from height continue to be the most common cause of fatal accidents to construction workers in Great Britain. HSE's construction industry statistics show that falls from height were the cause of over half (53%) of construction worker fatalities in 2024 to 2025. Companies will be prosecuted if they are in breach of the legislation in place to protect workers. HBXL's digital tool, Health & Safety Xpert, provides the relevant Risk Assessments for the job in hand, together with Toolbox Talks and a guiding hand at each phase of the project.

The No Falls Foundation is running its annual No Falls Week, promoting safe working at height. Help save lives by stopping falls.

You know those jobs - the ones where you get to the end and think:

“That was a bit of a disaster.”
“We should have spotted that earlier.”
“Next time, we’ll be more organised.”

But by then, the extra labour has been swallowed. The missed tasks have caused delays. The profit you expected has taken a hit.

BuildProjex's Job Management tool gives builders a clever, cloud-based way to keep jobs on track while they’re happening - with tasks, deadlines, deliveries, customers and subcontractors all managed in one place.

So nothing gets overlooked. Everyone knows what’s happening. And you’ve got a far better chance of making the profit you deserve.

Because the best time to fix a job is before it goes wrong.
