Miter launches safety product for contractors

Safety is one of the most important parts of running a construction company, but most systems still live in the back office. Safety meetings, inspections, observations, and incidents are spread across separate tools, spreadsheets, and paper forms, disconnected from where the work actually happens.

This makes it harder to see what’s going on across jobs and limits how much the field can actually participate in the safety program. Even with construction safety software, safety is often managed separately from the systems crews use every day.

That’s why we built Miter Safety. It brings safety into the same system contractors already use for payroll, HR, time tracking, and workforce operations, so activity is tied to jobs, crews, supervisors, and hours worked from the start.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – (May 4, 2026) – Miter, a workforce management platform built for the construction industry, today announced the launch of Miter Safety, a set of new tools designed to make safety part of day-to-day work on construction jobsites, not something managed separately in the back office.

Miter is adding safety to the same system contractors already use for payroll, HR, time tracking, and workforce operations. The result is something standalone safety tools can’t offer: a single place where safety training and reporting are connected to every worker, crew, and job.

With Miter Safety, crews can capture hazards, complete inspections, conduct toolbox talks, and report incidents directly from their phones. Today, many construction companies manage safety through a mix of spreadsheets, standalone tools, and manual processes, limiting visibility across jobs. Miter Safety brings these activities into the same system contractors already use to run their business, giving leaders a clearer view of safety performance and making it easier for field teams to participate as work is happening.

Because Miter is already the system contractors use to manage their workforce, safety training and certifications can be assigned, tracked, and completed in the same place, tied to the same worker records used for payroll and HR. It’s a level of integration that standalone safety tools, which sit outside the HR system entirely, can’t replicate.

Contractors can also see safety performance with far more context because safety activity is tied to jobs, crews, supervisors, and hours worked. Leaders can compare jobsites, understand which supervisors are seeing more incidents, and track metrics like TRIR using actual hours worked without pulling data together from multiple systems.

“The best contractors make safety their number one priority. It’s how you show your people they matter. There’s nothing more important than making sure your people go home to their families every night,” said Connor Watumull, co-founder and CEO of Miter. “Miter Safety helps contractors design and administer safety programs that actually keep their crews safe, part of our broader mission to help contractors build with confidence.”

The product also uses AI to reduce the manual work involved in safety reporting, lowering the barrier to participation and helping teams surface issues before they become incidents. Crews can capture hazards using photos or voice notes, and Miter structures that input into observations or incident reports, making it faster to document issues in the field. Teams can generate toolbox talks and inspection checklists from a topic or job description, helping standardize safety processes without additional administrative work.

Miter Safety gives contractors a clearer, more complete view of safety across their operations, without lengthy setup or the complexity that comes with stitching together separate systems. The platform includes dashboards showing incident trends, observation activity, and safety meeting participation across jobs, crews, and supervisors, helping teams identify risks earlier and improve safety programs over time.
