Construction site safety management in New York comes with high stakes. Between the requirements of Local Law 196, daily pre-shift safety briefings, and constantly changing site teams, there’s no room for error. Contractors, superintendents, and safety officers need better tools to stay on top of it all—without drowning in paperwork.
Boxcore is a web-based construction site safety software platform designed to meet these needs. From tracking SST cards and OSHA training to logging attendance via facial recognition, Boxcore provides real-time insight into your workforce and safety compliance—available in over 180 languages straight from your browser.
Whether you manage a high-rise in Manhattan or a complex infrastructure build in the Bronx, Boxcore puts the information you need at your fingertips, instantly.
The Problem: Fragmented Safety Systems Slow Everyone Down
Contractors in New York are navigating some of the strictest safety laws in the country. You’re expected to:
- Verify every worker has a valid SST and OSHA card
- Confirm orientation and task-specific training is up to date
- Maintain full visibility on who is on site, when, and for how long
- Capture daily pre-shifts and ensure they’re completed correctly
- Stay ready for unannounced DOB audits
And all of this must be handled across shifting crews and subcontractors. Trying to manage this with spreadsheets, emails, and paper forms is a recipe for delays and risk exposure.
Facial Recognition and Real-Time Workforce Visibility
At the core of Boxcore’s solution is facial recognition time and attendance. Every worker is verified through a simple two-photo setup—no swipe cards, no PINs, no shared badges.
- Get real-time visibility of every person on site
- Know immediately if a worker has the required SST/OSHA card
- Log clock-in and clock-out times automatically
- Eliminate buddy punching and reduce access control risks
- Integrate with turnstiles or run as a standalone mobile system
“Site superintendents tell us that seeing who’s on site at any given time—with the right training—is a game-changer. That’s what Boxcore gives you: clarity within a couple of clicks.” — Padraig Reilly, CEO of Boxcore

Live Labour Logs, On Demand
Need to know exactly who worked yesterday? Want to break it down by trade or subcontractor? Boxcore captures full granular labour logs, visible from your mobile, desktop, or tablet.
In seconds, you can generate:
- Time on site by worker, crew, or company
- Daily labour summaries and historic reports
- Logs that can be exported and shared instantly with head office or the client
This means less time chasing subcontractors and more time managing the site.
Pre-Shift Briefings, Digitally Captured and Verified
DOB regulations and site policies require that all workers receive a daily pre-shift briefing. But in the chaos of morning mobilisation, it’s easy for paperwork to go missing—or for workers to skip the process entirely.
Boxcore lets supervisors and foremen record, sign, and upload pre-shift records directly from site. Each record is tied to:
- The responsible person who delivered the pre-shift
- The list of attendees
- The exact time and project location
No printing. No scanning. No lost paperwork.
Everything is available in a secure digital register—perfect for audit readiness.
Accessible in Over 180 Languages
New York’s construction workforce is among the most diverse in the world. Language barriers can slow down training, orientation, and safety communication.
Boxcore solves this with a fully web-based interface that works in over 180 languages. That means:
- Supervisors can view compliance records in Spanish, Polish, Mandarin, Arabic and more
- Workers can complete digital inductions and read pre-shift messages in their native language
- Site teams reduce misunderstandings and safety risks linked to translation errors
No extra apps or downloads needed—just open Boxcore on any device and go.
