The reality
Agriculture is the most dangerous industry in Australia.
Not one of the most dangerous — the most. These are the numbers behind every Australian farm.
Figures are for Australian agriculture as a whole. See sources below.
Private enterprise
Spreadsheets and audits don't prevent incidents.
At scale, safety becomes a data problem. Crews change weekly, contractors come and go, and head office can't see what's happening in the field until something has already gone wrong. Compliance paperwork proves you tried — it doesn't bring anyone home.
01
Uneven visibility across sites
Multiple properties, shifting crews and labour hire make consistent oversight the hardest part of running at scale — and you can't manage a risk you can't see.2
02
Contractors & labour hire
Inducting and verifying a revolving workforce is a constant burden, and gaps in induction are where incidents happen.3
AirAgri for private enterprise
Real-time human-risk intelligence, at scale.
One live view of safety across every property, role and contractor — and the data to prove it.
Real-time worker tracking
See where every worker is — across paddocks, yards and sheds, even out of phone range, direct-to-satellite.
Man-down & duress alarms
A fall, no-movement or duress alerts the closest people for immediate response. No button to remember.
Heat & isolation awareness
Flag heat conditions and lone or at-risk workers before exposure becomes an incident.
Inductions & training
Get workers, contractors and crews competent and recorded quickly, with SOPs that are easy to follow.
Hazard & incident reporting
Capture near-misses and hazards from the field, with a full, time-stamped audit trail.
Board & ESG-ready data
Property- and role-based risk profiling, and defensible human-risk data — held onshore in Australia.
The commercial upside
Protects your people and your balance sheet.
Fewer serious incidents
Faster response and earlier intervention reduce the events that hurt people and stop work.
Lower insurance & downtime
Fewer claims, less lost time, and a clear safety record at renewal.
Stronger governance
Demonstrable duty of care across every site, role and contractor.
Audit-ready risk data
One source of truth for ESG, board and regulator reporting.
Who it's for
Built for commercial agribusiness.
Australian agriculture is an $88 billion industry5 — and increasingly run at corporate scale.
