At Kitchell, innovation and safety go hand in hand. As we continue to push the boundaries of technology to enhance construction site safety, we’re exploring new ways to make hazard identification more seamless, efficient, and effective.

Enter Meta Glasses—a game-changing technology that’s redefining how we observe and document job site conditions.

Safety Manager Ory Layton has experienced firsthand the challenges of capturing potential hazards in the field. Traditional methods—taking notes, snapping photos on a phone—often create a disconnect between safety professionals and crews. These approaches can be cumbersome, disruptive, and, at times, limit open dialogue.

That’s why Kitchell is embracing hands-free, real-time documentation. Meta Glasses enable Ory to capture site conditions effortlessly, without interrupting workflows or pulling attention away from the task at hand. Without a phone or clipboard in the way, conversations flow more naturally, workers stay engaged, and the documentation is more precise and comprehensive.

But this technology isn’t just about recording observations—it’s about enhancing the culture of safety.

“At the end of the day, it’s not about catching people. It’s about keeping people safe,” says Ory. “These glasses help me do that in a way that’s seamless, effective, and innovative.”

By leveraging smart solutions that prioritize safety without compromise, Kitchell continues to lead the industry—creating safer, smarter, and more connected job sites that move our vision forward.
