Safe Construction Sites
We place a strong emphasis on the pivotal role of our workforce in our success. In line with this belief, we are proactively focused on enhancing safety across our construction sites. Our commitment to a secure working environment is demonstrated through the implementation of rigorous rules and regulations. These are specifically tailored to suit the unique conditions of each project location, underscoring our dedication to ensuring safety.
We are on the continuous pursuit for innovative methods to enhance on-site safety. This dedication has proven invaluable in challenging times, such as the pandemic. In response to the COVID-19 crisis, we initiated new task forces; allowing for immediate and decisive actions, including the implementation of essential measures, such as the provision of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), the enforcement of physical distancing protocols, and the organization of vaccination drives.
We extend this commitment externally, in attempt to fulfil our part in contributing to the development of future generations entering this field. We have redeveloped the health and safety module under “Dorra Academy” to equip the next wave of engineers and architects with the necessary knowledge and skills.

In addition, our Sustainability & Innovation Committee collaborated with IRIS VR (US) in trial runs using Oculus devices within the New Giza University Building BIM model, providing valuable insights into the benefits of virtual collaboration for enhanced project visualization, clash detection, design coordination, and communication.
This introduced us to ways in which the integration of Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR) and VR in construction and civil engineering enhances the level of training safety, by allowing our workforce and interns to simulate real-life scenarios in a risk-free environment. Given the high-risk nature of the construction industry, these technological advancements contribute to proactive problem-solving, cost minimization, and maintenance of a safe working environment.
