What it said
- Mentions AI
Yes
We will continue to systematically take a risk-based approach to the deployment of this technology across all our operated assets in FY2027 to further reduce risk around pedestrian and vehicle interactions – the introduction of AI-enabled mobile solutions designed to simplify hazard reporting, improve access to safety information and support the early identification of risks.
