Incident reporting

Reported on site.
Closed on record.

Anyone on the team can log an incident or near-miss from their phone the moment it happens. You assign the investigation, track the fixes, and close it out with a record that stays.

What gets recorded when something goes wrong.

One near-miss, taken apart. Every piece below is captured on the record, so the story doesn’t depend on who remembers what.

A

Where and what

Filed against the site, with what happened, who was involved and the immediate action taken.

B

Tagged by type

Incident, near-miss or hazard, so you can pull up every near-miss on one site in a click.

C

Corrective actions

Each fix is assigned to someone and tracked until it’s done, not left in a toolbox-talk note.

Where it stands

Its stage shows beside it, so an incident nobody has picked up is obvious at a glance.

E

Stages

Reported, then investigating, then closed with a sign-off once every corrective action is complete.

F

Who and when

Who reported it and when, with the photos they took. Every step after that is timestamped too.

From the report to the close-out.

The same near-miss, from the moment it’s spotted to the day it’s closed.

  1. Reported

    S. Nguyen logs an unsecured edge on Level 2 from site, with two photos.

  2. Made safe

    The immediate action goes on the record: the area is barricaded and edge work stops.

  3. Assigned

    The site manager takes the investigation and adds the corrective actions.

  4. Fixed

    Edge protection goes in and the crew is re-briefed. Each action is ticked off.

  5. Closed

    Signed off and closed. The full record is ready if an insurer or regulator asks.

Getting your team reporting.

Reporting only works if people actually do it, so setting up is about making it the easy option on site.

  1. Day 1

    Add your sites

    Set up your sites and projects, so every report lands against the right one from the start.

  2. Day 1

    Decide who investigates

    Choose who picks up new reports, so nothing sits unassigned while the crew gets on with the day.

  3. Day 2 onwards

    Report from the field

    Anyone on the team logs an incident, near-miss or hazard from their phone, with photos, in a couple of minutes.

Questions people ask.

What can be reported?

Incidents, near-misses and hazards, each through a guided form that captures what happened, who was involved and the immediate action taken.

Can people report from their phone?

Yes. Reports can be logged on mobile or desktop, with photos attached.

How are corrective actions tracked?

Each action is assigned to someone and tracked to completion. The incident closes with a sign-off once they are all done.

Can an incident record be changed later?

Every step is logged with who took it and when, so the history of the record stays intact.

Can we export an incident report?

Yes. Export it for insurance, legal or regulator purposes, with the full history of actions taken.

Make the next near-miss a two-minute report.
