Inspections -- mobile enhancements

Available for all users on the mobile app

We've done significant work improving the Inspection safety action to include the following:

  • New: Sections -- Inspections can now have Sections with an option to Skip an entire section.

  • New: Hyperlinks -- Questions can now have hyperlinks to OSHA regulations, standards, and other information

  • Photos or comments can now be added to any question for additional record keeping

  • Hazards are no longer required by default if a user answers X/NO. Via the admin dashboard, admins can now select if and what safety action is required when a user enters with a negative answer. As you can see on the screenshot below the admin set the Comment as a required action upon selecting X.

Minor Mobile app enhancements

Available for all users on the mobile app

  • Log out button now visible on iPads and Tablets. Before this release we noticed a lot of iPads and Tablets were not showing the Log out button on the menu. 

  • Tagging a Team to an Observation is now optional. We've made the change since not all Observations are related to a specific team. 

  • Portuguese & French overview videos have been added

  • When adding an Observation or Hazard to an Inspection or Meeting, we made a change to no longer populate the 'Description' field, with the same text as the question

  • More performance enhancements

Inspections -- New & Improved Template Editor

Available for all users on the web app

We've completed revamped our Inspection Template Editor to support the features below. Want to learn more? Read this article about template management.

  • New: Sections -- Inspections can now have Sections with an option to Skip an entire section.

  • New: Answer types -- Inspection templates now support more answer types such as Safe/Unsafe and Pass/Fail. See below all the newest answer types that a question can support.

  • New: Logic -- Before this change, all questions answered with a X/NO were required to attach a Hazard. In this new update an admin can choose if a follow up action is required and specify which action to require.

  • New: Hyperlinks -- Questions can now have hyperlinks to OSHA regulations, standards, and other relevant information

Observations -- Analysis -- Negative & Positive 'Count by Location' pie charts now added

Available for all users on the web app

Log in to the Safesite dashboard (app.safesitehq,com) then click Observations -- Analysis -- and observe we've added pie charts to see the count of Positive & Negative Observations by Location.

Inspections -- Reports -- PDF enhancements

Available for all users

With the mobile and web Inspections enhancements made, we also went ahead and revamped the PDF Reports for Inspections to include the following changes:

  • Improved design to better display data and no longer show blank pages when there's no data

  • Show full comments entered on all questions

  • Updated answer types

  • Show full data for any attached action like a Hazard or Observation

Meetings -- Reports -- Comments now visible in PDF exports

Available for all users 

A minor fix with important ramifications. We realize when you export a Meeting Report PDF the text entered in the comment fields were not being shown in the PDF. As shown in the screenshot below, we've made changes to now show all the text for a given answer.
