Analysis
Track progress and trends by reviewing the Analysis pages for inspections, meetings, hazards, observations, and incidents on the Safesite Admin Dashboard. In addition to displaying a heatmap of completed assigned actions, you'll also find graphical charts that display breakdowns of other relevant information reported by your personnel from their Safety Actions.
Campaigns
You can think of a Safety Campaign as a group of Action Cards assigned to specific personnel on a set schedule. Campaigns make things simple for mobile users by taking the guesswork out of knowing which template they should use by allowing admins to pre-assign them from the Safesite Admin Dashboard. Campaigns help improve accountability and safety engagement by allowing admins to specify the meeting or inspection template they want their personnel to complete.
Certificates
Mobile users can upload their training certificates or vaccination cards to the Safesite mobile app. With just a few taps, employees can share their certificates within the app so that Admins can view them on the Safesite Admin Dashboard. Equipment certifications, OSHA 10 or 30 completion, and various other training certifications can also be uploaded. In addition, company-wide and personnel certificates can also be uploaded by Project or Organization Administrators from the Safesite Admin Dashboard.
Co-creator
The co-creator feature allows users to assist others with inspections, hazards, meetings, observations, and incidents so that their names are on the Safety Action reports.
Customer support
The best way to contact Safesite’s support team is to reach out through email at [email protected] or through the Safesite Admin Dashboard or mobile app Live Chat.

Equipment
Some organizations need to monitor the use and maintenance of equipment. Safesite’s Equipment feature allows you to register and track information about individual pieces of equipment, including locations and maintenance schedules. An equipment list can also be exported for the equipment logged to a specific project from the Safesite Admin Dashboard or Safesite mobile app.

Groups
Larger organizations with divisions, segments, or regions create Groups that allow administrators to manage and organize multiple projects together to review reports, analyses, and Safesite Score averages. After creating a Group of 2 or more projects, project information can be viewed on the Group Dashboard.
Group reporting is available for Premium Safesite accounts and above.
Group Dashboard
The Group Dashboard gives information for a Group of projects, comparing the performance of each project associated with it. The information on the Group Dashboard includes the projects' Safesite Scores, Actions Summary, and Weekly Actions Project Leaderboard.
Guest
Guests who have been invited at the project level can complete any safety actions within the mobile app, such as recording observations, raising/resolving hazards, and conducting inspections. They can also be assigned safety actions through Campaigns.
It's important to note that guests cannot be admins and cannot access the Safesite desktop reporting. The weekly safety actions of Guests are not factored into the Safesite Score. Guests do not take a paid seat in the Organization.
Guests can be added to specific projects from the Safesite Desktop after selecting the Project and Project details ➔ Personnel ➔ selecting Guest from the Type dropdown.
Guests can also be added as Co-Creators on Safety Items and as Meeting attendees while conducting Meetings on the Safesite Mobile app.
Hazards
A hazard is a source or situation with the potential to cause injury or ill health. Hazard management and communication are integral to maintaining a safe working environment. Hazards can be recorded and resolved through the Safesite mobile app. Hazard Safety Action reports can be viewed and exported by admins on the Safesite Admin Dashboard.
Incident reports
OSHA defines an incident as "an unplanned, undesired event that adversely affects the completion of a task.” Companies typically respond to incidents, either by recording them to analyze and track safety metrics or by taking proactive steps such as holding a quick safety meeting to discuss the events that led to the incident.
The incident report feature of the Safesite mobile app allows your users to keep track of any incident that may occur while directly on the job site. The incident types that are supported include near misses, injury, property damage, theft, and equipment failure. Incident reporting can be completed on the Safesite Admin Dashboard at a later date. This allows for additional documentation to be added for thoroughness (police reports, witness statements, medical reports, invoices, etc).
Inspections
Inspections are audits and checklists used by various industries and organizations to standardize safe and/or efficient operations and/or ensure compliance. Safesite has its own library of templates to choose from that can be used on the Safesite mobile app. Organization and Project Administrators can add or create organization-specific inspection templates for personnel to access via the Safesite mobile app.
