Workshop safety software, feature by feature

From the morning walk-around to the compliance pack an inspector asks for, WorkshopSafe keeps a workshop's checks, incidents, safety records and certificates in one app the whole team can use, on any phone or tablet.

QR daily checks

Every hoist, compressor and extinguisher gets its own QR label. Scan it with the phone or tablet the site is signed in on, tap your name and enter your PIN, and the right check opens with its instructions: pass or fail, a photo, a note, done in under a minute.

Each sign-off lands on the record under the right person, with the date and time. A shared shop tablet is paired with a one-time code, notes can be spoken instead of typed, and each person sees only their own day.

Inspections & servicing

Each piece of equipment carries the checks it needs: what must be done and how often, who does it, the PPE it needs and what a pass looks like. Daily, monthly and yearly work sits side by side, whether your own people do it or a service company does.

Checks come due on their own and people get reminded. Certificates and evidence are kept on each sign-off, and hoists and air receivers keep their registration numbers.

Incidents & hazards

Report an incident or a hazard in seconds, then work it through Report, Make safe, Investigate, Action and Closed, with every step noted with who did it. Closing one needs its own permission.

A notifiable incident counts down the 48-hour written notice to WorkSafe, in the site's own time, until it's recorded. Hazards not made safe after a day are flagged.

Site readiness

How ready you'd be if an inspector walked in tomorrow. Your site's readiness list is scored as a simple count and split by who asks: WorkSafe, EPA, NMI or your own standards.

Each gap is ranked by what it could lead to (could stop work, could be fined, or good practice), and each WorkSafe gap shows what an inspector could do about it and what it could cost, so the most important fix comes first.

Safety records

The paperwork a workshop is asked for, kept in one place: safe work procedures, risk assessments, the hazardous chemicals register with its safety data sheets (SDSs), inductions, training and a PPE matrix.

Few fields are required, so records fill in over time, and a gap such as an SDS over five years old shows on the readiness list rather than staying in a drawer.

Compliance pack

One click prints the checks, their evidence, the readiness score, incidents and safety records, ready to hand over, or to save.

History is never deleted, so the pack shows what was done and when, signed by the person who did it.

People & contractors

Who holds which skills, who's in today, and where a skill is missing. Add your people with their own PINs, so every check they do is on the record under their name.

Service companies are kept too, with their technicians, and the work they do on your equipment is recorded for you to sign off.

Multi-site & head office

Running several workshops or service stations? Each shop keeps its own register, PINs and tablets, and head office sees every shop's compliance on one screen, with a small, well-defined set of actions and a full audit log.

Group standards can be pushed to chosen shops, with 30 and 90-day readiness trends and exports, emailed alerts and a Monday digest. Roaming staff use one PIN at every shop.
