Be ready the day the inspector walks in.
WorkshopSafe keeps every equipment check, incident, safety record and certificate in one place. Your team scans a QR code and ticks it off; you see what's due, what's overdue and how ready you'd be for WorkSafe, EPA or NMI, at a glance.
Why WorkshopSafe
Made for the workshop, not adapted to it
Four reasons it fits an auto business from the first day.
Built for auto workshops
Made for mechanical workshops, body shops, tyre dealers, service stations and dismantlers. One press loads the equipment, checks and readiness list for your kind of business.
A QR code on every piece of equipment
Each hoist, compressor and extinguisher gets a label. Scan it, do the check, and the proof is kept: who did it, when, with photos and certificates.
A readiness score, with gaps costed
See how ready you are for WorkSafe, EPA and NMI. Each WorkSafe gap shows what an inspector could do about it, and what it could cost.
Try it without a sales call
30 days free with the full app and no card needed, and a live demo anyone can open. No sales call, no waiting for a quote.
Features
Everything your workshop needs to stay safe and compliant
From the morning walk-around to the compliance pack an inspector asks for, in one app your whole team can use.
QR daily checks
Scan the label on any equipment for a guided check: pass or fail, a photo, a note. Done in under a minute.
Inspections & servicing
What must be done and how often, who does it, the PPE it needs and what a pass looks like.
Incidents & hazards
Raise one in seconds and work it through to closed, with the 48-hour WorkSafe notice counted down.
Site readiness
How ready you'd be if an inspector walked in tomorrow, with each gap ranked by what it could cost.
Safety records
Safe work procedures, risk assessments, chemicals and SDSs, inductions, training and a PPE matrix.
Compliance pack
One click prints checks, evidence, readiness, incidents and records, ready to hand over.
People & contractors
Who holds which skills, who's in today, and service companies whose work you sign off.
Multi-site & head office
Every shop's compliance on one screen, with group standards, trends and a weekly digest.
Built for the workshop floor
Safety that fits the way a workshop actually runs
Designed for a thumb on a phone or a tablet on the wall, not a desk and a spreadsheet.
Daily checks
Scan, tick, done. Every check on the record.
Stick a QR label on each hoist, compressor and extinguisher. Staff tap their name, enter their PIN and scan; the right check opens with its instructions, and every sign-off lands on the audit trail under the right person.
- Guided pass or fail with photos and notes
- Shared shop tablets paired with a one-time code
- Speak notes instead of typing
- Each person sees only their own day
Incidents & hazards
Nothing serious slips through the cracks
Report an incident or hazard in seconds, then work it through Report, Make safe, Investigate, Action and Closed. A notifiable incident counts down the written notice to WorkSafe until it's recorded.
- Every step noted with who did it
- 48-hour notice countdown in the site's own time
- Hazards not made safe after a day are flagged
- Closing one needs its own permission
Inspection ready
Know your score before the inspector does
Your site's readiness list, scored as a simple count and split by who asks: WorkSafe, NMI, EPA or your own. Each gap shows what an inspector could do about it, and what it could cost.
- Gaps ranked: could stop work, could be fined, good practice
- Certificates and evidence on every sign-off
- One-click compliance pack to print or save
- Hoists and air receivers keep their registration numbers
For groups
Every site's compliance on one screen
Running several workshops or service stations? Each shop keeps its own register, PINs and tablets, and head office sees them all, with a small, well-defined set of actions and a full audit log.
- Group standards pushed to chosen shops
- 30 and 90-day readiness trends and exports
- Emailed alerts and a Monday digest
- Roaming staff with one PIN at every shop
How it works
Set up in an afternoon, then it runs itself
Few fields are required, so records fill in over time rather than holding you up on day one.
Load your workshop
One press loads the common equipment, checks and readiness list for your kind of business. Remove what you don't have, or read in your own checklist PDFs.
Print the labels
Print QR labels with your own tag prefix and stick them on. Add your people, their skills and PINs, and pair a shop tablet.
Your team scans and ticks
Checks come due, people get reminded, and the evidence builds up on its own. You watch the dashboard turn green.
Questions
Frequently asked
Do I need a credit card to start the trial?
No. Create an account, give your business name and you're in, with the full app for 30 days.
What happens when the trial ends?
Your register is kept. Subscribe to WorkshopSafe to carry on where you left off. AutoShopMate Pro, which includes WorkshopSafe, is on its way.
Does WorkshopSafe replace a safety adviser?
No. WorkshopSafe keeps the records your obligations require, against the equipment they concern. It doesn't replace advice from a qualified safety professional.
