Incident log

Capture incidents before they disappear

When something goes wrong on site, it’s rarely at a convenient moment. Maybe an apprentice cut their hand on the table saw, or a board slid off the scaffolding without hitting anyone. Either way, it matters to write it down while the details are still fresh — even a near miss holds an important lesson.

Most people know the problem: the incident ends up as a message in the group chat or gets mentioned over morning coffee. A week later the details have faded, and when the inspector asks “What happened?”, you’re left empty-handed.

How it works

The incident log makes it quick to record what happened — right from your phone, on site. Pick whether it was a near miss or an accident, set the severity, describe the situation in your own words, and snap a few photos as evidence. The whole thing takes less than two minutes.

Both employees and owners can file reports. The owner gets notified immediately and can see all incidents collected in one place, filtered by severity and date. From there, spotting patterns is straightforward: does it always happen at the same machine? Is it the same type of task?

For serious incidents, the owner can fill in extended details — injured person, whether work was stopped, and whether the labor authority has been notified. All fields match what inspectors ask for.

What you get

Instead of scattered notes and forgotten conversations, you get a single log that’s ready to show. When the inspector stops by, you have documentation — date, location, description, photos, and who reported it. Incidents can link directly to your action plan, so prevention becomes action, not just words.
