“Safesite helps us efficiently and effectively identify and communicate hazards to the supervisors in the field, while giving us the ability to verify and track corrective actions. The customizable templates coupled with the detailed analytics allow us to focus on the jobsites and hazards with the highest amount of risk.”

—Kasey Wiesin, MarketOne Builders

“You can quickly access hazards reporting and log the situation with a couple clicks. You can view hazards in the dashboard for a breakdown by percent corrected, risk assessment, severity, location on project, root cause, reporting personnel, hazards per day and others. It’s an excellent in-depth tracking tool for hazards; during implementation, spend time focused on this specific report. The amount of information gathered can discourage employees from reporting when they don’t understand the value. I would give it four stars. It works offline and syncs to a dashboard when back online; it also has weekly user/admin webinars for deployment with great customer service.”
