This guide is designed for users of the mobile version of our Safety Incident app. If you haven't already done so, please download the app for Android or Apple to get started. The Safety Incident app is compatible with both smartphones and tablets and can also be accessed from your computer via our website.
Getting Started
Use your credentials to sign in to the app from the Settings tab. Once logged in, you will see past incidents on the Incident Home Screen. Incidents are color-coded to indicate whether they have been submitted or are still in progress.
To create a new incident, tap the green “Start New Incident” button. Enter an incident name and select details from various dropdown menus. The Incident Name and Incident Type fields are required, while others may provide additional useful details.
Incident Types
Incidents can be categorized under:
Injury
Illness
Near Miss
Vehicle
General Liability
Property Damage
Incidents may be recorded for employees or third parties. If your administrator has prefilled locations, they will be available for selection; otherwise, you can manually enter the location.
For employee-related incidents, the Activity dropdown helps classify the event (e.g., normal activity vs. overtime). Certain incident types may allow Geo-Tagging for location tracking.
