Safety Events
Safety event reporting your teams will actually use
Make reporting painless so nothing goes unrecorded. Capture incidents, near misses, observations and hazards from web and mobile in a few taps, notify the right people automatically, run investigations and close out corrective actions - all with a complete audit trail.
Why teams switch
Retire the paper accident book
When reporting is difficult, it gets skipped and the near misses, observations, and hazards that go unreported can become tomorrow’s accidents. Safety Mate® makes reporting effortless, turning every safety event into an opportunity to learn, improve, and prevent harm.
Investigate properly
Launch investigations from any event, record findings, assign corrective actions with owners and due dates, and monitor everything to close-out.
- Investigation workflows
- Corrective actions with reminders
- Complete audit trail
Prevent the next one
Live dashboards and trend analysis show where events cluster, so you can act on patterns - and RIDDOR reportable events are flagged for reporting.

Frictionless reporting
Capture safety events at the moment they happen
The best safety data is captured on the spot, not remembered at a desk. Whether it's an incident, a near miss, an observation or a hazard, Safety Mate® guides reporters through standardised fields, captures photos and location, and notifies key stakeholders automatically the moment a report is submitted.
Multiple event types
Incidents, near misses, observations and hazards recorded with consistent fields.
Automatic notifications
The right managers are alerted the moment a report is submitted.
Evidence attached
Photos, documents and relevant details captured with the report.
Observations
Turn what your teams notice into action
Most incidents are preceded by something somebody saw. Observations give every worker a way to flag what they notice in seconds - so concerns can be dealt with in good time.
Reported in seconds
A few taps from any device, with photos attached on the spot.
Routed automatically
The right people are notified and actions assigned before it becomes an incident.
Feeds your trends
Observations roll into your dashboards as leading indicators, alongside incidents and near misses.
Hazards
Get hazards fixed before they hurt anyone
A trailing cable, a damaged guard, a blocked fire exit - hazards are cheap to fix and expensive to ignore. Workers report them in seconds, and every hazard gets actioned with an owner, a due date and a fix.
Snap it, send it
A photo and a few taps from any device captures the hazard on the spot.
Owned until fixed
Corrective actions are assigned with owners and due dates and tracked to close-out.
Feeds your risk picture
Hazard reports feed can back into your risk assessments and risk register.
Investigations
From report to root cause to close-out
Every event record carries its full history: the initial report, investigation findings, corrective actions and sign-off. Nothing is closed until the actions that prevent recurrence are actually done.
Structured investigations
Record findings and root causes with a consistent methodology.
Corrective actions tracked
Actions assigned with owners, due dates and automatic reminders.
RIDDOR-ready records
Flag reportable incidents and have the data you need ready for the HSE.
Learn and prevent
See the patterns before they become accidents
Live analytics dashboards roll every report up into trends by location, and event type. Leadership sees lost time injury frequency rate (LTIFR), open actions and event rates in real time and the data is export-ready for executive analyis and audits.
Realtime Data Analysis
Event rates, LTIFR, open actions and completion status updated in real time.
Trend analysis
Spot clusters by location, activity or time - and intervene early.
Exportable reports
Professional reports for executive presentations and regulatory compliance.
