Safety Walks
Walk the site, log photo observations, and turn findings into tracked work — not lines in a report nobody reads. Ad-hoc first, fully offline.
From observation to fixed hazard
Fast capture in the field and a real escalation path from finding to verified fix.
Photo observations in seconds
The observation logger is built for speed: photo first, severity chip, short note, done. GPS and area context attach automatically. Four severities — high, medium, low, and Positive, because recognizing good practice is half of a working safety culture.
- Photo-first capture with camera always visible
- Four severities including Positive for good practice
- Location and walk context attached without typing
- Captured in seconds without breaking your stride
Findings become work — promote or escalate
The walk report that nobody reads is the industry default. Here, every finding has a next step: promote it to a tracked issue with an owner and due date, or escalate a serious one straight to a full incident investigation. Photo and location carry over either way.
- One-tap promote to issue — evidence and location carry over
- Issues follow the full lifecycle to verified closure
- Escalate to incident opens an investigation with the finding attached
- Open findings stay visible on the Safety Hub until resolved
Built for walking, on or off signal
The runner is designed for one hand and a moving inspector — big targets, progress tracking, camera always in reach. Offline? Observations queue locally with a 'Saved offline' confirmation and sync automatically when you're back in signal.
- One-handed capture with big targets for gloved hands
- Fully offline — queued observations sync automatically
- Progress tracking shows areas walked as you go
- Dead zones on site don't interrupt the walk
More in the Safety Walks module
The supporting register — everything else the module carries, on the record.
- Positive observations
- Positive is a first-class severity — recognizing tagged rigging or good housekeeping builds the reporting culture.
- GPS and area context
- Every observation carries its location and walk context automatically — no typing.
- Safety Hub visibility
- Open findings stay on the Safety Hub needs-attention feed until the linked issue is verified closed.
- Verified closure lifecycle
- Promoted findings become safety-category issues with owners, due dates, and closure that must be verified.
- Role-based access
- RBAC decides who can walk, who can promote findings, and who configures walk policies.
Every view of the walk-down

How it works
Four steps from starting a walk to a verified fix.
Start a walk
Pick the workfront and go — it's a clean ad-hoc walk with the camera one tap away.
Why switch from the notebook walk?
The traditional site walk produces a report. This one produces fixed hazards.
The old way
- Findings scribbled in a notebook, typed up hours later — half the context lost.
- Photos in a camera roll with no link to the finding they document.
- The walk report is emailed, filed, and forgotten. Nobody owns the fixes.
- Serious findings wait for the weekly meeting to become anyone's problem.
- No signal on site means no digital capture at all.
With Construction Hub
- Observations captured in seconds at the hazard, photo and severity attached.
- Every photo is bound to its observation, walk, and location.
- Findings promote to issues with owners and due dates — visible until verified closed.
- Serious findings escalate to incident investigations in one tap.
- Fully offline capture — observations queue and sync automatically.
Built for walking the site
One-handed capture for a moving inspector — big targets, camera in reach, and no dependence on signal.
- Photo-first observation logger with severity chips
- Offline queue with 'Saved offline' confirmation — syncs itself
- Progress tracking shows areas walked as you go
