In order to create Safety Logs within a form, users will need Create permissions for the corresponding form.


Safety Logs is a powerful tool designed to centralize safety and compliance data, allowing teams to manage all project and company logs in one place. Safety Logs can be created in your Project or Company's Compliance module.

SiteMax offers two ways of creating Safety Logs - Either manually within the Compliance module of your Company or Project Dashboard, or through Forms in your Site, Safety, or Equipment reports.


Creating Manual Safety Logs

To create a new safety log, click "+ Add Safety Log" in your Compliance module.

A new screen will appear with the following fields:

  • Title*: Enter the title of your Safety Log. This is the information that will distinguish the purpose of your Safety Log.

  • Type*: Select the type of Safety Log (ie; Risk, Hazard, Maintenance, Incident, Inspection, Control, Emergency Drill).
