Checklists are an indispensable OSHA self-inspection tool. Managers (literally) check all the safety boxes during regular audits to ensure every standard is addressed.
While paper or Excel-based checklists remain common, many organizations are adopting Safety Management Software (SMS) that includes a digital checklist system.
Safesite is a free safety management software with a simple inspection and checklist feature. Our users rely on checklists to conduct fast and efficient safety audits. One user says the app is, “Easy to use and navigate. Easy to track and trend all our inspections and near misses.”
