Get Started with Hazard Reporting

We have created this guide to walk you through the process of reporting a hazard and how to close them once resolved.

Reporting a Hazard

Managing H&S hazards is vital within every business, that's why we've introduced our handy Hazard reporting tool to BrightSafe. With this, you and your employees can record any potential hazards in just a few simple steps. Let's get started!

Reporting a Hazard

  1. Click 'Report a hazard' to start adding your hazard.
  2. Add a name for your hazard. 
  3. Select the site of the hazard.
  4. Enter the location of the hazard. 
  5. Choose a hazard reporter - this could be yourself or if you're adding the hazard on behalf of someone else just select their name.
  6. Add your hazard details including as much information as you need.
  7. Click 'Report this hazard' to save and report your hazard. 

Closing a Hazard

If you've set up the 'Receive hazard notification' permissions you'll receive an email notification to let you know when a hazard is added. Just follow the handy link in this email to view the details of the hazard. Or, click the three dots in the top right corner of the hazard you'd like to close and select 'Edit'. 

Once closed the hazard will move to the 'Closed' section of hazard reporting on your account, so that you'll always have this to hand if you need it.
