For UK transport, logistics and warehousing operators

Health and safety software for transport and logistics

The fine is set by what could have happened

Since 2016 the Sentencing Council guideline has weighed the harm an operation risked, not only the harm it caused, and set the fine against turnover. Which makes the forklift near miss nobody logged the most expensive record you do not have. jobsafe gives every depot, yard and cab an evidenced, timestamped incident and near-miss trail: the thing your customer’s bid team, your underwriter and an HSE inspector all ask to see.

  • Built for UK multi-site operators
  • Evidence for PQQs and audits
  • Works offline in yards and cold stores

The public register

Your safety record is public.

The HSE publishes convictions and enforcement notices on a register anyone can search by company name. Your customers’ procurement teams can read it, and in a sector where contracts turn on health and safety performance, they do.

Alongside the accident frequency rate and RIDDOR history your tender documents already ask for, the record you keep is either a commercial asset or a commercial problem. You do not get to decide which after the fact.

Asked of you

Four questions with only one good answer

None of these are asked by the people driving the trucks. They are asked by auditors, underwriters, customers and inspectors, and they are all asked of you.

  1. 01

    A customer’s PQQ asks for your accident frequency rate over three years. Can you produce one?

    An accident frequency rate is arithmetic performed on data you either captured or you did not. jobsafe gives you the half that is hard to reconstruct: every incident, dated, categorised and attributable to a site, so the answer is a report rather than an estimate.

  2. 02

    Your near-miss numbers are suspiciously low. An auditor knows what that means.

    A near-zero near-miss count does not read as a safe operation. It reads as a reporting failure, and a sudden spike reads as a system that has only just started working. Capture that takes a few taps is how you get a number that means something.

  3. 03

    The shift manager knew on Tuesday. You found out at the monthly review.

    Real-time alerts put the report in front of the office the moment it is submitted, and the dashboard breaks reports down by site, so a pattern at one depot is visible while it is still one depot’s problem.

  4. 04

    An inspector asks for three years of records. Where are they, exactly?

    Every report is timestamped and exportable, held in one place across every depot, yard and vehicle, rather than across three ring binders, a shared drive and a supervisor’s phone.

By depot, and the group

A report rather than an estimate

Every incident, dated, categorised and attributable to a site. The dashboard breaks reports down by site, so each depot, yard or contract can be looked at on its own and against the others.

  • Employed, agency and subcontractedjobsafe is licensed per user, so everyone reports through the same app, and every report automatically carries who, where and when.
  • The numerator, done properlyA complete, dated, categorised incident count you can filter by site and period, and export. The hours-worked figure comes from your payroll.
  • Exportable for the auditEvery report is timestamped and exportable, with its photographs, video and documents linked to the record.

Why the record matters

Win the tender. Keep the cover. Survive the audit.

Operators rarely lose a contract on rate alone. They lose it on a safety record they could not evidence when the bid was due.

Tenders are scored on it

Retailers, manufacturers and public bodies score health and safety performance directly: RIDDOR counts, accident frequency rate, enforcement notices and prosecutions over the last three to five years. FORS and CLOCS put the same questions in writing. A bid that cannot evidence its record loses to one that can.

How the fine is actually calculated

Since 2016 the Sentencing Council guideline has set health and safety fines against turnover rather than profit, and against the harm risked rather than only the harm caused. For a large organisation the published range reaches £10m, and £20m for corporate manslaughter. On logistics margins, a turnover-based fine is a different kind of number.

Cover, and the person who signs

Employers’ liability and motor fleet renewals turn on claims history and on whether you can show the risk is managed. And under section 37 of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, where an offence is attributable to the neglect of a director or manager, that individual is personally liable, with disqualification available to the court.

No. jobsafe does not track vehicles, score driving, or replace your tachograph, telematics or camera platform, and it will not tell you who braked hard on the A14. It is the incident and near-miss reporting layer that sits alongside those systems: what happened, where, when, with the evidence attached and an auditable trail from raised to closed. Operators generally have plenty of vehicle data and very little on the near miss in the yard that nobody wrote down.

Three years of evidence starts today.

Book 30 minutes and we will show you what jobsafe would put in front of a customer’s auditor, an underwriter or the HSE.
