Works offline

An offline health and safety app for the yard, the basement and the cab

Works in the yard, the basement and the cab. An offline health and safety app saves every record to the phone first, shows “Pending sync” until signal returns, then syncs on its own. That is how every jobsafe module behaves, not a mode you switch on.

jobsafe on a phone while offline: the banner says you are offline and changes are saved on this device and will sync when you reconnect, the sync chip reads Offline, 1 pending, and a near-miss report filed offline shows Open, Low and an amber Pending sync pill beside its status.

Try it

Turn the signal off and file a report

The same three fields a driver sees. Nothing here leaves your browser.

A three-field report. Try it with signal off, then turn signal back on.

On the phone

Nothing saved yet. Flip signal off and file one.

The real thing does this in every module. Nothing here leaves your browser.

How sync works

From the phone to London, in order

An offline incident reporting app is only useful if what you typed in the cab is what the office sees. Three rules make sure of it.

  1. Changes queue in order and retry

    Every save goes into the outbox on the phone. When signal returns they go up in the order you made them, and a failed attempt is retried, not dropped.

  2. Each record shows “Pending sync”

    A report, a permit or a checklist that has not reached the cloud yet says so on the record, so nobody assumes the office has seen it.

  3. The newest edit wins on every device

    If two people edit the same record while apart, the latest change is the one that stands, on every device, and the device that lost is told.

Install it

Add it to the home screen

jobsafe is an installable web app. On iPhone, Android and desktop you add it to the home screen from the browser and it opens full-screen like an app, with its own icon, offline included. There is nothing to download from an app store and nothing for IT to roll out.

Once installed and signed in, the phone opens jobsafe with no signal at all, shows the records it holds and takes new ones. A native store app is not available yet.

Your team is invited by email by your administrator, and installs from the link they receive.

Built for gloves and glare

Made for the hands that will use it

A yard in January and a cab in July are the conditions it was tested in.

  • WCAG 2.2 AA

    Tested with axe on every screen and with a keyboard, so a screen reader and a mouse-free desk both work.

  • 320px screens

    Laid out for the smallest phones the depot hands out, not just the one in the design file.

  • Large targets

    Buttons and fields sized for a gloved thumb and a moving cab.

  • Typed signature option

    Where a name must be signed, it can be typed, for the days a finger on glass will not do.

  • Readable in glare

    High-contrast ink on a light ground, the same tokens as this site.

Works offline in every module: Incident & near-miss reporting · RIDDOR 2013 · Permits to work · Risk assessments & bowtie · and it all stays in the UK.
