FAQ

Questions, answered

Which tasks should we assess first?

Start with the highest-frequency or heaviest tasks; risk scoring surfaces the jobs most likely to cause injury so you can prioritize.

Does it account for team lifts and lift aids?

Yes — model controls like team lifting and mechanical aids and re-score to confirm the task is now within safe limits.

Can supervisors run these on the floor?

Yes, from any mobile device, with photos and notes attached to each assessment.
