Safety communication – iPhone app from Sentis

Designed to enhance the delivery of pre-start safety meetings, the Sentis  Safe Leader iPhone App is described as a godsend for any supervisor, or group leader. Built around a variety of topics, the app is a tool to help make meetings both interesting and effective.

The app is based on four practical functions for everyday use: Activities – prompts for daily action to help focus a team’s attention on safety; Questions – aimed at stimulating positive safety behaviour; Conversations – topics to get your team talking about safety; and Information – facts and statistics to help reinforce safety messages.

Synchronised with the iPhone camera functionality, the app is also said to give users an integrated forum to: photograph hazards; add notes and observations; set GPS coordinates for the location; and e-mail reports for internal action.

Other features highlighted by Sentis include a ‘favourites list’ for quick retrieval of preferred content; a built-in ‘how to’ guide; and ‘help’ videos.

Also new, the Sentis Safety Observation Tool is designed to simplify safety reporting and performance.
Tailored to the iPad interface, the application is said to feature a user-friendly dashboard with customisable safety observation categories. Capable of being operated offline, where Internet connectivity is limited, the tool allows for streamlined, flexible observation and reporting in the field.

Both apps are available via the iTunes app store. For more information, visit www.sentis.net
