Build Your Controls Once and Apply Them Across Every Hazard

A reusable library of control measures graded by the hierarchy of control. Apply them across hazards in bulk, and get a recommended residual rating based on how effective your best control really is.

One Library, Applied Everywhere It's Needed

In most systems, controls are free text, typed a little differently on every hazard. In Forsite a control is a real record: its hierarchy-of-control type, from elimination down to PPE, an effectiveness rating, an inspection interval and a description. Attach any number of controls to any hazard, and the hazard's control measures text is drafted for you from what you attached.

Controls Library

Graded by the Hierarchy of Control

Every control carries its type: elimination, substitution, isolation, engineering, administrative or PPE. Anyone reading a hazard can see whether it relies on engineering or on posters.

Recommendations You Approve

Based on your best attached control, Forsite recommends a residual risk rating. A competent person reviews it and decides whether to apply it. The system informs the judgement; it does not make it for you.

Apply to Many Hazards at Once

Roll a new control out across every relevant hazard on a site, or across your company register, in one action, with a preview of the recommended residual before you commit.

Edits That Propagate

Rename or reword a control and every linked hazard's control measures update to match. Usage counts show exactly how many hazards, and how many critical risks, rely on each control.

Controls Library

What the worker actually reads

The control measures shown on a hazard in the app are drafted by Forsite from the controls you have attached, not typed out by hand. That text stays current as you add, edit or remove controls, so what lives in your library is what reaches the people doing the work on site.

Who Benefits - And How

How the Controls Library helps you

Site Managers

See what's protecting the site

Open any hazard on your site and see the controls actually in place, each graded from elimination down to PPE, so you can tell at a glance whether a risk is held by an engineering control or by a sign on the wall.

H&S Managers

Maintain your controls in one place

Build each control once with its hierarchy type, effectiveness rating and inspection interval, then apply it across the register in bulk. Edit it in one place and every linked hazard updates, so your standard never drifts between sites.

Contractors

Know the controls before you start

On every hazard near your work, the required controls are written out plainly rather than left as vague notes, so you know exactly what is expected of you before you set foot on site.

Property Owners

One standard across the portfolio

Every site draws on the same graded library, so the same hazard is controlled the same way wherever it appears. When your approach to the hierarchy of control is questioned, you can show one consistent, evidence-based standard.

The Problem we're Solving

When every control is free text, none of them line up

Controls that live as loose text on each hazard drift out of sync and give you no honest read on how well a risk is really held.
Free-text controls
Each hazard carries its own hand-typed version of the same control, so nothing lines up and you cannot report across them.
Changes that go stale
Update a control in one place and every other hazard keeps the old wording until someone remembers to re-edit it by hand.
Residual ratings by guesswork
Residual ratings get set with nothing tying them to how effective the control really is, so the number is a guess rather than a judgement.
