Forsite

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.

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.

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.

For Your Role

What It Means for Your Team

levels in the hierarchy of control

One

edit updates every linked hazard

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.

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.

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.

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.

How it Works

How Forsite Makes It Easy

Build or import your controls

Create a control record with its hierarchy type, effectiveness rating, inspection interval and description, or bring your existing set in by CSV.

Attach controls to a hazard

Attach any number of controls to a hazard, and its control measures text is drafted for you from what you have added.

Approve the residual rating

Review the residual rating Forsite recommends from your best control, then, as a competent person, decide whether to apply it.

Apply across the register

Roll a control out to many hazards at once, and later edits propagate to every linked hazard with live usage counts.
