The Safety log window contains summary information for information entered in a Safety Violation/Injury or Illness Report Document Window. Use the Safety module to record information about safety violations, injuries, illnesses, and to keep records for OSHA. See the Safety Overview for more information.

You can use the Safety log window in the following ways:

• For collaborating and assuring protocol in safety violation notification between several parties.
• To assist in defense against third-party lawsuits following accidents.
• To generate a historical safety performance database to help select future contractors.
• For notifying contractors of their safety lapses.
• For automating OSHA report generation.
• For recording the response rate of contractors to problems, and to illustrate specific contractor trends toward improvement/relaxation in their awareness of safety issues.
• To analyze safety risks by manager, location, trade, construction phase, contractor, or other factors.

From this window, you can look at details of a safety notice, add a new safety notice, or Generate a Safety Notice Based on an Existing One. You can also print a report or a form.
