Streamlining Your Safety Workflow

The Peoplesafe iOS App (from version 1.5.0)  offers a range of pre-built Shortcuts designed to simplify common tasks, saving you time and ensuring accurate record-keeping.

Here's a breakdown of the key Shortcuts available:

Open Peoplesafe

This Shortcut does exactly what it says – it quickly opens the Peoplesafe app. While seemingly simple, this Shortcut can be incredibly useful when combined with Automations. For example, you could set an Automation to open the Peoplesafe app automatically when you arrive at a specific location (geofence), prompting you to check in or start an activity.

Start Timed Activity

This Shortcut simplifies the process of logging the start of a new task or activity. Whether you're beginning a high-risk activity, starting a new project, or simply switching tasks, the "Start Activity" Shortcut allows you to quickly record the details in Peoplesafe. This can include the details of the activity, duration of the activity, and optonal Welfare Check intervals.

Stop Timed Activity

When you finish a task or activity, the "Stop Activity" Shortcut makes logging the completion just as easy. It ensures that you have completed your work activities safely.

Check In / Out

This Shortcut streamlines the process of logging your arrival at a worksite or location. With a single tap, you can quickly check in with Peoplesafe, recording your presence and location.

Just as easily as you checked in, this shortcut allows you to quickly log your departure. Combine this with the "Check In" Shortcut and you have a seamless way to manage your on-site presence.

Start Check In Timer (Subscription Required)

This Shortcut, available for organizations with the Check In Timer subscription, integrates seamlessly with iOS Shortcuts and Automations to enhance time management and compliance. It allows users to initiate a timed alarm directly within Peoplesafe, linked to the length of their workday. This timer runs in the background and can be configured to provide alerts at specific intervals or at the end of the designated work period.

Combining Shortcuts for Powerful Automation

The real power of Peoplesafe Shortcuts comes from combining them with iOS Automations and even combining multiple Shortcuts. Here are some examples:

• Automated Check-In: Set an Automation to trigger the "Check In" Shortcut automatically when you arrive at a specific location (geofence). This eliminates the need to manually check in, ensuring you're always logged in when you're on-site.

• End-of-Day Wrap-Up: Create a Shortcut that combines the "Stop Activity" and "Check Out" Shortcuts. This allows you to quickly and efficiently log the end of your workday with a single tap or even an automatic trigger when you arrive home.

• Location-Based Reminders: Combine the "Open Peoplesafe" Shortcut with a location-based Automation. For example, set your phone to open Peoplesafe automatically when you arrive at a particular worksite, reminding you to check in or start an activity.

• Time-Based Reminders: Set an Automation to remind you to start a new activity after a certain period of time. This is particularly useful for tasks that require regular logging or monitoring.
