Take5 for Safety

Take5 For Safety is a small and simple tool to help you assess and control those hazards associated with the work task you are going to be completing.

It is designed as a simple checklist that asks questions prompting you to think about what the task you are going to do. The advantage of this app is that it is a standalone app that does not require you to have an active internet connection or create accounts.

This app generates a pdf for you of your competed Take5 and allows you to save or share based on the services you have on your device.

Another feature of this app is that it is written by people in the field and with the feedback from users of take5 booklets that are commonly found on Australian worksites.

Overall this app features the following:
- 3 Page checklist with a prompt at the bottom of each page to save your data before moving to the next page,
- Pdf rendering and sharing/saving of your finished Take5. The pdf - consists of a single page,
- Does not require an active connection (only required for address information but required to complete the Take5 and there is the option to manually place the address),
- Questions prompt the user to think about the hazards that may be present,
- Simple GPS location that is used to auto generate an address for fast autofilling. In some instances there may be no address - for these circumstances - use the location field to add in the relevant data.

If you have any suggestions for features please place them in the review section and if possible it will be included in a future release.

**Warning - this app does not tell you to do a task or not. This is not that sort of app. It can only help with assisting you in identifying the hazards and helping you record those controls you will need to have in place.
It also does not show a risk matrix. There are many different risk matrixes out there and far more interpretations on them. Adding a matrix that will be different to what you are likely to be using and not have the correct training for is for just adds extra complexity **
