Streamline EHS Compliance in Business Central with Safety Logbook
Workplace safety is a top priority, but managing incident reports, training logs, and compliance tasks can be overwhelming, especially when teams store everything in spreadsheets or scattered documents.
If your team uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, there’s a better way to manage safety data. Safety Logbook, a free app from Insight Works, brings structured, auditable EHS (Environmental, Health, and Safety) tracking right into Business Central. Streamline incident tracking and compliance, enhancing workplace safety and reducing risk, without leaving the system you already rely on.
Let’s take a look at how the app works and why more Business Central users are making the switch from manual tracking to a more innovative, integrated solution.
Replace Spreadsheets with a Purpose-Built Tool
Spreadsheets and paper forms are common starting points for tracking safety incidents, but they can lead to inconsistent records, missed steps, and added stress during audits.
Safety Logbook replaces those tools with a structured process inside Business Central. The app enables you to log incidents using predefined fields, assign follow-ups, and keep everything organized and accessible—all in one place.
Capture the Details That Matter
Each safety log includes the essential information you need to track incidents properly:
- What happened, and when it occurred
- How severe the risk was and how likely it is to recur
- Which employees were involved, and their roles
- Details about any injuries
- Follow-up actions with due dates and status
- Links to specific assets, departments, locations, or projects
By using consistent fields, you help your team record complete information every time and make reporting much easier.
Assign and Track Follow-Up Actions
Following through on safety issues is just as important as recording them. With Safety Logbook, you assign actions like training, equipment reviews, or work practice changes.
The app tracks when your team completes each action and connects those updates to the original incident. That means your team doesn’t need extra tools or guesswork, just a clear record of what they completed.
Manage Certifications and Training with Less Effort
You can also use Safety Logbook to track employee certifications and training sessions. When a training event takes place, you log it, list who attended, and set reminders based on certification expiration dates.
Later, you filter the data to see who needs recertification and when, which helps you plan and stay compliant without scrambling.
Prepare for Audits with Confidence
When audit time comes, your team needs clear and complete documentation. Safety Logbook helps you stay organized and ready.
You filter and generate reports based on date, department, employee, incident type, and more. Instead of searching through old files or piecing together logs, you access everything in just a few steps.
Quick Setup and No Cost
The Safety Logbook app is entirely free and available on Microsoft AppSource. The app works in cloud-hosted Business Central environments. Installation is simple, and a setup wizard helps you get started right away.
Safety Logbook comes with standard templates you can use immediately, and you customize log types and fields to match your company’s specific needs.
Bring Safety Management into Focus
Safety Logbook gives your team a clear, structured way to track incidents, manage follow-ups, and stay audit-ready—all within Business Central. The app reduces manual work, improves visibility, and helps everyone stay accountable.
