The problem this software solves

Defective scaffold or ladder

Reported by voice or chat, defective scaffold or ladder is caught late and logged with no evidence tied to the asset.

Uninspected MEWP

Uninspected MEWP goes unrecorded between rounds, so there is no proof it was found, owned, or fixed.

Faulty fall-arrest equipment

On a manual round faulty fall-arrest equipment is easy to miss, and hard to defend to an auditor after the fact.

Missing edge protection

Missing edge protection lands in a photo thread with no owner, deadline, or audit trail behind it.

How the software solves it

InspectWrk runs the whole working at height inspection cycle on one mobile system, from the scan to the signed-off report. Here is the loop your team follows.

  1. 1

    Inspect

    Open the right working at height checklist by scanning the asset or location QR tag.

  2. 2

    Capture

    Record photos, readings, and signatures, offline where signal is poor.

  3. 3

    Find

    AI flags likely defects from the photo and the inspector confirms or overrides.

  4. 4

    Correct

    A failed item becomes an owned action with a severity and a deadline.

  5. 5

    Verify

    The finding stays open until a named approver signs off proof of the fix.

  6. 6

    Report

    A branded report generates on close-out and dashboards update across sites.

Workflow

How Does a Working at Height Inspection Cycle Run from Field Capture to Audit-Ready Reporting?

The inspection workflow, end to end: Plan → Inspect → Capture evidence → Record findings → Correct → Re-inspect → Report. Every step happens on one system, so nothing falls between the field and the office.

  1. 1

    Configure the Work at Height Template

    Your controls become a mobile template with required photos and readings on access equipment and scaffolds, ladders and MEWPs, fall-arrest and anchor points, edge protection and guardrails, and permit to work and rescue plan, aligned to Work at Height Regulations, LOLER, and ISO 45001, so every site works to the same standard from day one.

  2. 2

    Capture the Check in the Field

    Field teams complete the work at height inspection on iOS or Android, offline where signal is poor, recording equipment inspection tag, anchor-point record, and permit photo against each point before a named sign-off can close the round.

  3. 3

    Route Findings to Verified Closure

    A failed item such as defective scaffold or ladder becomes an owned task with a severity and a deadline, and it stays open until photo proof of the fix is reviewed, so defects do not resurface unnoticed.

  4. 4

    Report Performance

    Every check feeds live dashboards and branded exports, so safety officers and supervisors see completion, overdue actions, and risk per site without assembling a report by hand.

Capabilities

What the software handles for working at height inspection

The capabilities that matter for this workflow, and what your team can do with each one.

Programme Scheduling and Statutory Clocks

Across multi-site working at height inspection rounds, working At Height Inspection cadence is enforced per asset: the next check is booked the moment the last one closes, so nothing silently slips off the plan.

Structured Field Capture

Where working at height inspection evidence has to hold up, required-field working at height inspection capture means no skipped questions and no missing evidence, even when the round is rushed.

AI-assisted Evidence Capture

On every working at height inspection cycle, AI assists working at height inspection capture by reading photos for common faults, so field teams confirm rather than transcribe.

Portfolio Dashboards

For HSE & Safety teams running working at height inspection, operations Directors see working at height inspection completion, overdue actions, and risk hotspots across the HSE & Safety portfolio without assembling a report.

Audit-ready Exports

In HSE & Safety working at height inspection operations, branded PDF packs and searchable working at height inspection history assemble HSE & Safety audit evidence for clients, insurers, and regulators in minutes.

Offline-first Mobile Apps

Across the working at height inspection portfolio, no signal, no problem: working at height inspection evidence is captured on-device and uploaded the moment the inspector is back in range.

Coverage

What Does Work at Height Inspection Cover?

Work at height inspection checks access equipment and scaffolds, ladders and MEWPs, fall-arrest and anchor points, edge protection and guardrails, permit to work and rescue plan, and weather and ground conditions. Safety officers and supervisors capture a photo and a reading on each point, offline where signal is poor, and a named reviewer signs the round off, so every work at height record proves what was checked, when, and by whom, and stays aligned to Work at Height Regulations, LOLER, and ISO 45001.

Before You Switch

Common Questions Before You Start

We already run working at height checks on paper. Do we have to change our process?

No. Your existing checklist becomes a mobile template, so the same checks run with photos, timestamps, and named sign-off attached. Only the capture changes.

Will field teams actually use it?

The check runs on the device they already carry, works offline where signal drops, and opens the right checklist from a QR scan, so there is no typing from memory.

What happens when a defect is found?

It becomes an owned action with a severity and a deadline, and stays open until a named approver verifies the fix with photo proof.

Frequently Asked Questions About Working at Height Inspection Software

What does Working At Height Inspection Software check in work at height inspection?

Working At Height Inspection Software runs work at height inspection covering access equipment and scaffolds, ladders and MEWPs, fall-arrest and anchor points, edge protection and guardrails, and permit to work and rescue plan. Each point is captured on mobile with a photo, and a reading where one applies, then a named reviewer signs the round off before it can close. The same template runs on every site, so safety officers and supervisors get one consistent standard across the work at height portfolio, and every record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

Which work at height problems does Working At Height Inspection Software help catch?

The programme targets the failures that matter most: defective scaffold or ladder, uninspected MEWP, faulty fall-arrest equipment, and missing edge protection. When a check fails, it becomes an assigned task with an owner, a severity, and a deadline, and it stays open until photo proof of the fix is reviewed. Repeat failures are flagged, so teams fix the cause rather than the symptom. For safety officers and supervisors, that turns defective scaffold or ladder from a note lost in a chat thread into a tracked action with verified closure across every work at height site.

Which standards does Working At Height Inspection Software support?

Working At Height Inspection Software keeps work at height work aligned to Work at Height Regulations, LOLER, and ISO 45001. The photos, readings, and sign-offs each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot close and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, safety officers and supervisors export a branded pack and a searchable history for the site in scope, built from the live record with equipment inspection tag, anchor-point record, and permit photo rather than rebuilt from folders and email. That keeps evidence defensible at any time, not only in the week before an audit.

Can teams run work at height checks offline and across multiple sites?

Yes. Field teams complete work at height checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing equipment inspection tag, anchor-point record, and permit photo in the field, and each record syncs when the connection returns with its timestamp and author intact. Because the same template runs on every site, safety officers and supervisors get one consistent standard across the work at height portfolio and a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, without waiting for a site to email a report.

How do teams roll out Working At Height Inspection Software?

Most work at height teams start on one template and a single cluster of sites, watching completion and closure time from day one. The checks that cause the most chasing today go first: access equipment and scaffolds, ladders and MEWPs, fall-arrest and anchor points, edge protection and guardrails, and permit to work and rescue plan. Once field teams trust the digital record and findings reach verified closure, the same template scales across the estate, and new sites inherit the approved programme on day one so the standard does not drift. Safety officers and supervisors keep one view of the work across every location as the portfolio grows.

Does Working At Height Inspection Software work with a CMMS or asset register?

Working At Height Inspection Software runs alongside the systems you already use. Findings and readings can flow into a CMMS, ERP, or asset register through the API, so those systems hold verified field data instead of re-keyed notes. It owns the part they were never built for: offline capture, photo evidence, and a fast audit pack built from equipment inspection tag, anchor-point record, and permit photo. Teams keep work orders and finance where they are, and add the work at height inspection layer where the evidence is captured, so the record and the work order finally agree.
