INDUSTRIES / MINING

Know the hazardKeep crews safeEvery shift

Mine sites change shift by shift: new faces, moving equipment, rotating crews. OQSHA keeps risk assessments, pre-start checks, permits and corrective actions on one record, even where coverage drops out.

Built for the way work actually happens

01

Conditions change every shift

Ground conditions, blast zones and haul routes change every shift. A risk assessment written yesterday may not reflect the hazards the crew will actually encounter today.

02

Equipment checks stay on paper

An operator flags a fault on the pre-start check, but there is no system linking that defect to a work order, a repair and a sign-off — so the same issue appears on tomorrow’s checklist.

03

PPE is assumed, not proven

PPE records are kept in a manual stores log. There is no quick way to confirm that a worker’s harness, hard hat or gas detector is within its inspection and replacement date.

How OQSHA fits mining operations

Configure SOP-aligned workflows while keeping traceability automatic.

  • Task-based HIRA that crews review before the shift starts
  • Pre-start and equipment inspections with defects routed to maintenance
  • Permits for high-risk tasks with staged approvals and isolation checks
  • PPE issue, expiry and compliance checks per person and crew

Common use cases

The workflows teams run daily, now connected and auditable.

Crew reviewing work at the start of a shift

Shift handovers

“The next crew doesn’t know what changed.”

  • Open actions and permits in one view
  • Handover notes on the record
Technician inspecting heavy equipment

Mobile equipment pre-starts

“The defect was written down. Nobody fixed it.”

  • Defects become tracked actions
  • Asset history by machine
Workers in PPE at an industrial site

PPE and contractor readiness

“We can’t prove who had the right gear.”

  • PPE issue and expiry per person
  • Induction and training checks
Team reviewing inspection results

Safety audits and inspections

“Audit week takes over the site.”

  • Scheduled audits with photo evidence
  • Findings closed with proof

Proof and governance, built into daily work

Less chasing. More traceability.

Shift-ready risk

Controls reviewed before work starts.

Defects to closure

Findings don’t get lost between shifts.

PPE on record

Issue and expiry visible per person.

Audit-ready packs

Ready before the request arrives.

Before you ask IT or procurement…

Most teams ask these questions before rolling out OQSHA.

Typically 2–6 weeks, depending on the number of sites, the modules you enable (Permit to Work, Inspections, Safety Alerts, HIRA, Visitor Management), and how much historical data you're bringing over. Most customers start with a pilot site, then roll out site by site.

Nothing special. Field teams use the OQSHA mobile app on Android or iOS phones and tablets; admins and managers use the web portal in any modern browser.

Yes. OQSHA is built for sites where connectivity is patchy: basements, towers under construction, plant floors. Field users can raise permits, safety alerts and inspections with no signal, including photos and attachments. Everything syncs automatically once the device reconnects.

Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, hosted on AWS in your chosen region. For organizations that need full control, OQSHA can also be deployed on-premise within your own infrastructure.

No. OQO runs as a captive AI. It works on your safety data within the OQSHA environment and never sends it to a public model or the open internet.

Yes. We support Single Sign-On and integration with common HRIS, ERP, and directory systems. Custom integrations are scoped with our implementation team during onboarding.

Yes. Historical permits, inspections, and incident records can be imported during onboarding, usually alongside the pilot, so your analytics and audit history are complete from day one.

Yes. Each organization runs in its own isolated tenant. Your templates, records, users, and dashboards are never visible to or shared with any other customer.

Built-in dashboards across permits, incidents, and inspections, filterable by site, zone, and time period. They're scoped automatically to what each user is allowed to see.

A named implementation contact through rollout, then standard support with response-time SLAs based on your plan. App updates are delivered over the air, so field users always have the latest version without reinstalling.
