Simple Safety Action Item Tracking Log Template


What Get’s Measured, Get’s Managed

If your workplace is not tracking safety action items, you are missing a real opportunity to show progress, build culture, create a safer work environment, and manage your safety systems. As Peter Drucker is quoted as saying,

What get’s measured, get’s managed.

You don’t need to go out and pay hundreds of dollars per year, per user, or any variation thereof. Excel (or even Google Sheets) can be an effective method of tracking open safety action items and ensuring that those items move towards the ultimate goal of completion.
