PPE issue & inspection records
Track the PPE issued to every worker and when it's next due for replacement or inspection - and see exactly what's overdue with a hand-built due-date runway that makes the picture visible the moment you open the app, not months later.
Every PPE item plotted on a single shared axis by days until its due date - overdue items sit left of "now", due-soon and OK items sit right, and items due around the same time stack into extra rows instead of overlapping.
Hard hat, hi-vis vest/jacket, safety boots, gloves, eye protection, ear protection, safety harness, respiratory mask/RPE and fall arrest lanyard cover the common ones - type a free-text "Other" for anything that doesn't fit.
Set a replacement/inspection interval in months per item, since different PPE has wildly different lifespans - the next due date is calculated automatically from the issue date and interval.
Maintain a worker list, or add workers on the fly when you issue PPE - the Workers tab shows every worker with their issued PPE and each item's current status.
The Summary tab totals items tracked, overdue and due-soon counts, workers with an overdue item, and a full items-by-type breakdown, alongside a full searchable item history.
Worker, PPE type, issue date, interval, optional condition notes and an optional "last inspected" date - one quick form, with every item landing in a searchable table with a delete action.
Copy a plain-text summary of totals and the items-by-type breakdown to the clipboard, or export a standalone HTML file to keep or share.
Light/dark theme remembers your choice, and two rotating sample PPE registers - each spanning several workers, PPE types and due-date spreads - let you explore the runway before logging your own.

Every PPE item plotted on a single shared time axis, positioned by how many days away its next due date is from today. Overdue items sit to the left of a fixed "now" line, due-soon and OK items sit to the right, and items due around the same time stack into extra rows instead of overlapping, so the overall picture is visible at a glance without scrolling a table.
A fixed set covering the common ones - hard hat, hi-vis vest/jacket, safety boots, gloves, eye protection, ear protection, safety harness, respiratory mask/RPE and fall arrest lanyard - plus a free-text "Other" option for anything that doesn't fit.
Each item has an issue date and a replacement/inspection interval in months that you set yourself, since different PPE has wildly different lifespans - the next due date is simply the issue date plus that interval, recomputed automatically.
An optional field for PPE that gets periodically re-inspected rather than simply replaced on a fixed cycle, such as a safety harness or fall arrest lanyard - it records when someone last checked the item over, separately from its replacement due date.
No. It is a record-keeping tool for tracking PPE issue and inspection/replacement dates - it does not verify PPE is actually fit for purpose, compliant with current regulations, or correctly fitted, and it is not a substitute for a proper PPE management/compliance programme or manufacturer guidance on replacement intervals.
Yes - PPE Issue & Inspection Tracker uses the same shared Metre2 account as Vector, Forma and every other Keystone app. Sign in once and it works everywhere.
