Your safety file, done.
Get on site sooner.
SafetyQuest turns your scope of work into a complete, site-specific OHS safety file — method statements, risk assessments, appointments, registers and plans — compiled into one print-ready PDF. Built for South African subcontractors around the OHS Act 85 of 1993 and the Construction Regulations 2014.
Free to sign up · Plans from R99/month · No long-term contract
Why SafetyQuest?
The safety file is the last thing between you and the site.
Rejected files delay handover, and every day off site costs you money. SafetyQuest turns a week of paperwork into a guided process built for South African construction subcontractors.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our safety file generator.
- Is the generated file fully compliant?
- SafetyQuest is an assistive document tool, not a compliance guarantee. Documents are built around the Occupational Health and Safety Act 85 of 1993 and the Construction Regulations 2014, but responsibility for compliance remains with you. Review and verify every document for your site before use, as set out in our Terms of Service and Disclaimer.
- Can I customise the documents?
- Yes. We provide the templates and generated drafts. You can edit the details, add your company logo, and adjust the content to fit your project.
- How long does it take to put a file together?
- Most users assemble a baseline safety file in under 15 minutes once they have their project details ready. The AI drafts the method statements and risk assessments while you carry on with setup.
