Questions And Answers

The Safe Ag Systems App works offline so that all your important safety information can be accessed at any time.

Any information that you save in the App while working offline will be synced to the cloud when you next operate the App when reconnected.

It’s flexible – we have tailored our packages to reflect the complexities of your business whilst retaining the system as a cost effective tool to help manage your health and safety. For businesses with more than 15 employees we can offer a bespoke package based upon your needs. Call us to find out more about our fully tailored service.

We will tailor the system to provide all the necessary documents and policies that you need to demonstrate that you are taking the necessary steps to become compliant. However we cannot run the system for you on a day to day basis and so some responsibility still lies with you or your appointed competent person to ensure that the policies and procedures that we have put in place are followed as far as reasonably practicable. We are here to support and advise you all the way on you Health and Safety journey with us!

The initial setup will take 1 to 2 weeks depending on the number of employees you have. 

The set up fee is designed to ensure that we capture all the relevant safety data from your farm accurately. It is important that the necessary documents are specific to your farm and are not simply generic. Ultimately health and safety is more that just downloading documents from the internet or purchasing as a general package. 

When you enter or upload your data into your Sage Ag Systems subscription, you still have complete ownership of your own data. Safe Ag Systems just uses your data to provide its services to you.
