Fire drills are essential for workplace safety, but managing roll call sheets with pen and paper can be time-consuming, error-prone, and hard to track. Today’s workplaces demand smarter solutions, and mobile-optimized Power Apps fire drill roll call sheets — like the one shown below — deliver exactly that.
A fire drill roll call sheet is a tool used to record attendance and verify the safety of all staff members during an evacuation. Traditional paper sheets are cumbersome, but digital solutions streamline the process significantly. The example above illustrates a modern, mobile-friendly Power Apps solution, designed for fast, accurate roll calls.
Staff can access the fire drill sheet from any smartphone or tablet, whether they’re inside the building or outside at the assembly point.
Attendance and notes are logged instantly, making it easy for safety officers to monitor and record participation.
Eliminate manual errors and lost paperwork — all records are saved securely in the cloud.
Clearly track event type, date and time started/completed for audit and compliance purposes.
Name and role are listed with simple checkboxes for presence. Notes can be added per person on the fly.
Submitting data is as easy as tapping “Submit,” ensuring seamless transfer of records.
After the drill, the app can generate a detailed attendance report as a PDF and automatically send it to designated email addresses. This ensures that documented evidence of compliance is readily available and easily shared with stakeholders or auditors—without any manual steps.
