When Safety Meets Speed

Let’s cut to the chase: Health and safety approvals shouldn’t be where productivity goes to die. Work Wallet keeps your teams safe. ApproveThis keeps your processes moving. Combined? They’re the bureaucratic kryptonite your compliance officers have been begging for.

Work Wallet’s asset inspections, risk assessments, and audit trails are mission-critical. But when every completed assessment gets stuck in email approval purgatory, you’re left choosing between safety protocols and project timelines. That’s where our Zapier integration comes in – automated approval workflows that treat "urgent" like an actual priority, not a email subject line.

How This Tag Team Works

Work Wallet’s Heavy Lifting

Work Wallet does the gritty work:

  • Documenting safety inspections
  • Tracking equipment audits
  • Logging risk assessments

ApproveThis’s Traffic Control

ApproveThis handles the decision-making logistics:

  • Auto-routing approvals based on risk levels
  • Chasing down MIA approvers
  • Creating audit-ready paper trails

Connect them via Zapier, and Work Wallet’s completed actions automatically kick off approval workflows. No CSV exports. No "Did you see my email?" Slack messages. Just actual progress.

Real-World Use Cases (No Fluff Edition)

1. Asset Inspections That Don’t Kill Momentum

The Problem: Your field team completes a forklift inspection in Work Wallet at 3PM Friday. The maintenance manager won’t review it until Tuesday morning. Production delay: 64 hours.

The Fix: Zapier triggers an ApproveThis workflow the second the inspection is logged. Approval thresholds auto-approve routine maintenance but escalate major issues directly to the safety director’s phone. The kicker? Approvers don’t need Work Wallet logins – just email access.

2. Audits That Actually Prevent Lawsuits

The Problem: Completed safety audits get buried in spreadsheets. By the time someone reviews the failed fire extinguisher check, you’ve already had the OSHA visit.

The Fix: Every Work Wallet audit completion becomes an ApproveThis task with deadlines. Conditional routing sends compliance failures legal’s way and minor issues to department heads. All decisions timestamped for liability purposes.

3. Risk Assessments That Mitigate Actual Risk

The Problem: Your team logs a high-risk chemical handling assessment. It gets reviewed in alphabetical order by a committee that meets bi-weekly.

The Fix: Assessments over a certain risk threshold immediately notify the operations director via SMS. Lower-risk items get batched for weekly review. Vacation delegation ensures the chain of command never breaks.

Why This Isn’t Just Another Integration

Most app integrations just move data. This one prevents costly mistakes:

For Safety Teams:

Auto-escalate severe issues without relying on junior staff to "urgently" flag them. Calculated fields in ApproveThis can prioritize assessments based on Work Wallet’s risk scores.

For Legal/Compliance:

Every approval decision is timestamped with the exact Work Wallet data snapshot that was reviewed. No more "But the system showed different numbers when I approved it" excuses.

For Operations:

Real-time dashboards show which safety approvals are bottlenecking projects. Slap a deadline on a request, and watch approvers magically find time.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind

  1. Zapier Account: Free tier works
  2. Connect Work Wallet: Use their API key (they have decent docs)
  3. Connect ApproveThis: 2-minute setup
  4. Pick Your Trigger: Asset inspection? Audit? Risk assessment?
  5. Map Data Fields: Pull Work Wallet’s risk scores into ApproveThis’ conditional logic
  6. Test: Approve a fake request from your phone while walking to lunch

Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-approve routine issues. Escalate only what matters.

The Nerd Stuff You Actually Care About

Approval Groups > Committees: Require consensus from all safety leads or sequential approvals from junior → senior staff. Your call.

Email Approvals: External contractors can approve requests without getting added to Work Wallet. They click "Approve" in the email, it’s logged, everyone moves on.

Thresholds That Work: Auto-approve maintenance under $500. Auto-escalate anything with "chemical leak" in the description.

Bottom Line

Work Wallet keeps your people safe. ApproveThis keeps your processes from being stupid. Together, they make compliance something you achieve incidentally while hitting project deadlines.

FAQs From People Who Hate Sales Pitches

Q: What if approvers don’t use Work Wallet?
A: They don’t need to. Approvals happen via email or ApproveThis’ dashboard.

Q: Can we customize escalation rules?
A: Yes. If someone ignores a request for 24 hours, it automatically moves up the chain.

Q: How’s this different from Work Wallet’s built-in approvals?
A: Work Wallet tells you something needs approval. ApproveThis actually gets it done across teams, tools, and pay grades.
