Contractor sign-in that puts safety first

Contractors check in at the kiosk, watch the safety induction, sign your site rules and get a photo badge — before they touch a tool. Their host is alerted, and every visit is on record.

Visitor type configurations in the dashboard
Safety induction video on the kiosk

Set a contractor visitor type in the dashboard; inductions play on the kiosk before entry.

✓A contractor visitor type — its own questions (company, trade, job reference) separate from guests and deliveries.
✓Safety induction videos — watched at the kiosk and acknowledged before check-in continues.
✓Site rules and agreements — reviewed and finger-signed on screen; a copy lands in the contractor's inbox.
✓Photo badges — name, photo, company and host printed automatically so staff know who belongs where.
✓Returning contractors — quick sign-in by email or phone pulls up the last visit for regular trades.
✓On the evacuation roster — every contractor on site appears in the live roster when an alert goes out.
SAFETYInducted before the gateInductions and site rules are enforced per visitor type — nobody skips them on a busy morning.
HOSTSThe right person knowsThe site manager or host gets an email, SMS or Slack alert the moment a contractor arrives.
RECORDSProof for every visitWho came, for whom, what they signed and when they left — exportable for audits and incident reviews.
Why it matters

Why a contractor sign-in system beats a clipboard

A clipboard can't prove a contractor watched the induction, can't tell the site manager they've arrived, and can't tell you who is still on site when the alarm sounds. A contractor sign-in system enforces each step and keeps the evidence.

It runs on the same check-in kiosk as your guests and deliveries — each visitor type simply follows its own route.

Frequently asked questions

What is a contractor sign-in system?

Software that checks contractors in and out of a site, makes sure they complete inductions and sign site rules before starting work, alerts their host and keeps a record of every visit.

Can contractors watch a safety induction at check-in?

Yes. Add an induction video to the contractor visitor type. It must be watched and acknowledged before check-in continues.

Can we require site rules or an NDA to be signed?

Yes. Add the document as an agreement on the contractor visitor type. Contractors review and sign it on the kiosk, and the signed copy is attached to the visit record.

How do regular contractors sign in faster?

Returning-visitor sign-in finds their previous visit by email or phone number, so they confirm their details instead of retyping them.

Do contractors appear on the evacuation roster?

Yes. Everyone checked in — employees' guests, contractors and deliveries — appears on the live roster when you start an evacuation.
