Some organisations let their contractors add their own subcontractors (labour hire, specialist trades). The Your subcontractors tab appears when one you work with has this on.
How to add a subcontractor
- Step 1: Open Your subcontractors and find the organisation.
- Step 2: Under Add a subcontractor for (the organisation), enter the Business name and Email, and optionally a contact name and trade.
- Step 3: If asked, choose What they do for the organisation: their requirements follow this, and the organisation can change it.
- Step 4: Select Invite them.
What happens next
- They get an invitation to their own free iComply account and upload their documents there.
- The organisation checks and approves them. You see Hasn't accepted yet, Declined, Cleared or Not cleared, and Waiting for the organisation's approval or Approved by it.
- Their documents stay theirs. If they choose to share them with you, open Their documents to see each one and its decision.
- Select Take off to remove one from your list for that organisation.
When you're someone's subcontractor
Under Where you're someone's subcontractor you see who added you, for which organisation. Select Share my documents with them to let them see your documents, or Stop sharing my documents.
Common questions
- The organisation doesn't let subcontractors add their own. Ask it to invite the business directly.
Opening a tier 2's document is recorded. You see it only while they share their documents with you.
