Worker passes
A contractor's workers carry their own pass on their phone: their sites, bookings, things to sign and a gate QR code. Here's what your organisation gets and how to switch it on.

A worker pass is a personal link a contractor emails to each of its workers. It needs no password and no app. The worker sees only their own things, and shows a gate QR code when they arrive.
What your organisation gets
- Each worker signs in at the gate as themselves, checked against their own tickets and inductions on that site.
- Workers see whether they're cleared for each of your sites, and why not, before they arrive.
- Workers do your inductions, read and sign SWMS, toolbox talks and safety plans, and see their bookings on their phone.
- A gate QR code that changes every few seconds and works once, so a screenshot can't get anyone in.
How to switch it on
- Step 1: An administrator opens Settings → Your packs and makes sure Gate & Access includes Worker pass. Builders and businesses already have it.
- Step 2: Put the contractor on your site's list. See Sites.
- Step 3: The contractor sends each worker their pass from their Workers page (Send their pass). Your organisation doesn't send passes.
Common questions
- Can we see a worker's pass? No. You see what the contractor shares with your organisation: its workers' tickets and your own decisions, completions and sign-ins. Nothing crosses between organisations.
- A worker lost their phone. Their business switches the pass off or sends a new one; the old link stops at once.
- The QR code won't scan. Search their name at the gate instead. See Scanning a pass.
