Questions and answers

Frequently asked questions

What does a contractor do before arriving and at the kiosk?

Before arriving, the contractor completes the site risk acknowledgment through the link in the invitation, and at the kiosk takes the induction unless they signed it in advance. The link opens the web app, where they confirm the site's risks and fill in the risks of their own work; you approve them, and the system saves the signed version. The risk acknowledgment is the only step they should do before arriving; they can take the induction in the web app or at the kiosk. The kiosk has a contractor with an expired induction take it again before letting them through.

What if a contractor fails the induction test?

The kiosk has them answer again until they get it right, or sends you a notification so you decide whether to let them through.

Do contractors sign the induction before they arrive or at the entrance?

Whichever suits them: they sign the induction in advance in the web app from the invitation, or at the kiosk at the entrance. The record is the same either way.

What if a contractor does not speak the local language?

The kiosk interface and the invitations come in 50+ languages. You provide the induction content in the languages you need.

What if a visitor arrives by car?

A pre‑registered visitor opens the barrier gate with the QR code from the invitation, valid only for the visit window. At the vehicle entrance, the visitor holds the QR code to the reader, the barrier gate opens and the host gets an SMS notification. We connect to your existing barrier gates.

What if we run several plants?

You set up the same check‑in flow at all your plants.
