Dangerous work, under control.

Hot work, confined space, electrical isolation, working at height — every hazardous job runs on a permit with a real lifecycle: drafted, approved, signed, activated, closed. Enforced by the system, not by habit.

Work permits · HSE

The lifecycle is the safety system.

Every transition is validated server-side — a permit can't skip approval, can't be edited after closing, can't quietly expire unseen. The work order shows its permits in a safety banner, right where the wrench turns.

INTEGRITY

Closed means closed

A closed or cancelled permit is frozen forever — the signed PDF snapshot is filed automatically. Continuing the job means duplicating into a new permit, preserving the audit trail.

The paper copy knows its status

Every printed permit carries a QR code. Anyone at the job front scans it and sees the live permit — valid, expiring, or dead — instead of trusting a sheet that might be stale.

Questions about work permits

01Which permit types are covered?

Fourteen, including hot work, confined space, electrical isolation, work at height, excavation and lifting. Each type ships with default hazards, PPE, isolations, checklist, fire watch, gas test and rescue plan content that you then edit, and you can keep several named templates per type.

02Can one permit cover more than one machine?

Yes. A permit can be issued for a site, for one machine, for a work order, or for a group of machines. Welding ten excavators in one bay is one hot work permit covering ten machines, not ten permits, and the covered set is what every filter, report and rule reads.

03Can a closed permit be reopened?

No, and that is the point. Closed and cancelled are terminal: edits, signatures and uploads are all refused once a permit reaches them. Continued work duplicates the permit into a new one, which keeps the record of what was authorised on the day it was authorised.

04Is the permit printable and traceable?

Yes. Every permit produces a branded PDF with a QR code that opens a field-optimised page for that permit, and printing or downloading it is itself recorded on the permit's timeline alongside every approval, signature and status change.
