A new digital workplace onboarding platform created by health and safety software innovators Work Wallet is helping businesses increase site safety awareness and productivity. 

 

Site Gateway is a digital self-service tool that enables businesses to provide safe and easy site access by onboarding visitors and contractors before they arrive –shifting face-to-face compliance processes online, and freeing up valuable time for other site management essentials. 

 

Jonny Gray, CEO of Work Wallet, commented: 

 

“The success of our new Site Gateway feature is that it’s simple to use and manage, streamlining site safety before anyone actually steps on site.  

 

“It creates a connected safety culture, improving and monitoring visitors’ site-specific safety understanding and assuring businesses of compliance – while site managers feel they can focus on other essential areas, increasing productivity.” 

 

Mark Blundy, Director of Health & Safety for Bowmer & Kirkland, said: 

 

“Work Wallet is integral to our journey to paperless health and safety reporting, recording, inspection, and management. 

 

“The new Site Gateway feature helps us manage our permit to work and authority to proceed processes for controlling high-risk activities on our construction sites. 

 

“We can already see the potential to develop and apply this feature to digitalise more of our processes and procedures in future, to reduce administration and free up our managers’ time.” 

 

Additionally, research by Work Wallet shows that 83 percent of staff whose employer uses Site Gateway feel more positive about returning to their physical workplace post-pandemic, because of better communication about COVID and the minimisation of physical contact using an online portal allows. 

 

Site Gateway complements Work Wallet’s award-winning modular software by sending a pre-arrival weblink to contractors and visitors, containing essential information for them to read and complete before they step on site – including inductions, site-specific rules, and submitting and validating permits to work. 

 

Site managers keep control of the whole process from their own digital device, and benefit from sophisticated monitoring and reporting functionality, enabling focused, real-time, data-driven decision making. Managers of multiple sites can easily segment and compare data on a site-by-site basis. 

 

Uniquely for health and safety software, Site Gateway is charged by the site, not the number of users, meaning costs do not fluctuate and fixed site budgets can be more easily managed. 

The all-in-one Work Wallet health and safety app was originally developed for the  construction, rail and manufacturing industries help keeping their sites, staff and contractors safe, but is equally usable by any business with physical premises or operating in high-risk environments.
