SiteKey links your site induction training to your site access gate. Anyone who hasn't completed their induction cannot check in, and site managers no longer chase inductions or check a clipboard.
Most NZ worksites have an induction process on paper. Without an automated gate, people can get onto your site before completing their induction, and you may not find out until something goes wrong.
Site managers spend time chasing contractors to complete inductions before they arrive, or find the gap when the contractor is already at the gate with a job to do.
When induction completion is recorded on paper or in a spreadsheet, nobody can check it automatically at site entry. Someone has to look up each person's record by hand, and that step often gets skipped.
An induction done once is often never revisited, even after site conditions, equipment or procedures change. Without an expiry date on each induction, you cannot tell which ones are still current.
An induction system on its own does not stop a person without an induction from entering the site. That depends on someone checking by hand at the gate.
Under the HSWA 2015, PCBUs have a duty to provide the information, training, instruction, and supervision necessary to protect workers from risks to their health and safety. On a worksite that duty covers site-specific inductions for all workers, including contractors, sub-contractors and labour hire workers, before they access the site. Construction PCBUs have additional specific obligations under the Health and Safety at Work (General Risk and Workplace Management) Regulations 2016. SiteKey's compliance gate checks for a completed induction at each check-in. WorkSafe New Zealand publishes guidance on induction requirements for PCBUs.
SiteKey links your induction records to your site gate and enforces the requirement automatically at check-in.
SiteKey checks induction status at check-in, so nobody has to look it up in a spreadsheet or ask at the gate.
Set which induction your site requires, the training it involves, any expiry periods, and whether different contractor categories have different requirements.
Contractors complete their induction online or at a pre-arranged session. Completion is recorded in SiteKey during pre-registration, before they arrive on site for the first time.
Each time a contractor scans their QR pass, SiteKey checks their induction status. If they are compliant they are checked in. If not, they are flagged and blocked until the requirement is met.

Site induction management software tracks whether workers and contractors have completed a site-specific safety induction before accessing a worksite. It takes the place of paper induction records and manual checks. It is often connected to a check-in system, and induction status is then checked at the gate before anyone comes on site. SiteKey combines site access management and induction compliance in a single system.
Yes. Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA), PCBUs must provide workers with the information, training, instruction and supervision needed to protect them from risks to their health and safety. On a worksite that duty covers a site-specific induction on site hazards, emergency procedures and site rules before a worker accesses the site. The duty applies to employees, contractors, sub-contractors and labour hire workers. Letting people on site without a completed induction breaches the primary duty of care under the Act.
When a contractor or worker checks in to your site with their SiteKey QR pass, SiteKey checks their induction status against your configured requirements. If they have not completed the required induction, SiteKey flags them as non-compliant, blocks the check-in and shows a message explaining what is missing. They cannot proceed until the induction requirement is met.
SiteKey is a site access and compliance gate system. It checks that induction training has been completed and does not deliver the training itself. For online induction training, SiteKey can be integrated with a learning management system. Capability Solutions, the company behind SiteKey, also runs a training platform at capabilitysolutions.co.nz that can host online site induction courses. Get in touch to talk about using the two together on your site.
The HSWA 2015 sets no fixed renewal frequency for inductions. Many sites require renewal when site conditions change significantly, when a worker returns after an extended absence, or on a set period such as once a year. In SiteKey you can set an expiry period for inductions. SiteKey marks a contractor as non-compliant once their induction is past that period, and they have to renew it before they can access the site.
SiteKey charges a flat monthly fee with no per-user charges and no per-scan costs. Pricing is $30 a month for an office, $50 a month for a worksite, and $10 a month for each additional site. The fee covers site access management and induction compliance gating for the whole site. See full pricing on the SiteKey homepage.
