Designed for daily field use, Tradymate is fast, practical, and easy to use whether you’re working solo or with a small team. Everything is stored centrally so information is easy to find, follow-ups are straightforward, and nothing slips through the cracks. Tradymate works on a flexible subscription model, allowing you to use the app only when you need it.

About

SafetyPermit

Features
Read full description

SafetyPermit is a digital permit-to-work system for high-risk work sites. It replaces paper permits with a fast, auditable mobile workflow that keeps workers, issuers, and site teams on the same page. THREE WAYS TO WORK β€’ Kiosk β€” display a site QR code on an iPad at the gate. Workers scan to begin check-in. β€’ Issuer β€” review, approve, extend, revoke, and close permits from your iPhone. β€’ Worker β€” scan the QR, confirm your identity with a one-time code, and complete your permit and prework checks in minutes. No account needed. BUILT FOR REAL SITES β€’ QR-based check-in with returning-worker recognition for fast repeat visits. β€’ Prework safety checks and terms acceptance captured at check-in. β€’ International phone support and identity verification by email or SMS. β€’ Permit lifecycle you can trust: issue, expire, extend, revoke, and close β€” every action attributed to a person. STAY NOTIFIED β€’ Push notifications for the permit events that matter to you, routed by your site and area assignments. β€’ Per-category notification controls so you only get what's relevant. SafetyPermit is a multi-tenant platform β€” your organisation's data stays isolated and secure.
