Contractor compliance

Effective contractor compliance is crucial for meeting regulatory demands and workplace safety requirements across the logistics industry.

A contractor management system helps you to streamline document management, automate workflows, reduce legal risks, meet compliance standards, create audit pathways and maintain workplace safety.


Compliance management

Understanding compliance requirements

Understanding which contractor compliance requirements are relevant to your company and industry standards is vital for smooth operational efficiency.


Regulatory compliance

Regulatory obligations can differ depending on state, country, industry and role so it’s important to ensure you have a grasp of what these different requirements might be - especially if managing contractors across multiple locations. Factor in health and safety, labour laws, risk management and environmental requirements to ensure you’re meeting and maintaining compliance standards.


Best practices

Comprehensive inductions and training

Following a consistent induction structure provides you with peace of mind that all of your contractors have been provided with all safety, training and regulations that are required for them to perform their role adequately and safely. Facilitate and store compliance records all on one centralised system and receive automated alerts for missing or incomplete items.

Compliance tracking

Induction software allows you to set up workflows and compliance tracking to ensure that nothing slips through the cracks. Insightful reports allow you to analyse compliance metrics and pull up contractor compliance documents and data with ease.

Regular audits and reviews

Conducting regular audits and reviews mean that you can mitigate compliance risks, identify gaps and evolve your contractor management program as you scale and as industry standards and regulations change.

Streamlined software

Contractor compliance management software helps you streamline safety procedures, inductions and contractor management on a centralised dashboard - providing you with efficiency, enhanced processes and the ability to scale your workforce with ease.


Compliance audits

Regular compliance audits and ongoing monitoring are vital for ensuring your induction workflows and contractor management processes are up to date, meeting regulations, staying on top of risk management and legal compliance, and ultimately keeping your workforce as safe as possible.

An intuitive onboarding software is a fantastic tool to maintain compliance and prepare for audits. Capture and store compliance documentation such as insurance certificates, safety records, contractor compliance and induction records.

Reduce manual effort, enhance efficiency, reduce costs and ensure you’re always audit ready with a streamlined system.


Contractor management

Contractor Management Software allows you to ensure your partnered contractors are vetted, trained and monitored.

Manage thousands of contractors across multiple locations and sites with ease. Ensure regulatory requirements and internal processes and policies have been met.


Data protection

It is vital that you comply with data protection laws and requirements to meet compliance regulations.

Use a system that allows you to collect and store compliance data safely to protect contractor privacy and avoid data breaches. Ensuring that you’re operating safely and securely allows you to build credibility and enhances your company’s reputation.
