Use case

New staff member starts Monday. Is their compliance record ready?

Add them to the system and assign their groups. By end of day: safeguarding policy acknowledged, fire safety risk assessment signed, site induction completed, staff credentials tracked with expiry dates. Nothing chased manually.

Right now, onboarding compliance is a manual process that relies on someone remembering.

A new person joins. Someone prints the induction checklist. Someone else emails the safeguarding policy. HR adds a row to the staff compliance spreadsheet. A manager schedules a fire safety walkthrough then gets pulled into something else and forgets.

Three weeks later, you're not sure if the policy was actually read or just filed. The background check was started but nobody followed up on the certificate. The induction checklist is in a drawer somewhere.

When an inspector asks whether your new staff are compliant, you have to hope the answer is yes, because the process depends on people remembering, and people get busy.

See it in action

With modules connected, the workflow looks like this.

Day one

Add them to the system. Assign their groups. The right documents go to them automatically.

You add the new starter, assign their role and groups, and create their personnel record. From that point, the policies and risk assessments distributed to those groups are theirs to acknowledge. The site induction form lands in their queue. Their certification details are recorded with expiry dates set. No one has to remember to send anything.

Policies distributed by group, not by hand.
Assign groups and the right documents reach the right people. No manual distribution, no email chains.
Staff certification tracking from day one.
Record certificate details, set expiry dates, and get reminded before anything lapses.
Role-based compliance, not one-size-fits-all.
Different roles belong to different groups. A care worker gets different policies than a receptionist.

Acknowledgement without chasing

They read it. They sign it. You see it without asking.

The new starter receives their documents and forms directly. They acknowledge policies, complete induction checklists, and sign risk assessments on their own device, at their own pace. Each action is timestamped and linked to their record. You can see exactly what's been done and what's still outstanding on their profile, without asking.

Complete record from day one

When the inspector asks, the answer is yes.

By the end of their first week, every new starter has a complete compliance record. Every policy read, every form signed, every certificate tracked. If something is outstanding, it shows on the dashboard and reminders go out automatically. When an inspector asks whether your staff are compliant, you open the system and show them.
