This is where all three pillars converge. When a worker submits a permit, VETTED checks: Is the contractor qualified? Is the worker's training current? Is the JSA completed? If any answer is no, the permit is blocked. Not flagged for review. Not noted in a report. Blocked. This is the crown jewel of the VETTED enforcement engine.
A paper permit proves someone filled out a form. It doesn't prove the worker is trained. It doesn't verify the contractor is qualified. It doesn't check if the JSA was completed. And when someone gets hurt, the first question is always: "Was there a valid permit?" With paper, you're never sure. With VETTED, the permit couldn't have existed unless every requirement was met. That's the difference between documentation and enforcement.
Real-time verification, multi-level approvals, and full audit trails—in the office or the field.
Workers can't submit permits if required training is expired. The system checks in real-time against the training database. No exceptions, no workarounds.
Configure approval chains by permit type. Simple permits need one signature. Hot work might need supervisor, area authority, and fire safety. You define the rules.
Energy isolation built in. Define isolation points, track lock assignments, verify all points confirmed before work begins. No separate LOTO system needed.
See all active permits in an area. When simultaneous operations create additional hazards, the system alerts approvers and requires coordination sign-off.
Create and submit permits from the Safety Sidekick app even without connectivity. Data syncs automatically when connection returns.
Permits expire when they should. Shift-based permits close at shift end. Workers get alerts before expiration and can request extensions through the proper workflow.
When a worker creates a permit, VETTED automatically checks everything in the background:
All checks happen automatically. Workers see what's blocking them. Compliance is enforced, not hoped for.
A permit is the moment of truth. It's where contractor qualification (Pillar 1), worker training (Pillar 2), and safety operations (Pillar 3) all come together. VETTED enforces every connection automatically.
Permit requirements pull from the training matrix. If hot work training is required for hot work permits, the system knows. No manual configuration per permit.
Permits automatically pull the relevant job safety analysis. Workers review hazards and controls before starting work. JSA acknowledgment becomes part of the permit record.
Contractor qualification status checked in real-time. If insurance expires or EMR spikes, their workers can't get permits until the issue is resolved.
If an incident occurs, investigators see the active permit, who approved it, what training was verified, and which JSA was in place. Complete context, no hunting.
VETTED includes templates for common permit types, all fully configurable to match your requirements:
