Why HSEKit

Paper Permits Can't Compete

😩 The PTW Reality

  • Permits lost between office and site
  • Approvals take hours of walking
  • No enforcement of sequencing or pre-requisites
  • Forgotten gas tests, expired permits
  • No live view of what's open where
  • Audit trail reconstructed after the fact

✨ With HSEKit

  • Mobile-first permits, always at hand
  • Multi-stage approval with SLA tracking
  • Workflow engine enforces pre-requisites and expiry
  • Auto-reminders for re-test and re-validation
  • Live permit board by location, type, status
  • Immutable audit trail with signatures and timestamps
Customer Stories

Permit Leaders Love HSEKit

★★★★★
Permit cycle time dropped from 4 hours to 12 minutes. Workers used to wait, now they get approvals before they finish their pre-task briefing.
Greg P.Operations Manager, BuildCorp
★★★★★
The live permit board changed everything. We see hot work, confined space, and electrical permits in real time. The control room has full visibility.

Permit to Work FAQs

What is permit to work (PTW) software?
Permit to work software is a digital system that replaces paper-based permits for high-risk work (hot work, confined space, electrical, lifting, working at heights, excavation, etc.). It enforces a structured approval workflow, captures isolation points and gas test results, requires digital signatures, and creates an auditable record. HSEKit supports 9 permit types with multi-stage approval and live permit boards.
What permit types does HSEKit support?
HSEKit supports 9 permit types out of the box: Hot Work, Confined Space, Electrical (HV/LV), Lifting (Critical/Standard), Working at Heights, Excavation, Cold Work, Vehicle Entry, and Isolation. Each permit type has a tailored form, hazard identification, control checklist, and approval routing. Custom permit types can also be configured.
How does HSEKit enforce permit sequencing?
HSEKit uses a workflow engine that enforces: pre-requisite permits (e.g., isolation must be in place before hot work), approval gates (e.g., confined space requires entry supervisor + standby + rescue plan), and validity periods (auto-expiry, extension, and re-validation). This prevents unsafe work from starting.
Can workers close permits from a phone?
Yes. The full permit lifecycle is mobile-friendly: request, risk assessment, approval, issuance, gas test logging, and closure with sign-off. Workers, supervisors, and approvers can all act on the permit from any device, including offline on remote sites.
