How Do I Manage Site Access and Visitor Logs for a Building Under Construction?
To manage site access and visitor logs for a building under construction, register every visitor and worker entering the site with time, purpose and host, confirm safety requirements at check-in and keep a daily list of who is on site.
In Jestor, visitor logs are linked to each site, and check-in forms work on a phone or tablet at the gate.
Why does site access need control?
Construction sites receive workers, subcontractors, suppliers, inspectors and clients every day. Paper logs at the gate are incomplete.
In an emergency, nobody knows exactly who is on site. Unauthorized visitors create safety and theft risks.
Disputes about who was on site at a given time are hard to resolve.
What problems does access control solve?
- Unknown number of people on site
- Visitors entering without safety equipment
- Incomplete paper logs
- No record for investigations
- Unauthorized access
