Platform Features
Platform features built for construction teams
SiteSafe HammerTime brings site compliance, arrival forms, subcontractor compliance, SSSP safety plans, health and safety reporting, and payroll-ready timekeeping into one platform for NZ construction. These are the features crews and managers use every day on active sites.
Why teams choose HammerTime
Unlimited users for site safety. Everyone can check in, complete arrival forms, report hazards, and join roll call — you only pay per worker if you also want GPS timekeeping.
Up to 20 active sites every month. No per-project fees. Run compliance across your portfolio without stacking site-by-site charges.
Contractor prequalification built in. Subcontractor compliance, insurance, SiteWise, and SSSP tracking are included — not a premium add-on.
One app on site
Workers scan a QR code or follow a deep link and land straight in the right workflow — no menu diving on a busy site.
Offline-first
Clock, journal, and uploads queue when signal drops and sync automatically on reconnect — no lost records in dead zones.
SiteSafe mobile app
Mobile-first worker experience on the SiteSafe app — iOS-first with full Android support for mixed crews.
Site compliance and arrival forms
A compliance state engine decides what blocks site entry, so supervisors spend less time chasing paperwork at the gate.
Check-in and compliance engine
- Digital site check-in and check-out for workers and visitors
- Compliance state engine decides what blocks entry via nextAction and pending forms
- Arrival forms — compliance forms required on arrival, completed after check-in
- Toolbox talks can gate check-in until signed
Flexible site rules
- Paper fallback: photo upload plus manual approval where configured
- Permit-to-work allowlist and site credential requirements
- Helps you demonstrate compliance with a defensible audit trail
Know who’s on site
See who is on site now — workers, visitors, and contractors — with arrival-form status visible at a glance.
Live visibility
- Live on-site roster with arrival-form status for every person
- Check-in history by day — who arrived, when, and how they left
- Emergency roll call: frozen roster snapshot at roll-call start, mark safe, notify unconfirmed by push and SMS
- Visitor kiosk and guest mobile access — no account needed
Guest check-in
Visitors and delivery drivers check in from a kiosk or their phone without downloading an app or creating an account.
Safety plans (SSSP)
Create a site-specific safety plan in minutes, then reuse it as a company template across your portfolio.
SSSP wizard
Build a site-specific safety plan step by step — or upload an existing PDF if you already have one signed off.
Company templates
Publish a safety plan once as a reusable company template and deploy it across new sites in minutes.
Version history
Draft to publish with full version history and worker or manager acknowledgements on each published version.
NZ and AU compliance packs
- NZ SiteSafe-style safety plan structure built into the wizard
- AU WHS and SWMS compliance packs for cross-border projects
- PDF upload path as an alternative to the wizard when you already have a signed plan
- Acknowledgement records help demonstrate compliance during audits
Hazards and incidents
Capture hazards and incidents from the field with photos, severity, and a clear path to resolution for managers.
Hazard reporting
- Hazard reporting with photo evidence and severity rating
- Site hazard register and hazardous substance register
- Manager resolve and comment workflow with full history
Incident reporting
- Structured incident wizard for consistent records
- Prefill from worker-submitted reports to save re-entry
- Open incidents surface on the H&S dashboard for follow-up
Subcontractor compliance
Track every subcontractor’s link status, insurance, SiteWise certification, and SSSP from one company-wide dashboard — with automated chase reminders so nothing slips through.
Compliance dashboard
Company-wide view of link status, profile completeness, and a requires-attention filter for subcontractors that need action.
Status badges
Not linked, Link pending, Profile incomplete, Ready, Review required, Expiring soon, and Expired — visible at a glance.
Invite and chase
Invite a subcontractor’s own HammerTime company to link, send bulk link invites, and auto-chase on days 3, 7, and 13.
Insurance, SiteWise, and SSSP
- Insurance, SiteWise certification, and SSSP tracked per subcontractor
- When linked, credentials resolve from the subcontractor’s own HammerTime company
- Token-based portal for subcontractors without HammerTime to upload insurance, SiteWise, and SSSP
- Accept or decline link requests with full audit history
Time and attendance
GPS-confirmed time records with geofence enforcement — location captured at clock and compliance moments, not continuous surveillance.
Clock in and out
- Fast clock in and out with GPS at punch when policy requires
- Geofence enforcement and optional auto clock-out on leaving site
- Payroll vs task-work split — two independent session types on the same day
- Breaks, manual entries, and offline queue with sync on reconnect
- Required-document gate blocks clocking until mandatory forms are signed
- Human reference codes (P… projects, T… tasks, E… entries) for speakable audit
Check-in verification
Biometric verification is available for site check-ins where configured. Auto check-in always requires worker confirmation every time — it does not use biometric auto-approval.
Records time and feeds your payroll — HammerTime is not a payroll engine. Export payroll-ready time records when you need them.
Field work and tasks
Give crews rich task instructions in the field and give managers one inbox for every open task across all sites.
Rich task instructions
Text and images available offline so crews know exactly what to do on site.

Company tasks inbox
Every open and completed task across all sites and projects, with overdue highlighting.
Scheduling and assignment
