Site induction questions

FAQ

Workers

Is it really free for workers?

Yes. 100% free. No subscription, no fees. Workers keep every penny they earn.

What do I need to register?

Name, phone, email, postcode, pick your trades and tickets, select your availability, self declare your Right to Work, accept terms and conditions.

Do I need a CV or photo?

For your privacy, it's better to share your full name, address, experience and other details and legal requirements with your employer, not with a jobs platform. Employers might ask you for a CV and it's better to have one ready, and will definitely take photos of you on site.

Why only a postcode, not a full address?

Privacy and safety. Employers see your postcode area (e.g. HA8), not your front door. Your surname stays hidden until you choose to share it on the call.

How do employers contact me?

They call you directly. Phone number is all they need. No messaging platform, no waiting around.

How do employers find me?

Employers search by trade, location, and availability. Your profile shows up when they need someone like you. They call you directly.

How SiteJobs Works for Employers: The Full Guide →

Everything below in one guided walkthrough, from "what is this" to "how do I start": sitejobs.co.uk/how-it-works-employers

What Is This?

A directory of construction workers across the UK. Real people, real tickets, available now. You look them up, you ring them. That's the whole thing.

What Does It Cost?

Nothing for 30 days. No card. After that, from £199 a month, flat. Call as many workers as you want. We never take a cut of wages, and there's no placement fee. Ever.

Who Are The Workers?

People who registered themselves, picked their trades and declared their tickets. CPCS, NPORS, CSCS, IPAF, RTITB, IRATA, the lot. They say when they're available, and you see their first name, postcode area, trades, tickets and distance from your site. You verify tickets at induction, exactly as the law already requires you to. Nobody stands between you and the worker, so you ask exactly what you want to ask.

How Do I Find Them?

Search trade, postcode and radius. Want a groundworker who's also a dumper ticket? Search both, see who matches, who's closest, who's free this week. The phone number is on the profile. Call, agree a rate, done. Five minutes, not five days of chasing callbacks.

What If I Need Lots Of People?

Post your job. Every registered worker sees it for free, searchable by trade and location. Urgent role? We pin it to the top for 48 hours.

Anything Else?

GPS clock-in on site. Hours, breaks, late alerts, weekly timesheets, PDF export for payroll. Stops the "I was there at 7" arguments before they start. Free with your subscription.

Fine. How Do I Start?

Register, give us your Companies House number so workers know you're a real company too, and you're in. 30 days free. Walk away any time, nothing to cancel, no card on file.

Can I register as a sole trader?

No. Employers must be registered limited companies with a valid Companies House number. No sole traders.

How do you verify employers?

Companies House number is required on registration. We verify it instantly against the official register. Active company = approved. Dissolved or not found = rejected.

What about ticket verification?

Workers self-declare their tickets and certifications. Employers' legal requirement is to verify workers' tickets and certificates before site induction.

Are there per-placement fees?

No. Flat monthly subscription. Browse all you want, call as many workers as you need. No hidden costs.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Employers can try SiteJobs free for 30 days. No card required. Post 1 job per day and see how the platform works. Upgrade to a paid plan anytime to unlock phone numbers and unlimited job posts.

What happens after the trial ends?

Job posting and worker search are locked. You can still log in and manage your account. Choose a paid plan to continue using SiteJobs.

What is GPS Site Attendance?

A clock in/out tracker built into SiteJobs. Workers check in on site with their phone, GPS verifies their location, and hours are tracked automatically. Employers see live attendance, set break deductions, generate PDF timesheets for payroll, and export weekly CSV reports. Free with any employer subscription.

Do workers need a separate app for GPS Site Attendance?

No. It works in the phone browser at sitejobs.co.uk/checkin. No app to download. GPS location is captured automatically when the worker taps Check In.

General

Who built SiteJobs?
