19 June 2025

Looking to streamline your permit processes and reduce on-site risks? Discover how Work Wallet’s digital Permit to Work system helps you manage work authorisations efficiently, keeping teams safe and sites compliant.
Keeping People Safe Starts with Clear Permits
When it comes to high-risk work, safety starts long before anyone steps on site. Whether it's hot work, working at height, or confined space entry, having a transparent and auditable process for issuing permits is essential. However, paper-based systems can be slow, complex to track, and prone to human error.
That's where Work Wallet's Permit to Work System comes in.
Built for busy teams in high-risk environments, our digital solution ensures that every permit is issued correctly, reviewed, and authorised before work begins, all from the palm of your hand.
Digitise Your Permit Process for Greater Control
Say goodbye to delays and lost paperwork. With Work Wallet, you can create and manage permits directly from your desktop or mobile device.
It's fast, flexible, and always available, even on the move.
✅ Easily create and assign permits to jobs or projects
✅ Add attachments, risk assessments, and method statements
✅ Enable automatic notifications to ensure sign-offs don't get missed
✅ Review and approve permits in real-time, wherever you are
From approval requests, every step is logged and auditable, giving you complete visibility and traceability across all your work permits.
One System, One Source of Truth
Work Wallet brings everything together in one secure platform. That means no more digging through folders or chasing signatures; all your permit data is centralised, searchable, and securely stored.
