Every worker’s white card on file, before they step on site.
Each subcontractor and worker uploads their white card through their own link, on their phone. The card is kept on their record, you approve it, and the compliance report shows who on each job holds one and who does not.
30-day free trial. No credit card.
Sound familiar?
The white card is a photo in a text message
It is on the supervisor’s phone, not on file, and the supervisor is on leave the day someone asks to see it.
A new labourer turns up on Monday
Nobody asked for the card before the start, so the choice is to send them home or let them on unchecked.
"Show me the cards for everyone on this job"
A principal contractor or an inspector asks, and the answer is a search through phones, inboxes and a folder of scans.
How the white card register works
- Step 1
Ask for the card once
The Australian contractor pack already includes a white card upload. Mark it required on the jobs where everyone must hold one.
- Step 2
Send each worker their link
Add workers, import them from a spreadsheet, or share a self-registration link. They upload a photo of the card from their phone, with no account and no password.
- Step 3
Approve it, and it stays on file
Check the name on the card and approve it. The card saves to the worker’s record, so it is already there for the next job.
What you can keep for each worker
- White card (general construction induction card)
- The issuing state and card number, as fields you add
- When they last did construction work, as a question you add
- High risk work licences, with their expiry dates
- Trade licences, with their expiry dates
- Your site induction, step by step
Kept on the worker, not the job
A worker on three of your sites uploads their white card once. Every site that asks for it sees the same approved copy.
Who holds one, at a glance
The document compliance report lists every worker against every document you ask for, white card included, and says who is compliant. Export it to CSV.
Chased until it arrives
Workers who have not uploaded their card get reminded automatically, with their own link. You hear about invites nobody opened.
Only asked of the people who need it
Gate the white card on an answer like "Will you be working on a construction site?", so office staff and delivery drivers never see it.
Licences tracked by expiry date
High risk work licences and trade licences do expire. Ask for them alongside the white card and WorkZerk reminds the worker before each one lapses.
Approved by a person
Every card is looked at and approved by someone on your side, with a record of who approved it and when.
A$49 a month plus GST, every feature included.
100 people can be active at once, with no limit on how many you put through in a year. Colleagues who work in the account with you are A$6 a month each.
See pricingQuestions
Does a white card expire?
The card itself usually does not, but under the model WHS laws a worker who has not done construction work for two years must do the training again. Our guide to white cards covers the rules by state. Add a question asking when the worker last did construction work if that matters on your sites.
Does WorkZerk check a white card with the regulator?
No. WorkZerk keeps the copy the worker uploaded and the record of who approved it and when. Some states, such as NSW and WA, have their own online lookup for checking a card.
Is a white card the same as a site induction?
No. The white card is general construction training. You still need to induct people to your own site. WorkZerk can run your site induction as a checklist in the same link.
Do workers pay anything, or need an account?
No to both. Each worker opens a private link in the browser on their phone. Only you pay for WorkZerk.
How much does it cost?
One plan at A$49 a month plus GST, with every feature. 100 people can be active at once. Try it free for 30 days, no credit card.
Why does WorkZerk cost so much less?
It does one job (paperwork, expiry dates and chasing), not HR, payroll or training. There's no sales team: we'll happily show you on a live call, but nobody follows up, there's no quote and no contract to negotiate. It's one published price: A$49 a month plus GST, with 100 active people included. Above 100 at once, each extra person is 5 cents a day while they hold a live link, so 150 subcontractors with live links all month comes to about A$124 in total. You pay for the account, never the people you onboard.
