FieldClear

CHAS Training Records Without the Overnight Scramble

Keep worker training, expiry dates and certificate evidence organised so CHAS-related questionnaires and audits are a filter and export — not a midnight folder hunt. FieldClear does not accredit you or submit applications.

  • See expired, expiring and missing records before you answer the questionnaire
  • Certificates attached to the worker — not buried in email
  • Import the matrix you already maintain
  • Export or filter when evidence is requested

Know the gaps before renewal season

CHAS and related SSIP assessments often fail on missing dates and orphaned PDFs more than on missing intent. A live matrix shows what needs attention while you still have time.

Evidence next to the date

Attach the card photo or certificate PDF to the worker record. When an assessor or client asks for proof, you are not hunting a shared drive.

Reminders between assessment cycles

Schemes ask periodically. Cards expire every week. Spreadsheets record the date; they cannot email you sixty days out.

  • Warnings before renewals, not after
  • You choose who gets reminded
  • Each reminder links to the workers involved

What CHAS-related checks usually need from training records

Assessors and buyers typically want evidence that your workforce holds the training and qualifications your organisation says it requires — with dates that have not quietly lapsed, and documents you can produce on request. Exact questions differ by assessment type and year.

FieldClear helps you keep an operational record in that shape. It does not replace CHAS, interpret their criteria, or guarantee an outcome.

What FieldClear does not do

  • It does not accredit you, assess you, or submit CHAS applications.
  • It does not tell you which training CHAS or your clients require — you assign requirements based on your work and competent advice.
  • It does not guarantee a pass. Green status means the date you entered has not yet passed your configured threshold — not that a worker is authorised for any particular site.

How teams usually get ready

  1. Upload the training matrix you already use.
  2. Confirm roles and which requirements each role carries.
  3. Attach missing certificates and fix text dates that break sorting.
  4. Turn on reminders so the next renewal is not a surprise.
  5. When evidence is requested, filter to the workers in scope and export from the record.

You can keep using Excel. But Excel won’t chase expiries for you.

Excel is flexible, familiar and free, which is exactly why almost every contractor starts there. The limitation isn’t the spreadsheet — it’s that a spreadsheet can only tell you what someone last typed into it.

Plenty of contractors run a perfectly good spreadsheet for years. The question isn’t whether Excel works — it’s whether anyone is checking it the week something quietly expires.

Questions people ask before signing up

Does FieldClear get us CHAS or SafeContractor accredited?

No. Accreditation schemes set their own criteria and assess your organisation. FieldClear helps you keep the training records, expiry dates and evidence that audits often ask to see — it does not replace the accreditation process or guarantee a pass.

Does the software tell me which qualifications are legally required?

No. The system helps you track the requirements your organisation assigns. You remain responsible for determining what applies to your workers and activities. We do not provide legal or health and safety advice.

Can I import my existing Excel training matrix?

Yes. Upload an Excel or CSV file, map the columns to workers, roles, qualifications and expiry dates, then preview the result. Nothing is created until you confirm the import.

Can I store certificates?

Yes. Attach supporting evidence such as PDFs and images to worker records, so the certificate sits alongside the expiry date rather than in a separate folder.

Can I get reminders before certificates expire?

Yes. The system monitors expiry dates and sends reminders in advance. You choose how far ahead reminders are sent and who receives them.

Can I track subcontractors?

Yes. Workers can be recorded as employees, subcontractors, agency workers or other worker types, and you can filter the matrix by type.

How does the free trial work?

You get 14 days with the full product and no card required. Import your matrix, invite colleagues and see whether it fits how you work. If you do nothing at the end of the trial, the account simply stops.

Is my data private?

Each organisation's data is isolated from every other organisation's. Documents and records are encrypted in transit and at rest, access is controlled by user permissions, and you can export or delete your data at any time. We host in the UK and EU.
