FieldClear

Temporary Works Training Matrix — Awareness Is Not the Appointment

Track temporary-works awareness, coordinator and supervisor records separately. FieldClear does not appoint a TWC or approve a design.

  • Awareness, supervisor and coordinator kept distinct
  • Appointment remains your process
  • Expiry visible before a design is implemented
  • Import the TW register you already keep

Three different records, one spreadsheet column

Awareness courses, supervisor tickets and coordinator training are not interchangeable. Keep them as separate requirements so a gang is not staffed on the wrong one.

The register and the people diverge

Temporary-works registers track designs. People still need current records. The matrix is the people side; the register stays the design side.

Reminders before the next pouring or strike

A lapsed coordinator record discovered mid-sequence is a programme problem. Warnings exist so you can reappoint or retrain in time.

  • Separate requirements per TW role
  • You choose recipients
  • Appointment still happens outside FieldClear

Quick answer

A temporary works training matrix records who holds which assigned awareness, supervisor or coordinator training, with dates and evidence. FieldClear does not appoint a temporary works coordinator, check designs, or replace BS 5975 processes.

The TWC cell

Spreadsheets mark one person “TWC” with a date that might be an awareness course. The appointment letter lives in email. When that person leaves, the cell stays green. Separate the training record from the appointment act.

Track training; appoint on paper you control

  1. Create separate requirements for awareness, supervisor and coordinator training.
  2. Enter dates from the certificates you hold.
  3. Attach files.
  4. Keep the actual appointment in your own TW procedure.
  5. Review named people before implementing a design.

What FieldClear does not do

  • It does not appoint a TWC, TWS or designer.
  • It does not approve or check temporary-works designs.
  • A green cell is not permission to erect, load or strike.

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 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.

Who is FieldClear for?

Contractors, trades and facilities teams that keep a training matrix or certificate register — typically about 10 to 200 active workers. It fits teams replacing Excel for expiry tracking, evidence and reminders. It is not an LMS, not an accreditation service, and not a full HSEQ suite for RAMS, COSHH or equivalent site documentation.

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.
