What usually goes wrong
Agency records need faster onboarding and firmer end dates than permanent-worker records. Employer, placement, evidence source and local briefing should remain visible throughout.
Evidence follows after allocation
A worker can be placed on a shift before legible certificates or card details reach the site team.
Old placements inflate coverage
Temporary workers remain on live matrices after leaving, making available headcount look stronger than it is.
See the work list, not a coloured grid
Expired, expiring and missing records surface as actions — without recolouring cells by hand each Friday.

Build evidence checks into temporary-worker onboarding
Request the named evidence before the placement, verify it to the level your process requires and assign only the relevant role and site records. Mark pending evidence as pending, not current. Add a placement end date so leavers disappear from operational views while retained history follows your policy.
A practical record structure
- Agency, worker identity and placement period
- Exact role and planned tasks
- Evidence supplied by the agency and verification status
- Local induction or familiarisation completed
- Archive trigger and data-retention owner
Keep the decision with the responsible team
FieldClear can record information supplied about an agency worker, but it does not verify identity automatically, transfer employer duties or decide whether the person is suitable for a task. FieldClear tracks assigned requirements, expiry dates and uploaded evidence. It does not determine legal duties, certify competence or authorise work, and this page is not legal or health and safety advice.
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
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 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.
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 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 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.
Your training matrix already exists. Make it useful.
Upload your spreadsheet and turn it into a live view of who’s current, what’s expiring and what needs attention.
