Workforce Compliance Software — Honest About the Scope

Many searches for workforce compliance software need training matrices and certificate expiry tracking. That is what FieldClear does. It is not a full legal-compliance, HR or permit platform.

  • Training and qualification records with expiry dates
  • Clear boundary — records help, they do not certify compliance
  • Import your existing spreadsheet
  • Reminders before certificates lapse

14-day free trial. No card required.

What buyers usually mean

“Workforce compliance” in contractor search often means: who is current on assigned training, what expires soon, and can we produce the certificate. That is a training matrix job.

What we build for

Upload the matrix, calculate status from dates, attach evidence, send reminders. Operational readiness for audits and gate checks — not a substitute for competent H&S advice.

What we will not pretend to be

We are not a full compliance management suite, permit-to-work system, HRIS or legal-determination engine. Those are different products.

How it works

From spreadsheet to live matrix in minutes.

No implementation project. No onboarding calls. Start with the file you already maintain.

  1. Step 1: Upload your matrix

    Import your existing Excel or CSV file.

  2. Step 2: We organise it

    Map workers, roles, requirements and expiry dates.

  3. Step 3: See what needs attention

    Instantly see expired, expiring and missing requirements.

Quick answer

If you need workforce compliance software to track training, qualifications and certificate expiry across contractors and trades, FieldClear fits that slice: a live training matrix with evidence and reminders. It does not determine legal compliance, manage permits, run payroll, or guarantee audit outcomes. Green status means the date you entered has not yet passed your threshold.

Keeping that boundary honest saves you buying the wrong category — and keeps our claims accurate.

When to upload your spreadsheet here

  • Your “compliance tracker” is mostly names, tickets and dates
  • You colour cells manually before audits or mobilisations
  • Evidence lives in folders rather than on the row
  • You want reminders without opening Excel every Monday

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.

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.

Is this an LMS?

No. The product tracks workforce qualifications, evidence and expiry dates. It does not deliver e-learning courses or assessments.

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.

Who is FieldClear for?

UK 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 or COSHH.

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.

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.
