OnSiteSafety™ TrustID · How verification works

How verification works.

A credential earns trust step by step. Each step adds more certainty, from the moment a ticket is first added to the moment an authority confirms it. Here is the whole ladder, in plain words, so everyone knows exactly what a status stands for.

The verification ladder

Six plain steps, each building on the one before it.

1. Added

The worker records that they hold a credential. It is on the passport, but nothing has been checked yet. This is the starting point.

2. Uploaded

The worker attaches the actual ticket, card, or certificate. There is now a document on file to check against, not just a claim.

3. Reviewed

A reviewer reads the upload and confirms it is complete, legible, and matches the credential the worker added. Obvious problems are caught here.

4. Source-checked

The details are checked against the original source of the credential, so the names, dates, and numbers line up with the real record, not just the copy on file.

5. Issuer-verified

The organization that issued the credential confirms it is genuine and was granted to this worker. The trail now reaches back to who actually gave the ticket.

6. Authority-verified

The governing authority for that credential confirms it directly. This is the strongest step on the ladder, and the basis for a Verified, Site-ready status that an employer can rely on.

The Status Assurance Level (SAL)

Each credential carries a Status Assurance Level, or SAL, a plain measure of how far up the ladder it has climbed. The further a credential has gone, the higher its SAL, and the more weight an employer can place on it.

  • Why it exists. Not every credential needs the same depth of checking. SAL lets an employer see at a glance how strongly a given ticket is backed.
  • How it rises. Each step on the ladder, from Added through Authority-verified, lifts the SAL. The top of the ladder carries the highest assurance.
  • What employers set. An employer can decide the SAL a role or site calls for, so workers know exactly what is needed to be Site-ready.
  • Always honest. A status never claims more than the checking behind it. If a credential is only partway up the ladder, its SAL says so.

What you see on site

Verified

The credential has been checked and is current. Counts toward being Site-ready.

Checking

The credential is moving up the ladder. A step is still in progress.

Expired

The credential has lapsed and needs renewing before it counts again.

Add your tickets once and let them climb the ladder. The further they go, the easier it is to prove you are Site-ready.
