To apply for a new PTW, an administrator starts a New Permit Application and shares an application link with the applicant &#8211; either by emailing a specific applicant or vendor, or by generating a Generic Application URL that can be shared with anyone. The applicant then opens the link, selects the Permit to Work Type (if allowed), fills in the required details, and submits the application, which then appears on the Permit to Work page and moves through the configured approval workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div

From the Permit to Work page, a New Permit Application can be sent directly to an applicant or vendor by email, or shared as a Generic Application URL that any applicant can use &#8211; which is ideal for contractors, notice boards, or QR codes. Because the application link can either fix the Permit Type or let the applicant choose it, and because every submission flows into the same review and approval process, organisations get a consistent, auditable way to authorise high-risk work while making it easy for applicants to apply from anywhere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction FacilityBot&#8217;s Permit to Work (PTW) feature lets organizations control high-risk activities by requiring applicants to submit a permit application for review [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","knowledgebase_cat":[44],"class_list":["post-9751","knowledgebase","type-knowledgebase","status-publish","hentry","knowledgebase_cat-manager-web-portal"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.9 -
