Site inductions for everyone on your site via WhatsApp
Visitors, contractors and drivers scan a QR code at the gate and complete your site induction on their own phone, in their own language. Once they have finished, they get the green light, and you see exactly who came on site and when.
Don’t just take our word for it: these organisations already see the benefits of E-lia.

E-lia customerFrom a queue at the gatehouse to the green light in minutes
Every day a different group turns up at the gate: subcontractors, drivers, suppliers and visitors. Everyone needs to know the rules before going on site.
Explaining them at the gatehouse takes time, and afterwards it is hard to prove who has seen what.
With E-lia everyone completes the site induction on arrival on their own phone, and everything is recorded automatically. Read how Jan De Nul does it.
How a digital site induction works
- Scan. At the gate, the visitor scans the QR code for that location with their own phone camera.
- Sign in. Name, company and phone number are all it takes. No account, no app and no code.
- Complete the induction. Short messages with images or video, in their own language, ending with a few check questions.
- Green light. Once finished, they show the confirmation message at the gate. You see it in your dashboard straight away.
What you see behind the scenes
Everyone who comes through the gate sees a short induction on their phone.
In the dashboard you see who completed the induction, from which company, when and with what result. Your evidence at an audit or after an incident.
Every location has its own risks, its own assembly point and often a different mix of languages. You create a separate induction and QR code for each location.
We help you set up each site and turn your existing induction, PDF or PowerPoint into short messages.
In the dashboard
- Per person: company, date and result of the check questions
- An overview by location and by group
- Export to Excel or PDF for your ISO 45001 audit or client
- A shareable link that lets an auditor view the records, without a login

Frequently asked questions about site inductions
What is a site induction?
A site induction is the safety briefing everyone receives before entering a site, yard or premises: site rules, risks, mandatory PPE and what to do in an incident.
In construction, CDM 2015 requires every worker to receive a suitable site induction. With E-lia, everyone completes it on their own phone.
Do visitors need to install an app?
No. A QR scan with the phone camera starts the induction in WhatsApp. No app, account or login is needed.
What if someone doesn’t have WhatsApp?
Then the induction runs by email or through web chat in the browser. The content and the record are exactly the same.
Which languages is the induction available in?
In English, Polish, Romanian, Portuguese and more than 50 other languages. The visitor chooses their language when signing in, and the induction is translated automatically.
How does it work across multiple locations?
Each location gets its own QR code with the induction that applies there. You create these yourself in the platform.
We help you set up each site, for example with the right languages for the people who come there.
Can I use my existing site induction?
Certainly. We convert your existing induction, PDF or PowerPoint into short messages with images and check questions.
How do I prove who has completed the induction?
The dashboard shows the company, date and check question results for each person.
You export it to Excel or PDF, or share a link that lets an auditor view it without a login.
Which organisations is this suitable for?
For any organisation with a steady flow of visitors and contractors on site: construction companies, industry, logistics, ports and manufacturers.
It works for one location or for all your sites.
