Site Access Role Updates – March 2020

In March 2020, We introduced new functionality to help Visy contractors manage site access requirements.

Workers that previously had roles assigned with either the Previously Inducted or New Worker suffix have been transitioned to the Site Access Role for each of their Visy sites.

For roles which require inductions to be completed, you will be given the option to either upload the completed induction certificate, or to invite your worker to complete the induction online.

Please continue to maintain site access requirements to avoid any site access disruption.
