The Partnership That Closes Every Gap in Jobsite Safety, Compliance, and Access

On a job site, the gate is the single most important decision point you have. Every person who walks through it is either cleared to be there or a liability waiting to happen, and most access systems cannot tell the two apart. They count bodies. They do not check credentials. SkillSignal and SafeSite USA close that gap at the turnstile, before any boot hits your jobsite.
We work exclusively with each other for your benefit. SafeSite USA handles the hardware. SkillSignal handles the compliance. At any given month we have dozens of turnstiles running on this combined system, deployed on projects across the country and anchored by a deep presence in the New York metro area. Together we protect property owners and general contractors from the two things that cost them the most: untracked access and non-compliant workers.
How it actually works
Every person who wants to enter the site has to be 100 percent compliant with your jobsite rules. That means verified credentials, a complete profile with photo, and a finished safety orientation. No exceptions. Workers use the SkillSignal app to complete their profile and all requirements in their proffered language. If anything is missing or expired the system knows before they ever reach the gate.
When a compliant worker walks up, SafeSite USA's hardware does the rest. A reader confirms the credential, a camera captures a snapshot of who is passing through, and the turnstile unlocks. If someone is not cleared, the gate stays shut. The data flows back into your reporting in real time, so you always have an accurate log of who was on site and when. When a missing attendance record can mean a civil penalty and an undertrained worker can cost you thousands, that log is not paperwork. It is protection.
The hardware behind the gate
SafeSite USA brings a full access control line built for construction:
Full-height turnstiles for maximum security at the perimeter. Simply power up and go.
SwiftPass, a portable turnstile for interior and mobile applications
Gateway for emergency egress on small gates and passageways
Secure Scan, the mobile app that turns a phone into a credential reader
Eye Site, Eye Site Pro 180, and Sunview 1 cameras for monitoring, including solar powered units for sites without reliable power
Units run on cellular service, so they work anywhere with a signal, including remote and early-stage sites with no power or wired internet. Every deployment comes with on-site setup, testing, and team training. SafeSite USA has been doing access control for over 30 years and is licensed by the Department of State, with a New York footprint that scales to projects nationwide.
A turnstile by itself controls a body. It does not know if that body belongs on your site. A compliance platform by itself tracks access. It cannot stop someone from walking past an open gate. Put them together and the gate becomes the enforcement point for your entire safety and risk program.
That is the difference for an owner or a GC. You are not just controlling access. You are guaranteeing that access only happens for people who are trained, documented, and cleared. Compliance stops being something you chase after an incident and becomes something the gate handles automatically, every entry, every shift.
Built for the way the trade builds
From the day you break ground to the ribbon cutting, the combined SkillSignal and SafeSite USA system grows with the project. Temporary or long term, one gate or a dozen, one site or a portfolio spread across the map, the standard never changes. Compliant in, controlled through, recorded the whole way.
