Labour hire software

Labour hire software built for the people on the tools

Worker compliance kept current, mobile dockets on every shift, hours feeding straight to Xero. Built for labour hire operators who'd rather be placing crews than reconciling paper on Friday.

Labour hire needs three things to actually work

Worker compliance kept current. The shift captured the moment it happens. Hours that turn into an invoice without anyone re-typing them. Most labour hire software does one of those properly. Burgy does all three.

Compliance, before mobilisation

Licences + tickets + inductions on every worker. Expiry alerts before anything lapses. Site-required licences flagged before you assign a worker.

Dockets on the phone

Worker hits a button at the end of the shift, host employer signs on the screen. No paper to lose, no story to re-construct on Friday.

Xero, automatically

Labour hours land in Xero against the right client and job code. You invoice from the data, not a memory of who said what.

  • Licences, tickets and inductions per worker
  • Expiry alerts before things lapse
  • Site-required licences flagged before mobilisation
  • Document upload for every credential

Site sign-in for any worker

Your hired-out crew clocks in on their phone. Subbies and visitors use a QR code or public URL at the gate — no app, no account, no problem. All hours land in the same site record.

  • One-tap clock in / clock out
  • QR code or public URL for casuals + visitors
  • Captures name, ABN, contact
  • Live headcount per site

Mobile dockets, signed on the spot

When a worker finishes a shift the docket gets captured on their phone — date, site, hours, work performed, host employer signature. No paper, no lost slips, no Friday reconciliation.

  • Mobile docket per shift
  • Host employer signs on the device
  • Stored against the worker, job and client
  • Direct Xero invoicing for hours billed

  • Licence + ticket uploads
  • Induction sign-on per company / site
  • Office sees the new starter before day one

SWMS + JSA per crew

Labour-hire crews working on high-risk construction need a SWMS. Burgy drafts the SWMS in minutes with AI-assisted hazards, your crew signs on their phone, stored against the job.

  • AI-drafted SWMS for high-risk construction
  • JSA and Take 5 for non-high-risk tasks
  • Crew sign-on captured digitally
  • One copy per job, host employer can view

Hours straight to Xero

Worker hours and machine hours both feed Xero with the right job code and client. Invoice the host employer with the actual numbers, not a guess from a paper docket.

  • Labour hours to Xero by client + job
  • Machine hours for wet hire crews
  • Set up once, runs every pay period
  • Disputes resolved with the source data

FAQ

Labour hire software, answered

What does labour hire software need to do?

Three things: keep every worker's compliance current (licences, inductions, tickets), capture what they actually did on site (clock-in, hours, dockets), and turn that into an invoice for the host employer. Burgy does all three on one platform.

How does Burgy handle worker compliance?

Every labour-hire worker has a profile with their licences, tickets and inductions, plus expiry dates. Burgy flags expiries before they happen so you don't send a worker out with a lapsed ticket. Site-required licences are flagged before a worker is assigned to a job.

Do my labour-hire workers need a Burgy login?

Yes for your own crew, but visitors and subbie sign-ins can use a public sign-in URL or QR code at the gate — no app required. Their hours sit in the same site record as the rest of the crew.

How does invoicing the host employer work?

Worker hours flow straight to Xero, against the right client and job code. You invoice based on what was actually worked — not what someone wrote on a paper docket on Friday afternoon. Disputes get sorted in 30 seconds because the evidence is right there.

Can Burgy handle multiple host employers (different sites at the same time)?

Yes. Burgy is set up around jobs and sites, not just one client. A worker can be at Site A on Monday and Site B on Tuesday, and the hours go to the right invoice automatically.

Does it work for both blue-collar trades and white-collar labour hire?

Burgy is most at home with trades and civil — workers on physical sites who use a phone. The compliance, dockets and time-tracking translate to any field where a labour hire model is used.
