Compliance · External sign-off

External Safety Officers, signed off by lunchtime

Send a secure link. They review the SWMS or JSA on any device, sign with a finger, done. No accounts, no app install, no 14-email back-and-forth. Auto-escalates if they sit on it.

How it works

External sign-off without the chase

Send a sign-off link, not a PDF + 14 emails

From any SWMS or JSA, request safety-officer sign-off. Burgy generates a secure link tied to that document and the named officer. Share via email, SMS, whatever — they don't need a Burgy account, don't need to install anything, and the link works on any device.

  • One link per officer per document
  • Time-limited and revocable
  • No account or app install needed
  • Email + SMS templates pre-filled

Officer reviews and signs on their phone

They open the link, see the full SWMS — scope, hazards, controls, who's involved. Tap Sign, draw signature, done. Burgy timestamps it, captures their name, IP, and device, and attaches it to the document. The officer's sign-off appears on the official PDF alongside worker signatures.

  • Full document visible (not a watermarked preview)
  • Drawn signature with timestamp + audit metadata
  • Comments / amendments box if they want changes
  • Sign-off renders on the master PDF

No reply? Burgy escalates automatically

If the officer doesn't sign within the window you set (24 hrs default), Burgy notifies the next escalation contact — typically the Site Supervisor or HSE Manager. The escalation chain is logged so an auditor can see exactly who was notified, when, and what happened next.

  • Configurable timeout per request (4 hrs to 7 days)
  • Multi-step escalation chain (1st → 2nd → 3rd contact)
  • Full notification log in the document history
  • Resend or revoke the link anytime
