Control your highest-risk work

A permit to work is a formal way of making sure that the most dangerous tasks only go ahead when the right precautions are confirmed and the right person has authorised it. Hot work, confined space entry and work at height are exactly the activities where a missed control can be fatal, and where a clear, recorded authorisation process matters most.

Featherstone Safety Hub gives you a structured permit workflow, so each high-risk task is raised, checked, authorised and closed with a record of who did what and when.

  • Full approval workflow: raise, submit, authorise, activate and close permits with clear status.
  • High-risk task types: hot work, confined space, work at height, electrical and more.
  • Precautions confirmed: record the controls in place before work is authorised to start.
  • Audit trail: keep a complete, timestamped record of every permit.
  • Contractor link: connect permits to the contractor carrying out the work.

Built for the work that carries the most risk

Permit to work systems are essential in environments such as manufacturing, breweries, facilities management and construction, where confined spaces, hot work and work at height are routine. Featherstone Safety Hub gives smaller operations the same disciplined control that larger sites rely on, without the enterprise cost or complexity.

Part of your wider compliance

Permits sit alongside your risk assessments, RAMS, contractor register and incident register, so high-risk work is controlled in the same system as everything else. Permit to Work is a £29 per month add-on to any plan, with a 14-day free trial and no long-term contract.
