Assign contractors to a project

In this article: Add contractors to a job and see which of them fall short of that job's requirements.

Applies to Pro plan

Assigning a contractor to a project puts them in that project's compliance view and judges them against that project's requirements.

  1. Open the project

    Open the project from the sidebar.

  2. Add contractors

    Add contractors from your roster. You can add as many as you need; a contractor can be on several projects at once.

  3. Read the list

    The project's list now shows each contractor's status for this job — which is not always the same as their overall status, if the job requires more than your organization-wide floor.

Reading the list

A contractor showing as short here has either failed your organization floor or this project's higher bar. Open them to see which — the difference decides whether you're asking for a new certificate or a project-specific endorsement.

Removing someone

Remove them from the project when the job ends. It doesn't touch their record, their documents or their overall status — it just stops them being counted in this project's view, and stops this project's requirements applying to them.

Tip

Keeping projects current is what makes the compliance view worth reading. A project still listing everyone who ever worked on it will always show somebody as short, and after a while nobody looks.

A contractor's own Assignments tab shows every project they're on, which is the quickest way to answer "where is this contractor working for us?"
