Improve contractor safety. Enforce compliance. Protect your business.
Managing contractors safely and consistently is one of the biggest challenges facing construction sites, industrial facilities, and high-risk workplaces. Paper sign-in books, disconnected inductions, and informal warnings leave organisations exposed — legally, operationally, and reputationally.
That’s why TPR Max, delivered by ACS Safety & Security Ltd, includes a digital Yellow & Red Card system fully integrated into contractor registration, compliance tracking, and site access control.
What is the Yellow & Red Card system?
The Yellow & Red Card system is a behaviour-based safety enforcement model, widely recognised across UK construction and industrial environments.
Within TPR Max, this system becomes digital, auditable, and enforceable in real time.
Contractor status at a glance:
- 🟢 Clear – Compliant
- 🟨 Yellow Card – Warning
- 🔴 Red Card – Banned
Each status is clearly visible on the contractor dashboard, removing ambiguity and enabling fast, confident decision-making.
Yellow Card – Formal Safety Warning
A Yellow Card is issued when a contractor breaches site rules or safe working procedures without creating immediate serious danger.
Common examples:
- PPE non-compliance
- Failure to follow site induction rules
- Minor RAMS or permit deviations
- Poor housekeeping
- Incorrect sign-in or sign-out
What TPR Max does automatically:
- Records the incident against the individual contractor
- Updates their live safety status
- Flags them as “Yellow Card – Warning”
- Creates an audit trail for compliance and reporting
- Enables escalation if further breaches occur
This ensures warnings are consistent, documented, and defensible.
Red Card – Immediate Site Ban
A Red Card is reserved for serious or repeated breaches where safety, security, or conduct is unacceptable.
Typical triggers include:
- Unsafe work at height
- Bypassing lock-out / tag-out procedures
- Working without authorisation or induction
- Aggressive or abusive behaviour
- Repeated Yellow Card offences
With TPR Max, a Red Card:
- Immediately marks the contractor as Banned
- Prevents check-in and site access
- Can trigger access control suspension
- Is logged permanently for audit and insurer review
- Can be reset only by authorised personnel
This removes risk from site instantly, not hours or days later.
Fully Integrated with Contractor Registration
Unlike standalone safety systems, the Yellow & Red Card feature in TPR Max is fully integrated with:
- Contractor registration
- Digital inductions
- Certification tracking (e.g. CSCS)
- Live check-in / check-out
- Compliance status
- Reporting and audits
Supervisors can see who is on site, their safety rating, and their compliance status in one screen.
Built for Compliance & Legal Protection
The system supports compliance with:
- Health & Safety at Work Act 1974
- CDM Regulations 2015
- ISO 45001 & ISO 9001
- Insurer and client audit requirements
Most importantly, it demonstrates active enforcement, not just written policy — a critical factor following incidents or inspections.
Consistency Across All Contractors
One of the biggest causes of disputes is inconsistent enforcement. TPR Max ensures:
- Everyone is treated equally
- Decisions are recorded, not subjective
- Escalation rules are clear
- Managers have full visibility
This improves safety culture, reduces conflict, and strengthens contractor relationships.
Why Digital Beats Paper Every Time
Paper-based systems fail because they are:
- Easy to bypass
- Hard to audit
- Impossible to enforce in real time
- Lost when you need them most
TPR Max replaces paper with:
✔ Live dashboards
✔ Instant status updates
✔ Permanent records
✔ Real-time enforcement
Designed for Real-World Sites
This feature is already proving invaluable across:
- Construction sites
- Manufacturing facilities
- Utilities & energy
- Logistics & warehousing
- Education & healthcare estates
Anywhere contractors operate, TPR Max provides control, clarity, and confidence.
Take Control of Contractor Safety
The Yellow & Red Card system is not about punishment — it’s about prevention, accountability, and protection.
With TPR Max, ACS Safety & Security Ltd gives organisations the tools to:
- Reduce incidents
- Protect workers
- Demonstrate compliance
- Defend against claims
- Operate safer sites
