Global Compliance Rules
Configure all-sites requirements that apply on every compliance scan
What all-sites requirements do
All-sites requirements (labelled All-sites requirements in Site settings) apply on every compliance scan at any site, in addition to per-site rules. Use these for organisation-wide standards such as induction training, CSCS cards, or a general stress questionnaire.
When a scanner runs a compliance check, the worker must satisfy both all-sites requirements and any per-site requirements for the scanned location. Missing either layer produces an AMBER or Entry Denied result. See Compliance Scanner for how results are displayed.
Who can configure global rules
Only tenant administrators can view and edit the All-sites requirements section. Site administrators can configure per-site rules and scanners for their assigned sites but cannot add or remove tenant-wide requirements.
Viewing rules without editing
The Site Management dashboard All sites overview card lists current all-sites requirements read-only. Any user with Site Management access can see what is configured; only tenant admins can change it.
Add a requirement
Open All-sites requirements
Go to Site Management → Site settings → left nav All-sites requirements. If the list is empty you will see No tenant-wide rules yet.
Choose type and linked item
Select a Type from the dropdown, then pick the linked item from the conditional picker that appears:
- Course — choose from active catalog courses
- External certificate — choose from courses in category External Certificate
- Risk / questionnaire — choose from published risk or questionnaire templates
Add requirement
Click Add all-sites requirement. A success toast confirms the rule was added. The requirement appears in the list with a formatted label. Click Remove to delete a rule.
Tip
Requirement types
| Type | What to select | Satisfied when |
|---|---|---|
| Course | Any active catalog course (not External Certificate category) | Worker completed the course (passed or completed progress) |
| External certificate | Course in category External Certificate | Approved, non-expired external certificate submission on file |
| Risk / questionnaire | Published risk or questionnaire template | Approved submission for that template (any site) |
For risk templates, an all-sites rule is satisfied by an Approved submission at any site. Per-site risk rules (covered in Per-Site Compliance Rules) additionally require the submission site to match the scanned site.
Prerequisites by type
Course requirements
The course must exist in your catalog under Admin → Courses. Active courses appear in the picker automatically. Courses in the External Certificate category are excluded from the Course type — use the External certificate type instead.
External certificate requirements
Create a catalog course with category External Certificate — see Adding Courses. Workers upload their certificate; an admin approves it before the rule is satisfied. If the picker is empty, the UI shows: No courses with category "External Certificate" in your catalog.
Risk / questionnaire requirements
Create and publish a template under Site Management → Risk assessments — see Creating Templates. Only published templates appear in the compliance picker. Empty state: No risk or questionnaire templates yet. Use Risk assessments in Site Management to create one, publish a version, then return here.
Warning
Common global rules

| Annual stress self-assessment for all staff | Risk / questionnaire | Use a questionnaire blueprint; set expiry in template Configure |
| GDPR awareness questionnaire | Risk / questionnaire | Can auto-approve high scores if approval threshold is configured |

Troubleshooting
| Issue | Likely cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Risk template missing from picker | No published version | Open template editor → Publish |
