In 2025, advanced access control systems are pivotal for enhancing construction site security and operational efficiency. Platforms like Eyrus offer comprehensive solutions that address several critical aspects:

Building a Worker Database

Efficient worker registration and onboarding processes are essential. Eyrus streamlines these by allowing workers to self-register, complete profiles, and upload necessary certifications. This centralized database ensures that only credentialed personnel access the site, bolstering security and compliance.  

With Eyrus, you can register workers, onboard them, collect signatures, run background checks, and collect data you need to report on:

• Name, cell phone, address, ethnicity

• Certifications, training dates, safety cards

• Health notes and emergency contacts

• Info needed to automate payroll

Then, print out custom Eyrus NFC badges on site and the worker is ready to go.

Managing Access Across the Site

Advanced access control extends beyond entry points, enabling management of specific zones within the site. Eyrus facilitates scheduling site access, authorizing entry based on certifications, and implementing digital worker registration. This granular control ensures that only authorized individuals access sensitive areas, enhancing overall site security.  

With one badge and the Eyrus platform, you can control access to your whole site:

• Turnstiles, Vehicle Gate Arms, Exterior/Interior Doors, etc.

• Tool areas, toolboxes, trailers, bathrooms

• Vehicles and equipment (coming Q2 2025)

Turnstiles are increasingly popular as a way to easily control access to worksites. Eyrus hardware and software can work with any turnstile – but we have some great turnstile partners that we recommend.

Integrating Video Surveillance

Combining access control with video surveillance provides a comprehensive security solution. Eyrus integrates these systems to offer AI-enhanced monitoring, real-time alerts, and advanced analytics. Features such as AI detection of people and vehicles, loudspeakers for deterrence, and night vision capabilities enhance the effectiveness of site monitoring.  

Run video surveillance and afterhours video monitoring through Eyrus.  

• Eyrus Sentry Boxes are built for perimeter security.

• Single cameras for surveilling doors  

• Video clips integrated and synced with access logs.

• A.I. detection of people, vehicles, and unsafe behavior.

• After-hours monitoring by live agents.

Automating Payroll and Workforce Reporting

Automated time and attendance tracking is crucial for accurate payroll and reporting. Eyrus captures real-time data on workforce presence, reducing manual entry errors and providing reliable labor records. This automation streamlines payroll processes and offers detailed insights into workforce dynamics.  

Access logs serve as objective timestamps – let Eyrus automate timesheets for you and all your subs, so every payroll is certified before you even think about it.
