This setting determines whether a company is also blocked when a company higher up in its chain still has outstanding or rejected company assessments.
Why use it?
Keep this setting switched on if a company may only work once the whole chain above it is in order. Switch it off if you want to look at a company's own assessments only.
Applies to
Organisation level
Project level
You can find this setting in the project settings, on the Fair tab, under General > Assessments.
At organisation level, it is in the organisation settings, under Organisation-level default settings. Choose Edit these settings there.
If you choose Default setting at project level, the project follows the organisation's setting. Next to Default setting, you can see which value that is.
Options
Yes (default setting)
Oribi WorkpassID first checks whether the company's own assessments are in order. It then checks the chain: all companies between this company and the main contractor. Does one of those companies still have a company assessment that has not been approved? Then the company's workers cannot register at the work location. You can see which company in the chain is causing the block.
If a company is deployed in several chains on the project, it is enough for one chain to be fully in order.
➕ A company cannot work while a company above it is not in order
➖ An outstanding assessment higher up the chain can block many companies at once
No
Only the company's own assessments count. Outstanding assessments of companies higher up the chain do not stop registration.
➕ Less chance of companies being blocked unexpectedly
➖ A company can work while the chain above it has not yet been approved
