The Key People tile in the Chime app makes it easy to identify the main people on a site, such as the contracts manager, site manager, first aider, or anyone else you want your team to quickly recognise and contact. Key People are managed on the desktop via the Site Directory (see Site Directory Article), and once assigned, they appear in the mobile app whenever a user is signed into that site.
This ensures everyone knows who is responsible on-site and gives direct access to contact details in case of need.
Managing Key People on the Desktop
Select the Chime Time tile.
Click on the Sites tab.
Open the site you want to update.
On the Site Profile Page, select the Site Directory from the explorer menu on the left-hand side.
Add people as described in the Site Directory guide.
To make someone a Key Person, tick the Key Person box next to their name.
Viewing Key People on the Chime App
Sign into a site using the Chime app.
On the home screen, scroll down to find the Key People tile.
Select the tile to view a list of Key People, including their name and directory role.
Tap the phone icon next to their name to call them directly if needed.
Use Case
Super-users, admins, and contracts managers manage Key People on the desktop by updating the site directory.
All Chime app users can view Key People once signed into a site. The Key People tile only appears when logged into a site, making it context-specific and relevant.
💡 Tips
Assign Key People for roles like site manager, health & safety officer, or first aider to ensure visibility.
Keep the Key People list up to date when staff rotate or new people join.
Remember: the Key People tile only appears once signed into a site.
