Shift Management - How are open shifts closed in the RIW System?


RIW cardholders are expected to swipe out of every shift worked on a site and should be encouraged to swipe out as part of their daily site exiting process. Ideally, cardholders should swipe out of a site the same way that were swiped in. 


There may be instances where a cardholder cannot swipe out at a site due to a Kiosk not being available or the Access Controller having left the site.


This process is to provide guidance on automated system behaviour and how shifts may be closed for cardholders that have a swipe that is open from an outstanding previous shift, where working hour rules have been configured for a site.


PLEASE NOTE: It is industry best practice that all cardholders swipe out of every shift. Network Operators, Employers, Project Admins and Site Admins should encourage all site attendees to swipe in and out of sites to ensure a true record of shift length is recorded.




This instruction applies to the following user roles:

  • Advanced Project Admin
  • Access Controller
  • Employer Admin
  • Employer Admin - No Payment
  • Employer Admin - Read Only
  • Helpdesk
  • Network Manager
  • Network Manager - Read Only
  • Project Admin
  • Site Admin
  • Rail Industry Worker (myRIW)


In all the scenarios below, any open shifts that are automatically closed will default to a 12 hour shift duration and the swipe event will have the Card Checker column recorded as automatic.



Scenario 1 - Cardholder does not swipe out (shift is open) and then swipes into a site at a Kiosk 

Where a cardholder has an open shift and swipes into a Kiosk on a subsequent shift, any previous shift that has not be signed out will automatically close and the cardholder will be swiped out from the previous shift. A 12 hour shift duration will be applied.


Scenario 2 - Cardholder does not swipe out (shift is open) and then swipes into a site with an Access Controller

Where a cardholder has an open shift and swipes in with an Access Controller on a subsequent shift, and then the Access Controller swipes out the cardholder on the current shift, any previous open shifts that have not be signed out will automatically close and the cardholder will be swiped out from all shifts. A 12 hour shift duration will be applied.


Scenario 3 - Muster List swipe out activity

An RIW System user from a Network Operator, Project or Site can produce a Muster List of all open shifts in the RIW System and can swipe out cardholders that have failed to sign out.  A 12 hour shift duration will be applied. For more information about this, please refer to How does a company manage the Muster List?


Scenario 4 - Automatic sign out after 24 hours

An RIW System generated script is run each day that closes any open shifts that occurred greater than 24 hours ago, if the shift is still open. A 12 hour shift duration will be applied.


Scenario 5 - Automatic sign out after planned RIW System service interruption

An RIW System generated script is run after a planned service interruption that closes any open shifts that occurred 12 hours ago, if the shift is still open. A 12 hour shift duration will be applied.

On the Swipes screen, use the search filters to refine the results you want to display. Click Search.

You can filter by Rail Industry Worker, Job Role, Project, Site, Zone and Start/End Date and Time. By default, only swipes for active sites will display, but you can deselect this flag if required.

A swipe event is a type of recorded event, such as Swipe In, Swipe Out, Kiosk Swipe In, Spot Check etc. Refer to What are the different type of swipe events and deny reasons in the RIW System? for more information.



Once an event has been chosen from the Event drop down, click Filter. The table will update accordingly.

If you adjust the search parameters or filters, you must click Search or Filter to refresh the map view.

Interacting with the map by double clicking on a site will refresh the data table and display only that site data.

Depending on your view, the below window will display how many projects and sites are visible in the view, and how many swipe events have been recorded by individuals. It will also provide a heat map of when swipe activity occurred (note: this is in UTC time).

You can toggle between a Map or Satellite view, fullscreen or tilt view, or use the zoom in or zoom out functions.



The map view is also found on the muster list. For more information refer to How to use the muster list.
