New Hospital Bispebjerg, with Region Hovedstaden
Workers and partners are approved digitally before they arrive. The solution is implemented over six months and then becomes a permanent part of the site's access.
SitePass
A digital ID card on every phone, built for Denmark's new ID-card law.
SitePass gives each worker and subcontractor a verified digital ID that checks them in, records their time on site, and opens the gates their access covers. It is among the first known solutions in Denmark to put AltID to use.

What is SitePass
SitePass registers the people who work on a site: employees, temporary staff and subcontractors. Each gets a credential in their own wallet that checks them in and opens the gates and doors their access covers. It works for an hour on site and for a contract of several months, and the same solution is in operation for Region Hovedstaden at New Hospital Bispebjerg.
Identity and consent are in place before the worker reaches the gate.
Every check-in, check-out and event on the card is logged in an audit log.
SitePass is not an access control system. It connects to the supplier management and access control systems the site already has.
The card is withdrawn when the person's time on the site ends.
How SitePass works
The flow connects two systems a site usually has already: supplier management, where workers are registered, and access control, which runs the gates and doors. A worker without AltID can verify with e-Boks ID or a passport scan instead.
Supplier management receives the workers who need access, and access control creates an access ID for each of them.
Access control asks Partisia to issue a credential to the worker's email address.
The worker verifies their identity with AltID and gives GDPR consent digitally.
Once the worker has Partisia ID Wallet, the construction site ID card is issued to it.
Partisia sends the record of the consent to access control.
The card checks the worker in, records their time on site, and opens the gates and doors their access covers.
Reference
Region Hovedstaden, Vitani and Partisia have joined identity, consent and access in one process on the construction of New Hospital Bispebjerg, a 70,000 m² hospital.
Workers and partners are approved digitally before they arrive. The solution is implemented over six months and then becomes a permanent part of the site's access.
A partnership bringing verifiable digital identity into physical access control, so a credential opens a door rather than a badge nobody checks.
How SitePass meets the ID-card law
The Act on ID cards on construction sites (Act no. 804 of 24 September 2026) puts each duty on the project owner. SitePass is built to help meet them.
Each worker gets a personal digital ID card, issued on the strength of a verified identity and holding what the law asks the card to hold.
Check-in and check-out are logged every time the card is used.
The log is the basis for the report. Its format waits on the executive orders.
The card is digitally signed, so its validity can be checked on the spot.
Visitors are registered through VisitorPass, in the same log as the workers.
Fines fall on the project owner. SitePass gives them one record of every card and every check-in on the site.
The law in detail
The Danish Parliament passed the law on 3 September 2026. The Minister of Employment sets the start date, which depends on who will issue the card.
The law covers construction projects with a total construction cost over DKK 100 million, excluding VAT, including design, consulting and financing (§ 1). The responsibility sits with the project owner.
Name, photo, nationality, CPR number or an equivalent unique ID, the residence address where the employer provides housing, job function, mandatory training, the employer's name, CVR and RUT number, the hiring company if the person is hired out, and the issue date. The card must also be able to name the employer's client (§ 5).
The Minister of Employment decides between a state-run card, issued by the Danish Working Environment Authority, and an industry-driven one. DA, FH and Danske Byggefag, backed by DI and DI Byggeri, have proposed a hybrid: the authorities run a central register and a basic ID, and time-on-site registration and reporting come from the ID solution the site picks.
eIDAS 2.0 and EU Digital Identity Wallets
Regulation (EU) 2024/1183 requires every EU member state to offer an EU Digital Identity Wallet by the end of 2026. Many people on Danish sites come from other EU countries, and the card follows W3C Verifiable Credentials, SD-JWT, OpenID4VCI and OpenID4VP, so any wallet that follows those standards can be used as it arrives. Partisia is a co-author of the Architecture and Reference Framework every EU Digital Identity Wallet is built to.
The worker's home-country authority, such as the Danish Agency for Digital Government, vouches for who they are.
The worker's verified ID, such as AltID, shares only what the site asks for.
Verifies the identity and issues the construction site ID card used at the gate.
Germany's wallet, d-you, launches on 2 January 2027 on the same EU standards as AltID. Partisia already has access to its sandbox, so the same solution can run on sites in Denmark and Germany as German workers get the wallet.
AltID
Who carries what
The law asks for an ID card from everyone who works on site, and a guest card and a guestbook entry from people who do no work there or stay only briefly, such as parcel deliveries. Inspectors on duty need neither.
A personal construction site ID card for their time on site, with check-in and time on site recorded.
VisitorPass: the guest checks in from their own phone, and the visit lands in the guestbook, in the same log.
Authorities carrying out an inspection need neither an ID card nor a guest card (§ 3, stk. 2).
