The enhanced Sojitz Blue Contractor & Supplier Pre-Qualification Program has been introduced in two stages:
- From 27 February 2025: Company Registration in Connect
- From 2 April 2025: Worker Registration in Pegasus Workforce
We suggest you read through the instructions before you get started and allow yourself time to source and upload the information needed. A nominated administrator from your business will be required to complete the steps below for each worker who needs site access.
User guides with screenshots can be found on the Help and Resources page.

Step 6 > Manual Audit/SMS Review (if required)
Depending on the work your organisation performs (as identified in Step 3), you may be required to complete a SMS review (Manual Audit), which is an independent desktop audit of your Work Health and Safety documents by a qualified WHS professional. The documents you’ll be asked to provide may include, but are not limited to:
- WHS Policy

You must complete all prequalification requirements for Sojitz Blue before your company will be considered compliant.
Step 2: WORKER REGISTRATION (CLICK TO EXPAND) +
Step 1 > Log in to manage workers
From the Connect system, select the Workers tile in the left-hand menu, then select Pegasus Workforce.
If you don’t immediately see the Sojitz Blue tile, click on the Add or Remove Portals and select the Sojitz
Blue Australia tile.
If you have not yet registered your business, please refer to the Supplier Information Page and follow the
steps under Business Registration – Click here to do so
Step 2 > Add your workers
Once logged in, start by selecting Manage Roles and then Add New Employee. From here, enter and save their personal contact details, address, phone and email.
Upload a profile picture for your worker, being sure to follow the standard passport style photo requirements (i.e. good lighting, no hats, no sunglasses, etc).
Note: If your worker already exists, you can click on their profile in the list of existing workers instead.
Step 3 > Pay for subscription
You must pay for your worker’s registration and training to work for Sojitz.
Worker registration costs $80+ GST per worker annually for the management of roles, verification of
documents, and maintenance of competencies.
Step 4 > Select role
Select Work Roles > Add Site and choose the Sojitz site/s your worker will access. This selection will filter the roles you can choose for that worker.
You will see that there will be a site role automatically assigned based on the site selections you have made.
Step 5 > Upload Documents
Your role selections will determine the competency documents (e.g. standard 11, medical etc) you’ll upload in the system to prove your worker’s qualifications to attend site.
For Crinum Only - you will need to provide a signed Contractor Authority to Undertake Induction form. This needs to be signed by site prior to uploading in the roles portal. You can find the form here - https://kb.pegasus.net.au/wiki/spaces/PMIBR/pages/2929853337/Mining+Business+Rules+Sojitz+Blue+Individual+Business+Rules+Inductions
Step 6 > Book Inductions
Once all documents have been processed, you will need to book online inductions which are required to
access site. You can do this by contacting your appropriate site training department using the details below.
• Crinum – crinumtraining@sojitzblue.com.au
• Gregory – SGMTraining@sojitzblue.com.au
• MDS / Minerva – mdstraining@sojitzblue.com.au
Step 7 > Attend the On-Site Induction
The worker must attend a Sojitz site induction/Famil. This will cover what is required for site compliance and training requirements for the worker’s role. The worker is not compliant to attend site until all site
requirements have been met.
Step 8 > Issuance of Digital Card
Once the worker has been approved (this may take up to 24 hours), you can invite your worker to join the
Workforce Mobile Application (this may take up to 24 hours after verification). The Workforce Mobile
Application will contain their Digital Card.
To invite your worker, select Manage Employees, select the workers profile and then select Invite to Workforce Mobile App.
The invitation will be sent via SMS from Avetta (+61 481 607 840) to the phone number recorded against the worker’s profile. If the phone number is a landline, the invitation will be sent to the worker’s email.
