Work Permit Solution – Estonian Tax and Customs Board

Estonia approved a law, stating that all construction sites must use controlled access and registration systems to battle against envelope paid labor for tax evasion. For this a unified Personal Work permit was needed for workers in the construction sector – every worker, be it concrete, cleaning, construction, access control must have a Tax Agency issued work permit issued which is used in construction access control and registration systems.  

 Challenge: 

  • New secure permit ordering and handover process 
  • GDPR compliancy 
  • Complex x-road requirements 

Outcome: 

  • New software application to order work permits  
  • Secure way for authorized personnel to order permits 
  • Data integration to Tax and Customs information systems 

Hansab Group provides a service to the Tax and Customs Board to issue cards i.e work permits to construction workers. The document ordering works through a newly developed software application through https://helk.hansab.ee/ website which is accessibly by appointed personnel. Hansab IT Solutions developed the ordering portal, backend information system and data integration via x-road for Hansab Group to be able to provide the necessary service securely and efficiently. To further simply goods handover, the permits can be ordered to a Cleveron parcel kiosk which was integrated to the service. 

 Card service is integrated with: 

  • Tax and Customs information systems via x-road 
  • Payment and billing solutions 
  • Smart (e-ID, mobile-ID or Smart ID) authentication 
  • Cleveron parcel kiosk
