on site

At the location

On site means at the location in question, as opposed to elsewhere.

Work done on site happens at the actual place rather than remotely: The technician will need to come on site to fix it.

On-site (hyphenated) works as an adjective: on-site parking, on-site childcare.

The phrase contrasts with off site or remote.
