Trucking and logistics operations run on drivers who are rarely in the same place, terminals, dock operations, and owner-operators. The briefings happen — the difficulty is proving they happened, to the specific workers who were exposed, on the day it mattered.
Briefings in this industry address load securement, backing and blind spots, dock plate and trailer creep, fatigue and hours of service, cargo handling, and weather-driven road conditions. A record that does not tie a specific worker to the specific talk covering the hazard that injured them is not much of a record.
FMCSA regulations including driver qualification files and hours of service, plus OSHA standards for dock and terminal operations such as powered industrial trucks under 1910.178(l). Several of these require documented training, which is where citations attach.
In trucking and logistics, drivers are almost never in the building. Safety meetings happen at terminals with rotating attendance, and the drivers who most need documentation are the ones hardest to gather.
Each check-in records the worker's photo, GPS coordinates, and a timestamped attendance record at the moment of scan — the difference between saying a worker was trained and showing who was standing there.
Workers scan the QR code the supervisor displays and check in from their own phone's browser. Nothing to install and no password to forget, which is why adoption does not stall on the least tech-interested member of the crew.
Every briefing exports as an audit-ready PDF formatted for OSHA 29 CFR 1910 and 1926, DOT/FMCSA, and the Canada Labour Code, with the attendance evidence attached rather than summarized.
FMCSA regulations including driver qualification files and hours of service, plus OSHA standards for dock and terminal operations such as powered industrial trucks under 1910.178(l). Documentation is usually requested during DOT compliance reviews and audits, CSA scoring, insurance reviews after a preventable accident, and litigation following a collision.
No. Workers scan a QR code and check in through their phone's browser — no app, no account, no password. A typical check-in takes about 90 seconds.
Plans start at $89 per month, with unlimited participants and check-ins on every plan. Operator and Place limits vary by plan, with no hardware required. Free 14-day trial with no credit card.
Yes. Every briefing across every location appears on one dashboard as it happens, so leadership can see which crews held their talk and who attended without making calls.

Arkvos separates product capabilities from regulatory requirements. For federal OSHA requirements, the primary authority is OSHA's current regulations and guidance. California construction employers should also review the applicable Cal/OSHA Title 8 requirements.
OSHA 29 CFR 1904.33 requires the OSHA 300 Log, annual summary, OSHA 301 Incident Report forms, and privacy case list if one exists to be retained for five years after the end of the calendar year they cover. Cal/OSHA Title 8 §1509(e) requires construction supervisors to conduct toolbox or tailgate safety meetings, or equivalent, with crews at least every 10 working days. Requirements vary by jurisdiction and work activity, so employers should verify the rule that applies to their facts.
