Location is the third leg of attendance evidence. A record without place cannot answer whether the safety briefing happened at the jobsite where the work — and the hazard — actually was.
Each check-in records the GPS coordinates of the worker's phone at the moment of scan. Combined with the photo and sealed timestamp, the record answers who, when, and where in a single act.
Inspections and litigation turn on site-specific training: was this crew briefed on this site's hazards? Coordinates placing the crew at the site during the briefing are direct evidence; a sheet signed 'somewhere, sometime' is not.
A signature proves somebody wrote a name. An Arkvos check-in records a photo of the worker, GPS coordinates, and a SHA-256 timestamp, sealed at the moment of scan. That is the difference between saying a worker was trained and showing who was standing at the briefing.
Workers scan the QR code the supervisor displays and check in from their own phone's browser — no app, no account, no password. A typical check-in takes about 90 seconds, and the record is complete the moment the last worker scans.
Modern phones typically resolve within a few meters outdoors — more than enough to place a worker at a jobsite. The coordinates are recorded as captured, alongside the photo and sealed timestamp.
No. Location is captured once, at the moment of check-in, as part of the attendance record. Arkvos is briefing verification, not workforce surveillance.

Attendance records are retained and remain exportable for as long as your organization needs them. OSHA retention requirements vary by standard — some training records must be kept for the duration of employment — so records that cannot be lost or discarded are safer than any paper retention policy.
