The value of a safety record is its credibility under hostile examination. A record that could have been edited after the fact — a re-signed sheet, a revised cell — invites exactly that examination.
Each check-in is hashed at the moment it is recorded. Any later alteration to the record breaks the hash, which makes tampering detectable — the property that separates evidence from editable data.
No system can make records physically impossible to touch; what cryptography provides is certainty that touching them shows. That is what an opposing expert checks for, and what paper and spreadsheets can never offer.
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.
Every briefing exports as an audit-ready PDF formatted for OSHA 29 CFR 1910 and 1926, DOT/FMCSA, and the Canada Labour Code. When someone asks for documentation for a specific worker on a specific date, the answer takes seconds, not a search through storage boxes.
Cryptographic sealing at creation: the record is hashed (Arkvos uses SHA-256) so any subsequent change is detectable. Strictly, this is tamper-evidence — alteration is provable rather than impossible — which is what credibility under scrutiny requires.
Because the first attack on damaging documentation is that it was created or modified after the fact. A sealed record forecloses that argument; an editable one invites it.
One plan at $349 per month, unlimited workers. No per-site fees, no tiers, no hardware. The free 14-day trial requires no credit card, and the platform supports teams from 10 to 100,000 workers.
No. Workers scan a QR code and check in through the browser on their own phone. There is no app, no login, and no account to create.
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.
Arkvos offers a free OSHA citation response generator. Upload the citation and get a formal response letter, a corrective action plan with dates, and a checklist of evidence to attach. Employers have 15 working days from receipt of a citation to contest it. Open the free citation responder.
