Toolbox talk attendance tracking

Attendance tracking is only worth doing if the result can be trusted. A count of names proves someone counted; a verified check-in proves a specific person stood at a specific talk.

Per worker, not per meeting

Inspections and claims ask about individuals: did this worker receive this training before this incident. A meeting-level tally cannot answer that. Individual verified check-ins can.

Attendance you can prove

A signature proves somebody wrote a name. An Arkvos check-in records the worker's photo, GPS coordinates, and a SHA-256 timestamp at the moment of scan, tied to that specific talk.

Every crew visible live

Talks across every branch appear on one dashboard as they happen, with attendance counts rising as workers scan. Crews that have not started are visible by absence.

No app, no account, about 90 seconds

Workers scan the QR code the supervisor displays and check in from their own phone's browser. Nothing to install, no password to forget, and the record is complete when the last worker scans.

One-click audit export

Every talk 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.

Frequently asked questions

How do you track attendance at a toolbox talk?

The reliable method is a per-worker verified check-in: each worker scans the talk's QR code and the system records their photo, GPS location, and a sealed timestamp. Paper sheets and typed rosters record a mark that anyone could have made.

Can supervisors add a worker who forgot their phone?

Yes. Supervisors can record attendance manually for exceptions, so nobody is excluded, while every other check-in remains individually verified.

How do I document toolbox talk attendance?

Document what was covered, who attended, when, and where. Arkvos records the talk content and each worker's verified check-in — photo, GPS, sealed timestamp — so the documentation is created during the talk rather than reconstructed afterward.

How much does Arkvos cost?

$349 per month, unlimited workers. No per-site fees, no tiers, no hardware. Free 14-day trial, no credit card, for teams from 10 to 100,000 workers.
