Now keep it safe: three things
  1. Keep your photos and files unedited. The receipt only matches the originals. Put them in an album such as “My records”.
  2. Save this receipt to your camera roll.

    Keep the receipt file too. The image is a handy copy; checking needs the file.

  3. Email it to yourself.Email it to myself

    Your mail app opens a draft. Attach your receipt image and receipt file. Don’t attach your photos or documents. Timevolt does not send it or know whether it was sent.

      How to keep notes that hold up

      Write notes as soon as you can. Keep the original account rather than replacing it later; the venue decides what weight it gets.

      1. Write it down straight away, on paper or in the box on a step.
      2. Put the date, time and place at the top, and who you spoke to.
      3. Use their words where you can; separate what you saw from what you were told.
      4. Sign or initial a paper note, photograph it and add the photo.
      5. Never edit an old note. Add a new dated entry when something changes. A device save time is not independent time evidence or proof of event order.

      Proves / Doesn’t prove

      Proves

      A completed time receipt shows that the exact selected file existed by the independently witnessed time. You can check whether a later copy has the same bytes. It does not establish creation time, authorship, identity, event order, location or the truth of the contents.

      Doesn’t prove

      It does not prove who walked the site, that the person was a competent person, that the photos were taken at that spot, that the hazards were real or really fixed, or that a court or OSHA will accept it.

      This cannot establish a competent inspector, genuine hazards, completed repairs or a safe site.

      These are the bounds of a completed proof. The local tester does not establish any time. The chosen court, scheme or regulator decides what to accept.

      Does OSHA require me to keep a written daily safety inspection log?

      For most construction hazards the standards require the inspection but do not say you must write it down. Cranes are the main exception: monthly and annual inspections must be documented. A log is still your best way to show the inspection happened.

      Who counts as a competent person?

      OSHA defines one as someone who can identify existing and predictable hazards and has authority to take prompt corrective action. Being trained and designated matters; in one trench case, naming whoever was on site did not satisfy the rule.
