Checking Out at the End of a Shift

When you need to check out

• You’ll only see (or be required to use) check-out if the jobsite is set up that way by the GC.

• If you’re not sure whether you need to check out, ask your foreman or the GC’s site team.
  
  

How to check out (step-by-step)

If you can’t find the check-out button

This usually means one of these things:

• The job site doesn’t require check-out.

• You’re not checked in (for example, you checked in under a different jobsite).

• Your GC uses a different process (for example, host/kiosk check-out).

• Ask your foreman or site team what they want you to do.

If you forgot to check out

• Let your foreman or site team know.

• Follow their instructions. Depending on the job site setup, they may ask you to check out later or handle it on their side.

  
  
  

Why it matters (why GCs care)

Checking out helps the job site team:

• Keep an accurate list of who is still on site

• Run safer emergency roll calls

• Keep clean records for compliance and reporting

• Reduce paper sign-in sheet issues

Tips

• If your job site requires check-out, try to do it as part of your normal “leaving site” routine.

• If you move between multiple jobsites in a day, double-check you’re checking out of the right one.
