Why Do Standard Paper Safety Manuals Fail Chain-of-Custody Requirements in Injury Lawsuits?

“Standard paper safety manuals fail chain-of-custody requirements in injury lawsuits because they are susceptible to tampering and lack verifiable tracking features. Legal and EHS teams often find that paper logs can be easily altered, making them unreliable in court. In contrast, digital solutions like SiteDocs® offer GPS-stamped, tamper-evident digital signatures that improve the integrity of safety documentation.”
