Which type of report writing would be used to record a sign-in process?

• A. Sign-in sheet
• B. Daily activity
• C. Incident
• D. Lightning surveys

Answer: (A)

Recording who checks in is best served by a simple attendance log that captures arrival times and names. The sign-in sheet is designed exactly for this purpose, providing a chronological, verifiable record of who entered a location. It typically includes date, time, printed name, and signature, and may note the purpose or destination. This makes it easy to audit and hold people accountable for their presence. Other report types serve different needs: daily activity logs describe tasks performed rather than arrivals; incident reports document specific events and details of what happened; lightning surveys are quick site checks for conditions, not attendance records. So a sign-in sheet is the appropriate tool for recording a sign-in process.
