What it is

The DOB is the single most important record on any site. It is the first thing a client, an auditor, or an investigator asks for. A DOB that's half-filled, illegible or missing entries tells everyone exactly how the site is being run.

This template gives you a disciplined, repeatable structure: timed entries, clear handover points, and dedicated space for the routine and the exceptional. It keeps the record consistent no matter who is on shift.

What's included

  • Timed, sequential entry format for the full shift
  • Officer name, SIA licence and signature columns
  • Shift start / end and handover markers
  • Patrol, visitor, delivery and incident entry prompts
  • Continuation pages with repeating column headers
  • ACS audit-friendly layout
  • Print-ready A4 and editable Word format

Who it's for

Static guarding sites, gatehouses and control rooms that need a defensible, day-to-day record of activity.
