Why would you need a visitor sign-in sheet? Keeping track of your visitors can help improve safety and protect on-site confidential information. Do you know who is visiting your building right now? Do you know where they are? If you can’t answer those questions, it might be time to implement a visitor management system.
An inexpensive visitor management solution is to use a printable sign-in sheet. The paper and pencil style of monitoring who is in the building has been used for years. It’s a practical solution for tracking vendors, contractors, customers, and intra-departmental movement among your staff. A simple sign-in sheet is perfect for many smaller businesses, colleges, clubs, or any other facility where having an app, or another digital method of screening visitors, is not necessary or prudent.
This template contains five unique variations of a visitor log. They can each be customized to meet the specific needs of your company.
The worksheets are all designed to fit on standard US letter sized paper. Some are in portrait mode and others are oriented in landscape.
