What is the best way to fill out “Log Books”?

 

  • Always use a bound note book so that torn pages can be easily discerned.
  • Every single day must be recorded, even if nothing has happened.
  • On a day without any incident, you must enter the date and one line saying "nothing happened."
  • On a day you do not work or the restaurant is closed, write this down in your log book.
  • Every incident must be entered with the time, date, place and the description of the incident.
  • The person involved must be clearly described in detail (name if available and appearance).
  • Every line in a page must be filled. If a line is left blank, it must be crossed out to make it impossible to add something on a later date.
  • If the police are called, make a note of what action is taken.
