App Update: Circle Is Now Available for Desktops
Fire departments have one responsibility that’s critical to their operation: accurate attendance tracking. But if your department still relies on outdated pen-and-paper sign-in sheets, you could be exposing your team to fraud, mismanagement, and legal headaches. It’s time to make a change before it’s too late.
The Hidden Dangers of Old-School Attendance Tracking

Traditional attendance logs may seem simple, but they come with major risks. Who’s verifying the entries? What’s stopping someone from claiming attendance they didn’t earn? When an audit comes around, what happens if your records don’t hold up?
Here’s what’s at stake when fire departments continue using manual sign-in sheets:
- Fraudulent Attendance Claims: Without verification, anyone could log in for a shift they didn’t work.
- LOSAP Mismanagement: Errors or intentional misallocations can lead to audits and financial penalties.
- Legal and Financial Trouble: Mismanagement of tax dollars can trigger investigations, lawsuits, and reputational damage.
How Does Your Department Currently Track Attendance?

Fraudulent attendance in emergency services is on the rise, and it’s clear that departments need stronger systems in place to protect themselves and maintain proper procedures.
Manual sign-ins may seem straightforward, but they’re easily overlooked—and when they fail, the consequences are costly. From fraud and audits to potential legal issues, the fallout can devastate your department’s resources and reputation. If your current attendance tracking system is falling short, it’s time to take action before the damage is done.
