What the law actually says
- •A site diary isn't required by statute, but a dated daily record of crew, weather, deliveries, and delays is often the deciding evidence in a delay claim or payment dispute.
- •OSHA separately requires you to record work-related injuries and illnesses (29 CFR 1904), and a consistent daily log supports that.
