Portable Toilet & Handwash Station Logger
Event/jobsite sanitation checks — unit condition, service currency, anchoring, placement, handwash supplies and ratios; offline + GPS.
New sanitation unit inspection
Jobsites: weekly service minimum per typical practice (more by headcount); events: per-day or per-session checks; after storms immediately.
Field guide: Portable Toilet & Handwash Station Logger
Portable sanitation is regulated hygiene wearing a punchline — OSHA ties unit counts to headcount on jobsites, health departments tie event permits to ratios and handwash provision, and the failure modes are absolutely findable on a walk: the tank at capacity by Wednesday on a Friday service cycle, the unit un-staked in a wind zone (tipped units are the industry's signature catastrophe), and the handwash station with everything but water. This logger checks unit, placement, and the cluster-level math.
Handwash earns its own panel because it's where compliance actually fails: soap-and-water is required where food is handled and on most jobsites (sanitizer supplements, not replaces), and an empty water tank converts the whole cluster to non-compliant. The ADA findings reflect event reality — the accessible unit exists, parked behind the generator, full of someone's cones. Service-sticker dates versus tank reality keep the vendor honest; GPS pins keep the site map true.
Field tips
- Check tanks midweek, not service day — the question is whether capacity survives the cycle, and Wednesday answers it.
- Stake or ballast every unit you'd be sorry to find horizontal; wind finds the unstaked one with someone inside exactly once.
- Smell-test from two meters at the door: a properly serviced unit doesn't announce itself — odor IS the service-overdue finding.

Frequently asked questions
What unit-to-worker ratios does OSHA expect?+
The construction sanitation rule scales: 1 facility for ≤20 workers; for larger crews, 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 (the general-industry table runs similar). Events use different math (attendance, duration, alcohol service — many permits use 1 per 50–100 attendees per event-hours tables). Under-provisioning shows as queues; the log makes it a count.
Why is staking/ballast such a flagged item?+
Empty units are tall, light boxes — a 60 km/h gust tips them, occupied or not, and 'tipped with occupant' is both the industry's most infamous injury mode and a guaranteed claim. Wind-zone placements (open fields, coastal, between buildings that funnel) need stakes or ballast as delivered configuration, verified at every check.
Is hand sanitizer enough, or is soap and water required?+
Where food is handled (events, food-truck clusters) and on most construction sites, regulators expect soap-and-water handwash; sanitizer is the supplement or last resort. The practical audit: water present, soap present, towels present — three findings this log captures per cluster, because each empties independently.
What does the service sticker actually prove?+
The vendor's claimed pump-out/clean dates per unit. Reconciling sticker vs tank level vs odor catches both under-servicing (sticker current, tank full — capacity mis-planned) and route fraud (sticker signed, unit untouched). Dated field checks per unit ID are how disputes with sanitation vendors get resolved in your favor.
