Seat belt confirmation while Sign-out

1. Overview

The Seat-Belt Check on Sign-Out feature introduces an additional safety compliance step during employee deboarding. 

As part of the manual sign-out flow, the driver is required to confirm whether the employee was wearing a seat belt at the time of sign-out.

This confirmation occurs before employee verification, ensuring safety capture without interrupting operational processes.

This feature is optional and can be enabled or disabled using configuration properties.

2. Functional Behavior

2.1 Trigger Point

• The seat-belt confirmation prompt appears when the driver initiates employee sign-out.

• The prompt is shown before any employee verification step (PIN/OTP/Contactless/etc.).

• 2.2 User Flow (Driver App)

  1. Driver selects employee to sign out.

  2. Driver is shown a Seat Belt Status Confirmation popup.

  3. Driver records:

     • “Seat Belt Worn” or

     • “Seat Belt Not Worn”

  4. Only after the selection, the system proceeds to the standard employee sign-out verification flow.
