Time and Attendance Software

Time and attendance software is an automated and online approach to tracking and monitoring employee work hours. It automatically gathers employee clock in/out data and compiles those records into electronic timesheets, making everyone’s lives easier. Businesses use time and attendance solutions to record the number of hours their employees work, how much they owe in wages, where and when absenteeism happens the most, and so much more.

Tracking time and attendance is a core business function. It makes jobs easier, reduces errors, prevents breaches in labor compliance, and saves on managerial overhead. Accurately tracking time and attendance is also important for controlling labor costs, as it helps eliminate time theft, pinpoints areas of overspending, and reigns in absenteeism.

While there are many different ways to track hourly employee time and attendance, the more manual processes involving pen and paper and even spreadsheets often have high margins of error. Most businesses now choose to track their employee time and attendance in a couple of different ways. Using the Tablet Kiosk App, staff can clock in using an on-site tablet verified with pin codes, biometric face scanners, or photo IDs. In the Mobile Phone App, staff clock in using their mobile devices. These apps are typically GPS located and feature photo identification.

A solid integration between these two is essential. Dedicated time tracking software provides payroll solutions with more accurate data by verifying all hours with robust approval and editing functionality, meaning timesheets are error-free before hitting payroll. This helps businesses avoid retro pay and compliance issues following the payroll process.

The value of having a time tracking solution synced with scheduling happens every minute of every shift.
