Automated Time and Attendance

Benefits of Automated Time and Attendance

Manual time and attendance processes need to be left in the past – especially if your organization is using a hybrid work model. Technology that automates processes can boost productivity for your HR team. For instance, solutions that consider labor needs and forecast the future make it simple for your team to build out employee schedules and monitor attendance. Modern technology also makes schedules available from a central location that every employee has access to – regardless of where they are working.

When it comes to processing timecards, your HR team doesn’t need to waste time collecting time sheets from a disbursed workforce. Plus, illegible handwriting or inaccurate data entry can lead to payroll mistakes that later need to be corrected. This is inefficient, hinders productivity and isn’t a good experience for anyone involved.

Advantages of Automated Time Tracking

• Real-Time Reports: you and your employees have all the information at your fingertips, so everyone is on the same page and making good decisions.
• Automated Data Collection: No entering data manually.
• Mobile Access: Check reports from anywhere, and timesheets can be submitted, reviewed, and approved, all from a mobile device.
• Simplify Payroll: Integrated payroll-ready time and attendance data means no manual input, and no mistakes.
• Eliminate Buddy Punching: Ensure that your employees are recording time and attendance in person. Biometric time and attendance can help you control time theft, buddy punching, and fraud.
• Reduce Unplanned Overtime: Intelligent clocks help your employees avoid early and late punches, and reduce clocking errors with prompts that eliminate wrong punches and the need to review time cards.
• Geofencing: Helps ensure that your employees are clocking in and out from where they should be. Geofencing restrictions assures you have a reliable record of employee time on the job.
• Employee Self-Service: Allows employees to access their current time and attendance records and PTO accruals, giving them the answers they need in a secure login environment, so you spend less time tracking down data for employee requests.
