Spend Less Time Managing Your Employees' Time

Time and labor management systems use real-time data to forecast your staffing needs, create employee schedules, and track hours worked to help you monitor labor costs and make informed decisions on your workforce.
‍

Time and Labor management systems help you track hours worked. Insights from the time and attendance software gives you a deeper understanding of your workforce, your biggest expense.

Custom reports can be generated with the data collected, helping you understand productivity so you can make business decisions to increase performance and reduce labor expenses.  

Timekeeping software tracks employee hours worked, time off, holiday time, and overtime to calculate hours worked during a pay period.

With timekeeping software, employee schedules can be pre-populated onto their time sheets. If your employee punches in using a kiosk, enters time using their portal, or punches in on a mobile device, the hours worked will be populated onto the timesheet. During the pay period, managers will receive alerts and notifications for any timesheet discrepancies so adjustments can be made to the timesheet before running payroll.

Integrating into your HR software any approved time-off requests will also automatically populate onto the timesheet, flowing into your payroll software to complete the employee wage calculations including proper deductions to determine the employee’s final pay.
‍

Using time and labor software is beneficial not only for your team and your employees. Here are a few ways time and labor software can support your organization:
‍

• Accurate calculations: Timesheet entries manually populate into the system and calculate hours worked. The time and labor software will also calculate any time-off request and time off based on company holiday schedule, all configurable to your business needs.
• Save time: Delegate the task of clocking employees in and out by giving them access to self-service software, employees can manage their own timekeeping. The manager can oversee timesheet entries and correct any miscalculations before the upcoming pay run. Timesheet entries and time off will automatically populate into the system, eliminating the need for spreadsheets or manually documenting hours worked.
• Compliance: If you have employees working over state lines, it can be difficult to keep track of these regulations when tracking time manually. Time and labor software can automatically adhere to the requirements set for that location.
• Cloud-based technology: Keep track of employee’s timesheets and work history in the cloud using a cloud-based time and labor software provider. Reduce the need for filing cabinets or manual entries into spreadsheets.

When shopping for a time and labor management system there are some key features to look for to help track time:

• Compliance: Stay compliant with overtime regulations, FLSA guidelines, and state and local regulations. Be prepared for audits by keeping all time and attendance information in the cloud.
• Timekeeping software: Your software should provide a variety of ways for your employees to clock in and out. Allow your employees to track their time using a kiosk and online portal. Giving employees the ability to track time using their mobile devices is a very important feature. This allows you to better support both remote and deskless workers. The manager dashboard gives managers the capability to review timesheets, check for discrepancies, and approve timesheets with ease.
  
  Alerts and notifications help managers to stay informed of timesheet discrepancies and allows them to correct errors before the pay run. Receiving notifications when employees approach overtime can help you stay in line with your payroll budget.
• Integration capabilities: Streamlining your payroll, HR, and time and attendance operations will allow information to flow freely. Save your team time and reduce the risk of error by allowing timesheet information to populate into your payroll software automatically.
