Time and attendance software modernises the way hours are tracked and how working patterns are distributed. Plus, it keeps communication visible to employees, here are some of the other benefits: 

Reduces admin – remove the HR admin that comes with creating and issuing rotas and reporting on employee time tracking.  

Audit trail – storing time data in the cloud means there’s a complete audit trail of employee working records and timesheets. 

Reporting – spot reoccurring themes in absence and tardiness and address them accordingly.  

Reduces time theft – ensure employees are only paid for the hours they work. 

Ensures accurate pay – pay people accurately for the hours they work. 

Aid employee wellbeing – ensure employees take regular breaks and don’t work continuous overtime.  

Your need for time and attendance software will depend on the makeup of your business, your industry and your internal policies. Here are some considerations: 
 
Shift workers – creating and distributing shifts without T&A software can require huge amounts of admin. If you have multiple shift workers, features like rota-creating and shift swapping can be highly beneficial. 

Regulated industry – some industries require employees to take regular breaks, and these breaks need to be recorded for health and safety reasons. T&A software can be particularly beneficial in these
instances. 

Issues with absenteeism – issues with absenteeism are frequently only apparent once you have accurate reporting. T&A systems can help you report and spot trends.  

Issues with time theft – time theft can cost businesses. Businesses where time theft is an issue can often benefit from modern T&A systems.  

We recommend you have cloud-based software implemented to ensure you can manage employee time and absence properly. Here are a few things you’ll want to consider as part of your processes: 
 
Policy – ensure you have a tight absence and time policy. This might cover paid/unpaid absence, clock-in policy, how to notify the business of sickness and shift patterns. 

Authorisation – you’ll need to be clear internally and with the HR department who plays a role in authorising time off and rotas. 

Review – continually review your absence policy to ensure it’s up to date and compliant. 

Reporting – ensure you have accurate reporting set up so you can monitor key metrics.
