As the world becomes increasingly digital and remote work becomes the norm, managing employee time and attendance can be a significant challenge, especially for companies with a lot of remote employees working on job sites. However, with the power of geofencing, this challenge can be turned into an opportunity to increase efficiency and productivity, as well as reduce costs and errors.

Geofencing is a technology that uses GPS or other location-based data to create virtual boundaries around specific areas or job sites. This allows companies to track the location and movements of their employees in real-time, making it easier to manage time and attendance, as well as ensure compliance with labor laws and regulations.

One product that makes it easy for companies to implement geofencing technology is Total Payroll Management’s Essentials Webclock from FirstStarHR. This web-based time and attendance system is designed specifically for companies with remote employees working on job sites, allowing them to track employee time and attendance from anywhere, at any time.

How Essentials Webclock Works

• Uses GPS geofencing technology to track employee movements and time on the job site
• Employees can clock in and out using a mobile device
• Their location is automatically recorded and tracked in real-time

One of the key benefits of the Essentials Webclock is that it saves time and reduces errors.

But the benefits don’t stop there. Essentials Webclock also helps companies stay compliant with labor laws and regulations. By tracking employee time and attendance in real-time, managers can ensure that employees are receiving the proper pay and benefits, and that the company is meeting its obligations under labor laws.
