• Attendance tracking: The software records employees' attendance times, including start, end, and break times, to accurately track work hours.
• Leave and absence management: The software supports the management of vacation requests, sick leave reports, and other employee absences, and allows tracking of vacation balances.
• Shift planning and management: The software enables the creation, management, and publishing of shift schedules, including assigning employees to specific shifts or work groups.
• Work hour regulations: The software considers legal work hour regulations, collective agreements, and company policies regarding working hours to ensure compliance with regulations.
• Reporting and analysis: The software provides reporting features to analyze work hour data, generate reports, and gain insights into work hour trends, overtime, or absences.
• Integration with payroll systems: The software seamlessly integrates with payroll systems to facilitate the calculation of wages and salaries based on recorded work hours.
• Compliance support: The software supports compliance with labor regulations, data privacy regulations, and other legal requirements related to time tracking.
