Time tracking isn’t one-size-fits-all!
The way your employees clock in can directly impact accuracy, compliance, and day-to-day efficiency. From scheduled shifts in fixed locations to last-minute assignments in the field, the right method depends on your workforce’s reality. Modern WFM platforms make it possible to configure clock-in options to fit each scenario without adding complexity for managers or employees.
You have a lot of options, a lot of variability, and different parts of the organization can use different methods. The power is in your hands.
Mat Diab covers:
- The core clock-in methods: desktop, mobile, and kiosk/tablet devices
- When to use scheduled vs. open shifts for planned and unplanned work
- Emergency clock-ins for highly dynamic, on-call roles like relief pharmacists or field staff
- How geofencing, beacons, and facial recognition add accuracy and security
- Practical examples across industries: construction, retail, manufacturing, and more
The right mix of clock-in methods ensures time is captured accurately, employees are authenticated properly, and operations run smoothly across all locations. With a modern WFM platform, flexibility is built-in so each team can track time the way that works best.
