In our previous post, we talked about the importance of eliminating manual processes and providing a connected employee journey when considering a new time and attendance solution. Here are a few more questions to think about:
Is data accuracy improved?
Traditional time tracking methods often involve writing down hours worked or punching at a centrally located timeclock, but these don’t support a hybrid working environment. Other issues associated with these tracking methods include buddy punching and inaccurate data submission.
A modern time and attendance solution ensures that hours are tracked digitally through a system that integrates with other HR functions. Accuracy is improved when all the information comes from a single source because duplicate data entry is eliminated and attendance rules can be easily defined. If needed, an employer can even set up physical boundaries that employees must be in to clock in or out.
Are self-service tools available to employees?
Equipping your employees with the tools they need to track their hours worked independently can improve the employee experience and establish trust. Self-service tools are essential in allowing this to happen, so the time and attendance solution you choose should allow an employee to manage their own time.
The right set of self-service tools can also streamline other HR tasks, including requesting time off, checking PTO balances, and requesting schedule changes. The result? Freeing up valuable time for HR staff to focus on strategic initiatives while empowering employees to manage these tasks on their own.
Whether your company is moving to a hybrid work model or wants to plan ahead for any future disruptions, having a solution in place that supports today’s workforce and streamlines processes is essential.
