The benefits of automatic time tracking

Time tracking can help employees:

  • Identify where their time is being spent
  • Track their long-term progress
  • Take breaks and time off appropriately
  • Prioritize what’s most important
  • Focus better while working
  • Organize their workday

For businesses, benefits of time tracking include:

  • Transparency into work processes
  • Increased accountability in employees
  • Understanding of your billing and operational efficiency
  • Knowledge where resource demand is the highest
  • Tracking where the budget gets burned

In the US, filling timesheets wastes $7.4 billion a day in productivity - just from workers forgetting to log their hours

Manual

Simple note taking may work for small startups and businesses with few employees - where people arriving late will easily be noticed

Timesheets

Complete by either employees or supervisors, often using Excel or Google Sheets - inexpensive option but time-consuming for more than a handful of employees

Key-card

Employees sign in by punching or swiping a card or use a RFID tag or QR code - simple and efficient for one location but become complex with remote employees

Biometric data

Fingerprint and iris scanners, and face recognition - verifies identity and time and eliminates need to keep track of key card

GPS

May be used to track delivery employees, door-to-door sellers, and others - often raises privacy concerns for employees

Remote monitoring

keystrokes, activity, and web cam monitoring keep track of working hours for remote employees

Facial recognition allows seamless time tracking, without distracting employees from their tasks or adding to your workload
