- What is employee time tracking software and how does it work?
- Employee time tracking software records when workers clock in and out, calculates hours worked, applies pay rules (overtime, rounding, shift differentials), and exports approved time to payroll. Employees punch via mobile app, web browser, physical time clock, or kiosk depending on the platform. The goal is to replace manual timesheets with verified, payroll-ready records that do not require re-entry. EasyClocking by WorkEasy Software, for example, supports biometric, mobile, facial, fingerprint, RFID, web, and kiosk clock-in methods across job sites, factory floors, and warehouses.
