Manufacturing
Manufacturing payroll is uniquely complex: shift differentials, union rules, 200 people through the door in ten minutes, and multiple facilities to reconcile. EasyClocking handles all of it with biometric clocks that read through oil, dust, and calloused hands, and software that applies the right rate before payroll ever sees it. Up to 99.9% accuracy (manufacturer specifications).
Trusted by 10,000+ teams in America's toughest industries
Every punch tied to a person
Biometric clocks verify the punch at the clock, not a PIN or badge that can be handed off at shift change. Customers report up to a 90% reduction in punch errors.
20+ payroll integrations
One-click sync to ADP, QuickBooks, Workday, and more. We sit upstream of payroll, so you keep the payroll system you already run. No re-entry, no transposed digits.
Shift differentials handled
Automatic pay rate adjustments for day, evening, overnight, and weekend shifts.
Rugged industrial hardware
Proven in dusty, wet, oily, and extreme-temperature factory conditions.
Days, not months
Simple wall mounting, PoE or WiFi connectivity. Most facilities are live within days.
The Challenge
Day, evening, overnight, weekend: each shift carries a different rate. Tracking that by hand across two or three shifts with union and non-union crews produces errors every cycle, and every error is either an overpayment you eat or a correction you run next period.
How EasyClocking Solves It
EasyClocking applies the correct rate by shift, department, and union agreement automatically. The 700 and 500 handle high-volume shift changes without a line at the clock. Workers punch in and the system does the math.
The Challenge
FLSA rules, state labor laws, union agreements, and production deadlines collide. Without running hours in front of you, overtime accumulates all week and shows up as a number on the payroll register instead of a decision you made.
How EasyClocking Solves It
Real-time overtime alerts notify managers before thresholds are crossed. EasyClocking calculates overtime based on FLSA, state laws, and your union rules simultaneously. No spreadsheet juggling.
The Challenge
Production orders drive labor demand. When the schedule changes, labor has to follow, but a whiteboard and a phone list cannot keep up. Lines start short, people get held over, and nobody sees the cost until the job cost report.
How EasyClocking Solves It
Built-in scheduling with auto-assign and swap management lets you reallocate workers as production demands shift. Job costing by department, work order, and production line gives you real-time labor visibility.
Every feature designed for plant managers, payroll teams, and HR directors managing shift-based, multi-facility manufacturing operations.

EasyClocking biometric time clocks use multispectral fingerprint sensors that read below the surface of the skin, so dust, oil, grease, and moisture don't affect accuracy. They're rated for industrial environments and consistently deliver up to 99.9% read rates on factory floors (based on manufacturer specifications).
Yes. EasyClocking offers one-click export to ADP, QuickBooks, Workday, Paylocity, BambooHR, and 20+ other payroll systems. Time data flows directly into your payroll without manual re-entry or file reformatting.
EasyClocking supports unlimited shift configurations with automatic pay rate adjustments for differentials. Workers can clock in at any terminal, and the system assigns the correct shift, department, and rate based on their schedule and job assignment.
Many manufacturers see payback within the first few months. Inaccurate and inflated time costs the average company 2-5% of gross payroll, and manual timesheet errors can add up to $2,300 per employee annually. Biometric clocks tie every punch to the real person, so the hours you pay for are the hours that were worked.
EasyClocking is designed with biometric privacy in mind: fingerprint templates are encrypted and stored securely, raw fingerprint images are never retained, and consent capture and retention workflows are configurable. Whether your specific deployment satisfies state statutes like BIPA (Illinois) or CUBI (Texas) depends on your jurisdiction, consent practices, and retention policies. Consult qualified legal counsel for compliance evaluation.
Most manufacturing facilities are fully operational within days, not months. EasyClocking provides guided onboarding, and the hardware is designed for simple wall mounting with PoE or WiFi connectivity. No complex IT infrastructure required.
EasyClocking is part of the WorkEasy Software family of time tracking tools.
