FAQs

What is an attendance tracking system?

An attendance tracking system enables you to track and manage your team’s attendance. It removes the effort and inaccuracies involved with tracking attendance manually. An effective attendance tracking system will allow you to capture time and attendance automatically and manually to ensure a time is accounted for.

What are the benefits of attendance tracking system?

An attendance tracking system dramatically reduces the time and effort involved with tracking your team’s time. It also makes it easier for managers to see when employees come and go from work, break time and ensure the scheduled number of hours are worked in a shift. 

What labor laws govern time and attendance tracking?

Time tracking compliance means accurately recording employee hours, breaks, overtime, and pay periods in line with applicable labor laws. Requirements vary by country and state, but the core principle is consistent: employers must maintain complete, verifiable records for a defined retention period or face penalties.

How long does it take to deploy time and attendance software?

The best time and attendance software is up and running within hours to a few days. Employees typically need minimal training to start clocking in. Larger enterprise rollouts involving payroll integrations, biometric hardware, or multi-site configuration generally take two to four weeks.

Is it legal to use biometric time clocks?

It depends on where you operate. In the US, Illinois has the strictest rules under BIPA, requiring written notice, explicit signed consent, data security measures, and a documented retention and deletion policy — before collecting any fingerprint or facial data. Colorado, Texas, and Washington have similar requirements. Under GDPR, European employers must establish a legitimate interest to process biometric data.

How does time and attendance software connect to payroll?

Most platforms either integrate directly via API with major payroll providers, syncing hours, overtime, and leave data automatically. Some allow timesheet exports in CSV or XLSX format for manual upload. Direct integrations eliminate re-entry errors and dramatically speed up payroll processing.
