Electronic Timekeeping Management

Aug 8, 2018 | Payroll

Small to large companies have seen the benefit of automating common payroll and HR functions like onboarding and benefits enrollment. However, one of the most important workforce-related functions – timekeeping management – is still done manually by many businesses. Performing these tasks manually takes time and often results in mistakes – which can have a negative impact on the bottom line.

According to data from the American Payroll Association, manual pay calculations and processing errors can cost companies between 1% and 8% of their total payroll. Additionally, time-theft, or clocking in/out before an employee is actually scheduled, can cost companies money. According to IRS statistics, this overpayment can be as much as 10 minutes per day per employee.
