Stay on top of employee time keeping with Workforce

A good time keeping solution will help businesses calculate how much hourly workers should be paid, overtime payments (if applicable) as well as complying with the EU Working Time Regulations where applicable. 

Some of the main benefits to hospitality business are: 

Precise information for accounting and payment purposes 

Exact time keeping is essential in sectors where hourly pay is common and where overtime may sometimes be necessary 

Transparency and traceability 

An easy-to-use time and attendance app like Workforce by MAPAL, and an employee app such as MAPAL One, ensure that both managers and their teams have access and visibility to the same information. This avoids friction and makes it much easier to resolve employee questions and issues. 

Easy reporting and metrics 

Managers are able to extract quick reports to help understand how many hours were required to perform certain tasks, or to generate a given amount of revenue. This is a great help in calculating productivity and for improving future shift planning activities. 

Improved punctuality and discipline 

Mobile-friendly time tracking software promotes punctuality and boosts morale, as employees are given responsibility over their own timekeeping, enhancing feelings of empowerment and autonomy. 

Helps spot those who overwork 

Some employees are so committed that they regularly work more than is required of them. But this can lead to burn out, which in turn can lead to health issues, absence and, at worst, high turnover. Time tracking apps help you control this and maintain your team’s work-life balance. 

When combined with smart workforce management and shift planning software, a time and attendance system can boost efficiency and help you better manage your team. Read our guide to efficient team management for deeper insights, advice and tips.
