Time and Attendance Solutions for Remote Workers

• Offering a wide range of benefits to all manner
  of businesses, remote working isnt just good for
  employees, but it does give managers a good deal
  of challenges, especially when it comes to time
  and attendance.
• Its all well and good to have your workforce
  doing their job from home, but how can you check
  that theyre putting in the hours, and actually
  fulfilling their role in the same way that they
  would if they were in the office? With your
  employees on site, checking that theyre arriving
  on time and not leaving early, is easy, as well
  as checking productivity and monitoring their
  activities during working time, but its a
  different matter when you cant see your staff.

• Fortunately, such is the speed of technological
  advancements nowadays, remote working has become
  easier to monitor, and managers have a number of
  ways to check on the time and attendance of their
  employees, as seen below
• Tracking employee time commitments remotely
• For many companies, their employees are required
  to work within a certain time frame or at set
  hours of the day, and a tracking system can help
  in these cases. While important for productivity,
  time tracking can also help Payroll departments
  make sure that employees are paid accurately for
  their time.

• Choose from time tracking software, in which
  remote workers enter their start and finish
  times, or a cloud timesheet for recording hours
  and real-time data, enabling managers to approve
  the hours. For wider project management systems,
  time trackers can help keep everything on
  schedule.
• Alternatively, a much simpler solution is to
  outsource your remote working time tracking to a
  payroll provider, who can take care of all of the
  above on your behalf.

• Time and attendance on the move
• Mobile applications for all manner of systems are
  becoming increasingly popular and are undeniably
  helpful. A mobile time and attendance system can
  be especially beneficial for managing employees
  who work on the road, due to its convenience, and
  its software can come with a clock in and out
  feature, enabling employees to manage holiday
  requests from their mobile devices.
• GPS tracking for remote workers on the road
• If workers spend a lot of time travelling to
  meetings or are frequently on the road, GPS
  tracking can help managers know exactly where
  their employees are, which means that they can be
  assigned jobs according to their location, and
  have confidence that theyre where theyre
  supposed to be!

• As with any aspect of managing a workforce,
  whether remote or in-house, having specialized
  outsourced agencies help can save managers both
  time and money, and with a team of professionals
  rather than one single, full-time in-house
  employee, you get access to a wealth of expertise
  and new technology for getting the work done in
  half the time.
