Let’s face it, you’re a small business owner and you need to start tracking your employees’ time more efficiently, but you are not sure where to start. Maybe you want a modern time clock system, but you still want something similar to the traditional punch clock where employees use a specific time clock to punch in and out. OnTheClock offers a variety of options for business owners to track their staff’s time and a time clock kiosk is one of them.
Group Punch is the modern-day time clock kiosk
A really cool feature called Group Punch was created by OnTheClock to help companies use a modern day-time punching system without going too far away from the traditional style when it comes to location.
Group Punch allows a specific computer, laptop, or tablet to be set for employees to clock in and out. This means that you can start your 30-day free trial and mount an Android or Apple tablet to the designated area in which you would like your employees to clock in and out. This allows employees to quickly and conveniently punch in at the beginning of the day by the use of a kiosk-like device.
Benefits of using a time clock kiosk
Employers will see many benefits when it comes to using our Group Punch kiosk option. If you are looking for something similar to a traditional time clock then chances are you do not want to use other robust features that OnTheClock offers. We try to cater to all small businesses when it comes to their time tracking needs so we designed this option. So what are some additional benefits that your company can experience from Group Punching?
Accurate time cards
The main goal when using any time clock is to have time card reports for each employee so you know how much to pay them. A modern time clock system will give you 100% accurate time cards to the exact minute to generate for payroll. This eliminates a lot of unnecessary time when it comes to calculating employees' hours worked. You would simply just pull up your timesheet reports and send them over to payroll - it’s as easy as that!
Know who is on the clock
When using OTC, you will be able to see who is currently working and who is not. You can pull up a report called Who’s In. This allows the Administrators and Managers on the account to get a visual of who has clocked in and who has not. This gives you peace of mind knowing that you do not have to stand by the time clock kiosk with a checklist of employees marking who is in or out. Ditch the stress and allow OnTheClock to do it for you!
Lockdown options for a specific device
By locking down a specified device for employees to punch in and out from allows employees to only use that device and that device only. You will not have to worry about them clocking in from their phones, from their homes, or from any other device that is not locked down to what you have set. This helps eliminate time theft and provides accurate time tracking which will ultimately reduce your payroll expenses. Who doesn’t like to save their company money?
Why you should try a modern way to track employees’ time
Aside from all the benefits listed above in this article, you and your business, along with your employees will all experience a much better way to punch the clock, track hours, reduce payroll, and allows everyone to be on the same page.
Employers are also able to put their time towards other parts of the business since an online time clock system helps save time. Data is stored via the cloud, so this eliminates the paper timesheets and manual calculations for employee time worked. Our system allows every business to try our time clock for 30 days before deciding if the investment is for them. You will still have all the available functions when you are in trial mode as you would being a paid customer. So you really don’t have any excuses not to try it out.
