Time & attendance

Manage compliance with wage and hour regulations

Complying with wage regulations and hour rules, such as overtime and meal breaks, is necessary to protect your business from penalties. But relying on managers alone for consistent enforcement and oversight is risky. Alternatively, you can use ADP time and attendance software to help meet compliance requirements and track the data and documents you'll need in case of an audit.

For our Workforce Now Essential Time clients, you can add on Compliance on Demand, which lets you consult ADP's team of experts or share best practices with peers in our online customer community. This service also has a content library full of information on wage and hour compliance at the federal, state and local levels.

Time tracking helps control labor costs

Tracking and monitoring time is an important part of managing your labor costs. And, as you grow, this can become more challenging. With ADP, managing and improving your time and attendance process just got easier.

With employee time tracking and payroll reporting from ADP, you can see when people are approaching overtime and visualize the true costs of labor - including temporary staff - and adjust hours as necessary. Our time and attendance software also prevents employees from clocking in and out on behalf of others - also known as "buddy punching." An ID badge, PIN number or biometric finger scan is required for verification and geo-fencing ensures that those who are using a mobile clocking app are within a certain distance of a physical work location.

Manage employee scheduling efficiently

ADP time and attendance solutions make it easier and faster to create schedules that work for everyone. You can spot trends and correct gaps in coverage before they negatively impact your environment and employees have access to self-service features for improved productivity and engagement.

Workforce Now Essential Time clients also have the option to upgrade to Advanced Scheduling features:

• Collaborative scheduling permits employees to swap shifts with other coworkers, respond to manager requests or provide their availability in advance – all from a mobile device.
• Configurable work rules, such as maximum daily hours and maximum consecutive days, help simplify compliance with work policies.
• Real-time cost calculations allow you to see how your budget is affected by schedules as you create them.
• Skill-based scheduling helps you match people to the job based on required skills, licenses, certifications, languages and training.

Online timekeeping increases productivity

When you use ADP's time and attendance solutions, staff enter their hours worked using a smart time clock, a web timesheet or a clocking app available on a mobile device. The system then automatically calculates the totals and sends them to payroll, leaving you and your managers with just exception and approval tasks. As a result, you have more time to spend improving business operations and supporting customers.

Time tracking software improves payroll accuracy

Don't leave the accuracy and reliability of your company payroll to chance. ADP's complete "punch-to-paycheck" experience delivers fast, easy time tracking, scheduling and attendance management. Using it, you can instantly calculate hourly totals based on your payroll policies, including overtime, and avoid costly mistakes.

Employee time tracking with flexibility

Flexible access to information helps remove obstacles, creates a seamless experience and improves the overall engagement of your workforce. Designed with self-service options, ADP's time and attendance solutions works with smart time clocks, web browsers and mobile devices. This allows authorized employees and supervisors to complete time-sensitive tasks quickly, easily and in a way that works best for them.
