Small retailers now use cloud-based time and attendance for their labor management needs.
PayClock Online has made my job much easier, and it saves the company money.
Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) January 09, 2015
Countryside Glass & Mirror of Dunedin, Fla., a family-owned custom glass and mirror business since 1957, now effectively manages time and attendance for its 85-employee workforce with Lathem’s PayClock® Online cloud-based time and attendance system. The company cites significant time savings and greater efficiency when processing payroll as the solution’s most important benefit.
Main office employees record their work hours with Lathem’s PC600 Touch Screen time clock, using proximity badges to clock in and clock out. Their time entries are integrated real-time into the cloud-based PayClock Online software. Employees at the company’s fabrication shop utilize an existing PC computer to punch in and out. A field-based installation team uses their own smartphones to clock in and out, and PayClock Online’s mobile functionality combined with GPS tracking ensures they are recording their time from the correct work site. Now altogether the 85 employees’ recorded hours are immediately available for management through PayClock Online.
“It’s all seamless,” said Kathy Hannas, office HR manager. “PayClock Online has made my job much easier, and it saves the company money. Our installation team can clock in from the job site, instead of coming to the office and waiting for a job order and truck. That used to waste from one to three hours of time each morning.”
In addition to employee time and attendance administration, Hannas manages all accounting and other HR-related work for the business. Before PayClock Online, Hannas used to manually calculate time and attendance records with paper time cards, but it was challenging managing the field-based workers. These employee time records would often be incomplete and Hannas had to contact field employees every Thursday when it was time to process payroll. With PayClock Online, Hannas can see all time entries immediately, and if an employee forgets to clock out, the system won’t let them clock back in the next day. Employees call Hannas immediately to fix these errors, and consequently payroll day isn’t filled with missing time entries and erroneous records.
“PayClock Online is much easier, but also much more efficient for the company,” Hannas said. “We’ve been using PayClock Online for about a year now, and it works out great.”
