How to Choose the Right Time and Attendance Solution for Your Mechanical Workshop

Time and attendance systems allow the mechanical industry to operate efficiently and create productive, reliable and automated workforces, so you can better spend your time growing your business and servicing your customers.

The mechanical industry has its own set of unique requirements when it comes to a time and attendance solution. Your staff typically work in one location, so you’d just be looking for a single time clock in your workshop. Your staff typically do day shifts, usually the same shift with possible afternoon or night shifts, and you may have a shift supervisor who views and approves timesheets, or your payroll officer may look after this.
