Keep Track of Your Employees Via Telephone

What is more of a headache each month than dealing with employee time cards?  It is so easy to miscalculate or worry with dishonest employees, that working with time cards becomes tedious and extremely stressful.  Traditional time cards such as punch cards can be hard to read and easily manipulated.  Computer time programs can accidentally get miscalculated with the wrong time zone.  Usually, with traditional systems, employers have to wait until the end of the month to view and monitor their employees’ time.  What if there was a simple way for employees to clock in?  What if there was a time system that employers could access online twenty four-hours a day whenever they chose to look?  What if employers had a system that could not be tampered with by untrustworthy employees? There is such a system out there.  It is simple. It is accurate.  And it involves that everyday device, the telephone.

 

     Telephone time card systems are easy ways to keep track of employee time in an efficient and quick manner.  These telephone systems work in a basic method.  When an employee arrives for work, they dial a certain number to clock in and the time is recorded.  When they get ready to leave for the day, they again dial a number to clock out.  There is no figuring involved.  There is no complicated set of keys to press or time zones and such to confuse the issue.  It is as simple as dialing a number.

      Then, whenever an employer chooses, they can view any or all of their employees’ time up to the minute in their internet browser.  This is an excellent way to keep up with employees during the week.  It will help determine who is getting to work early or late on a day to day basis instead of having to wait for a monthly report.  And, the system virtually eliminates discrepancies and problems with dishonest employees.

      Telephone time clocks are an excellent choice for employers who are not on site.  Without physically being available to monitor time or to collect time sheets, issues with employees may go unnoticed for a month at a time, making it harder to address the problem.  With the telephone time system, employers have instant access to time sheets, making addressing employee issues quick and efficient without wasting weeks.

      There are many brands and styles of telephone time cards available on the market.  A little research will lead one to the perfect model for their business.
