06Frequently asked questions

Will staff resent it?

Explain the purpose and apply the rule fairly. Most staff prefer a fair record to favouritism.

Can we allow grace minutes?

Yes. Grace periods are set in the software.

Can staff cheat it?

A fingerprint or face belongs to one person, so nobody can clock in for a friend the way they can on paper.

Can it feed payroll?

Yes. Reports export hours, lateness and overtime for your payroll team.
