Time and attendance

Last updated

The time and attendance module records when people work and turns it into paid time. Workers clock in from their phone inside a geofence, punches become worked hours by shift, overtime is classified under UAE rules and paid only when authorised, and leave builds up as a ledger of entries.

How a typical month runs

Each morning workers clock in from their phone, and the punch is accepted only inside the site's geofence. The live attendance board shows who is on site. Punches are paired into worked time against each person's shift, and time beyond normal hours is classified as ordinary, night or rest-day overtime. Overtime counts for pay only inside an authorisation a manager approved, so unapproved extra hours never reach payroll by accident. Leave requests are approved in the same place, and each accrual and day taken is written to the leave ledger, so every balance can be traced to the entries behind it.

Rules it enforces

  • A worker cannot clock in twice without clocking out.
  • Overtime is paid only inside a manager-approved authorisation.
  • Leave balances are a sum of entries, never an overwritten number.

Where it connects

Read the labour law guide and use the overtime calculator and annual leave calculator. It shares its records with the other areas: projects and tenders, supply and logistics, site stores, quality and handover, interim payments, approvals, payroll and wps, finance and vat, banking and budgets, assets and documents. See the construction ERP overview or book a demo.
