Using Time and Attendance Systems to Combat Attendance Issues

Persistent lateness, longer than sanctioned break periods and early leaving could realistically be costing your company thousands of pounds a year.

For example, if a company employs 50 people, each being paid £15,000 per year, and each employee is five minutes late for work each day then the overspend for wages for staff not working for that year would be £8333 (based upon a 37.5 hour working week).

Regular lateness can also have a strong negative effect on employee morale. In fact, one of the most common reasons we hear for customers choosing a Time & Attendance system is to remove the ill feeling often generated within the workforce.

With our system, all such problems are removed, as every employee is treated the same. Focus will also generate a whole range of attendance reports, allowing you to track performance based upon individuals, groups or sections, enabling you to target problem areas as and when they arise without being accused of favouritism or victimisation. Attendance reports can also form the basis of disciplinary meetings or reviews.
