Key features of our time and attendance software
Transform the way you capture and manage employee attendance. Our attendance system empowers employees to accurately populate their timesheets with their phone, or with one of our many other innovative timekeeping solutions.
Clever, cost-effective timekeeping codes
Our unique 6-digit employee codes or QR code clocking allow employees to only log time when they are at work. This clever solution is simple, efficient and cost-effective.
Virtually log time on projects
Allow employees to manually type their time in/time out. Alternatively, you can use the clock icon to automatically record the time they spend on specific project.
Auto-populated timesheets
Automatically populate timesheets with data by using any of our time saving methods when your employees clock in or out.
Payroll time and attendance
All timesheet data collected in our time and attendance system can also be used to calculate variable pay elements like overtime or shift working.

Is your attendance system working perfectly already? Integrate it through our flexible API and streamline reporting with all your employee management information in one place.
Flexible timesheets for all rotas
Quickly and easily create timesheets for all working patterns.
You can specify working hours and days, as well as ‘Week On Week Off’ shift patterns. Our attendance software will even automatically calculate pro rata entitlement, so payroll isn’t such a complex task.

We provide many flexible ways to customise your time management solutions, so you have a tailored attendance software that suits your exact business requirements.
Discover time logging software
Clocking in and clocking out is a tried and tested time and attendance system. But with new times, new attendance software is needed. That’s why with People HR’s time and attendance system, employees can automatically record clock-ins and clock-outs in a number of ways:
- By tapping in and out physically
- With a QR code
- Virtually via the People HR mobile app
- Automatically with Geo Sensing on location
- Or by using biometrics
Review & authorise attendance with ease
A full authorisation process is embedded in our time and attendance software. Managers can review and authorise employees’ time-tracking to verify attendance data is accurate at all times. So you have full visibility of who is using their time effectively, and you can take proactive steps to plan with those who aren’t.
Discover powerful time analytics
Real-time detailed time and attendance data is regularly fed directly to your custom reporting suite. You’ll be able to see an in-depth analysis of how employees utilise their time, including exportable graphs and charts that visualise attendance and prompt discussions. And with actionable insights at just the click of a button, our time and attendance system will ensure reporting will never have to be a chore again

What customers say about our time and attendance systems for small businesses
Time and attendance software FAQs
What is time & attendance tracking?
Time and attendance is the process of tracking work hours to monitor late arrivals, early departures, time taken on breaks, as well as planned and unplanned absences. This is important because employee punctuality and attendance are vital to business productivity. On the other hand, poor timekeeping and absenteeism can result in operational failures and spiralling costs. If you do not accurately track employee time and attendance it could also result in:
- Under or over staffing
- Scheduling and rota failures
- Time theft (in the form of extra paid holidays or hours)
- Non-compliance with the law
- Payroll errors, and more
How can time and attendance software help my business?
Keeping track of time and attendance manually is a tedious data-entry overhead. It makes it impossible to make informed decisions in real-time. And reporting on the data is also time intensive and error-prone. Switch to time and attendance software and you will be able to:
- Create dynamic rotas to suit any schedule
- Enable employees to clock in and out on a computer, mobile device or time clock
- Automatically populate timesheets
- Streamline time-off requests and approvals
- Accurately calculate variable pay elements
- Generate in depth reports on time and attendance with actionable insights on how you can improve profitability
What is Bradford Factor Scoring?
Unplanned absences can last anywhere from a few minutes to a number of days or many months. Persistent lateness can often be more disruptive than short spells of sickness. The Bradford Factor takes this into account and provides HR professionals with a way to measure the impact on the business.
