Traditional timesheets or paper reports are solutions from the past that can be easily automatized nowadays.

According to a study by WorkMarket, 40% of employees spend at least a quarter of their time on manual, repetitive tasks.

The challenge of traditional timesheets

For years, businesses have relied on manual time sheets to keep track of employee hours. However, this method is not without its challenges. Timesheets can be easily lost or damaged, leading to data loss and inaccuracies. Of course, you could opt for a virtual sheet, but again, this is a repeatitive maintenance that could certainly be avoided.

Time lost in administrative tasks with timesheets

On top of that, employees may forget to fill out their time or intentionally manipulate their hours, leading to payroll discrepancies and potential legal issues.

Understanding QR Codes

QR Codes is short for “Quick Response Codes” and it’s some kind of modern two-dimensional barcode that is scanned and can return a wide range of data. It’s typically used for URL redirection but can store various kinds of data (numeric, bytes, kanji, etc.)

It originates from Japan but is widely used around the world today.

According to Statista statistics report in 2023 , approximately 89 million smartphone users have used QR code scanners and have scanned QR codes in the United States alone, marking a 20 million increase from the previous year. This figure is projected to exceed 100 million by the end of the year 2025

This technology is very popular and its adoption is growing each year.

This eliminates the need for paper or virtual timesheets. It also streamlines the entire time-tracking process. We generate insight & detailed reports for you that you can freely use.

How it works

- QR Code generation: In a few clicks, the platform generates unique QR codes for your organization or its subdivisions.

- Employee check-in: Employees simply scan the QR code upon arrival at work to clock in.

- Automatic time tracking: The platform automatically records the time when the QR code is scanned, providing accurate and reliable time-tracking data.

- Employee check-out: When employees leave work, they scan their QR code again to clock out.

The benefits

The first benefit is the accuracy it adds. It provides exact data regarding the entry or exit or your workers. It's also convenient. Employees can easily clock-in and clock-out using their phones. There's way less management to think of. Finally, it's efficient. It streamline the time-tracking process and its reports, saving time & resources to handle work hours or detect anomalies.
