JUST TURN IN YOUR TIMECARD!!!
Every two weeks it's the same old hassle. "Why is my check short?" "I could have sworn I turned in all the crew's timecards." "Can you cut me a check for the difference if I give you a timecard today?" The other good one is when the guy walks in on Thursday afternoon with 4 days worth of timecards and 10 guys on each card thinking he's doing me a favor because..."payroll doesn't come out until tomorrow."
REALLY? NO CLUE! ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE!
But we jump through hoops - sorting crumpled timecards with smeared pencil writing & coffee stains and unfolding crunchy timecards that were left lying on the dashboard of some guy's truck for the last week. We'll get it done. We always do. It's our job. But WHY does it have to be this way EVERY WEEK? I talk to the boss and he says he'll talk to the guys about it - and I'm sure he does, but, the effects are always short lived. Besides, next week it will be someone else that makes my Monday the first day of my 4-day nightmare.
WOW! Think this sounds a little exaggerated?
Well guess what . . . it may not be! Most of us spend so much time focusing on the operations side of our business that at times we forget what the payroll admin team goes through week after week. All we know is that when we need job cost labor information that can only come from their timecard processing, it never comes quickly enough. We tend to forget the substandard paper scribbling from the field that they sort through to get that information. The truth is, what they do - pay period after pay period - really is pretty impressive, when you think about it.
But the situation described above DOESN'T NEED TO HAPPEN!
Check out SHARCC® Time & Attendance software from UEVEN, LLC. It works with our EmpPedia HRIS software and eliminates all the aggravations that accompany paper timecard labor collection.
UEVEN's paperless time collection system fits seamlessly into your payroll processing and provides "second-by-second" reporting information to your management team throughout the week. It's custom designed to meet your needs and it provides a Return on Investment in LESS THAN 1 YEAR! But that's only one part of what this powerful software has to offer. With UEVEN's EmpPedia HRIS software, office employees clock in & out of shifts and specific tasks right from their desktop or lap top. Supervisors are notified via e-mail if their employee requires any type of manual timecard consideration BEFORE the data ever gets to payroll for processing. Field employees are managed in a very similar fashion by clocking in & out via their laptop, notebook, or Blackberry device. With this state of the art software, you can eliminate the hassles of timecard collection and save up to 50% on your current Payroll Processing costs.
For security purposes, we've added biometric scanning to the process to ensure you don't have "ghost employees" receiving payroll checks. Raises, PTO, discipline, training & education, hiring and firing - all of it is managed electronically through our EmpPedia software. As for those reports you're looking for, they are available at the touch of a button - anytime, anywhere, loaded with real-time data. Specific to project, department, supervisor, or individual, this is the kind of timely information you and your management team have been looking for.
Take the Payroll Department out for lunch - they deserve it. Let them know you're about to make all of their lives a whole lot easier with SHARCC Time & Attendance and EmpPedia software from UEVEN, LLC.
