Hardware Clocks FAQs
Hardware clocks, also known as time clocks or timekeeping devices, are physical devices used to track and record employee attendance and working hours. These clocks are designed to accurately capture time data, which can be used for payroll processing and workforce management.
Hardware clocks typically use various methods to track time, such as proximity cards or PIN codes. Employees use these methods to clock in and out, and the hardware clock records the timestamp. The recorded data can then be transferred to a payroll or time management system for processing.
Hardware clocks offer several benefits, including:
Accurate time tracking: Hardware clocks eliminate the need for manual timekeeping, reducing errors and ensuring accurate records.
- Time theft prevention: Biometric features and secure identification methods help prevent buddy punching and time theft.
- Streamlined payroll processing: The data captured by hardware clocks can be seamlessly integrated into payroll systems, reducing administrative tasks and improving efficiency.
- Compliance with labor regulations: Hardware clocks help businesses comply with labor laws by accurately tracking employee work hours and breaks.
