Using Your Visitor System for Time and Attendance

Tuesday, January 31, 2012 by John Murzycki

Time and Attendance with ID Card Software

One of the benefits of using EasyLobby badge software is that the same system you use for visitor registration can also be used to track the time and attendance of employees, contractors, volunteers, or any other personnel.

It's a relatively easy process to use your visitor management software for time and attendance.
 
All you need to do is to import all the employee names into the EasyLobby visitor software. There are several ways to accomplish this step. Contact our technical support center if you need assistance with this at support@easylobby.com.

You then design an ID badge template that includes a barcode for all those you wish to record the time and attendance. The barcode will be used to scan them in and out of the facility.

Or  you can provide them with a proximity card which, when used in conjunction with EasyLobby's access control integration, will allow those individuals access to locked doors, elevators or turnstiles controlled by the access system.

The time that the employee or guest is onsite is then recorded in the EasyLobby electronic visitor management system. You are able to either access a report with the details of check in and check out times, or you can export the data using a variety of formats into other systems.

Our time and attendance feature can be used for all employees, or to record the time for temporary employees and contractors. You may be able to achieve considerable savings by documenting the time and attendance of outside contractors and to issue payments based on the actual onsite time.

One of our customers in the food transportation business has used this feature to avoid unwarranted delay fees charged by other trucking companies who in the past had claimed that it took longer to load or offload materials in their facilities.

Another EasyLobby customer, a large electric utility, realized considerable savings by closely monitoring the time and attendance of all contractors working at their generating facilities during planned and unplanned outages.

Keep in mind that the time and attendance feature is just  one of the many different capabilities that can be used in conjunction with our visitor systems. There are many others.
