How Biometric Time Clocks Help Save Money for Your Business?
Usually, hourly paid employees are using paper timesheets which they fill out manually to write down clock in/clock out time, and for an accounting clerk to make data entry and calculate all hours manually will be a time consuming task while the final reports may still contain errors due to lost papers or incorrect data. With time clock systems data reports will be created automatically and payroll will be done correct, the salary will be paid only for hours worked and here comes an additional money saving opportunity.
If a worker missed 5 minutes a day or 0.5 h/week , it gives business owners $30-40 savings/week or $2000/year from one worker only.
With larger number of employees biometric time clock systems can lead to more savings and better investment of extra money back to the business.
