subject: Time, Time, Timesheets, Online That Is [print this page] In 1964, the Rolling Stones recorded an epic song from the 60s called Time is On My Side. Back then, everyone bought into that mantra, sang it loudly (Time, time, time is on my side, yes it is!) and almost 50 years later, here we are, singing the same tune. It may sometimes feel as though time is no longer on your side if you survived the 60s but you can become much more efficient and savvy managing your time right now with the help of web-based, mobile time tracking.
You see, employee time in any business, whether large or small, requires a three pronged approach. Tracking time, managing time, and reporting the results of both. Lets take a look at tracking time first. Using online employee timesheets it allows everyone, no matter where they find themselves, to clock in and out in real time. That might mean Ella Bella finishes her shift, uses her smartphone or cell phone with texting capabilities, to clock out at that moment rather than after she spends a fair amount of time visiting with co-workers on her way back to the break room to collect her time card and take it to the punch clock. An online timesheet turns any pc or mobile device into a time clock. As Ellas employee, you can now sing that infamous chorus, Time, time, time, is on my side, yes it is.
And that same smartphone/cell phone also allows Ella to begin her work day accessing her schedule with is like having a to-do list spelled out right in front of her. The result? More focused work resulting in more productivity. Time tracking and time management software keeps time tracking and employee scheduling simultaneously under control. Managers can set employee reminders and receive alerts based on employee attendance. Vacation hours are figured with automatic tracking and accruals of paid time off. This app can control overtime overages with proactive tools to monitor employees and notify you before expensive overtime starts (Time is on your side, yes it is.).
And lastly, reporting is a key component to making the best use of your time tracking efforts. Employees dont have the hassle and inaccuracy of completing timesheets to managers for approval by the end of the workday. Instead, its all automatically generated online. You have the full capability of seeing where the hours have been worked by compiling job codes for important clients or projects. Payroll, accounting, and invoicing integration is all possible. Data storage with an automated time tracker is safe and secure in the cloud of perpetuity. Other reports can be in real time or produced once all the figures are compiled including date ranges, payroll periods, employee(s), group(s), and others. Multiple reporting formats are available.
Time means $$$ and productivity means everything. If you really want time on your side, employ a time tracking software and make time work for you. But speaking of money, its time we answered the question in everyones mind: Whats this going to cost you? Well, were glad you asked. The money you save right away by reducing costly reporting errors will more than pay for your reasonable monthly charge for web-based online timesheets. It is reasonable and economical. Isnt it time you looked into it?
