Accurate Time and Attendance is Paramount

Having an accurate time clock is one of the most important features within a business. Employers use the time clock as a way of keeping everything fair and employees rely on them in order to be paid correctly. This is why the implementation of a fully functioning web based time and attendance system which records employee data in real time is becoming ever more essential.

The time clock is one of the most important features of any business, and the more accurate that time clock is, the better. It’s better for employees who want to make sure they get paid for every minute on the clock, and it’s better for employers who want to run a fair, tight ship. With all of the challenges businesses face though, it’s important to try to streamline as much as possible.

That’s where Elf Productivity Ltd. comes into the picture.

Time and Attendance Solutions

What Elf Productivity Ltd. has done is create a software suite that can do multiple things at once. The software combines Access Control and Employee Self-Service with a time clock feature that will keep an accurate count of how long someone has been working. Not only that, but the software allows someone to alter and change their time for accuracy without the necessity of involving other departments and employees. Instead of running a dozen separate programs, each of which has a separate purpose, this suite allows employees to do everything all at once.

Simple and Straightforward

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line, and this software suite makes the process as simple as possible. The setup and installation are simple, and the software is easy to navigate so that employees can make solid use of it regardless of their level of technical literacy.

At the end of the day a business should always use the best tool for the job, and the suite we’ve created was designed to keep track of all the pertinent details.

Take Advantage of Shop Floor Data Capture

Production companies can have any number of employees and machines working at any one time making it increasingly difficult for them to monitor time and energy. Meaning business are often unable to determine if employees are slacking or if machines are lagging behind. Fitting a shop floor data capture system in to your business will provide you with the opportunity to track each individual employees actions within each section of the production process as well as monitor machine production and waste numbers.

The Art of Chaos

Production is a stressful part of a business, especially having to monitor employees and efficiency of machinery. This responsibility is challenging while still maintaining a cost-effective production process. The amount of machines and employees are at times overwhelming. With each employee working in various parts of the process, it is often though to determine where there is potential to maximise time and energy. That is, unless you have the right software.

Monitoring All Angles

The unique ID swipe system that Ceequel® uses allows the seamless tracking of both individuals and groups: creating real-time result comparison on duration, efficiency, and productivity; giving the opportunity to recognise specific areas that need attention, in order to reach optimal employee efficiency. You can compare the detailed time records for production and employee attendance, for accurate individual productivity data. Our software even calculates performance based pay, then transfers this data to payroll for seamless accounting. These results are then used tweak the process, amplifying individual and group productivity.

Tracking Machinery

This software isn’t just for employees though, it also maintains the capacity to monitor machines as well, even using calculations to convert employee labour and machine usage into a monetary value which can then track machine down time, allowing you to locate areas to maximise efficiency, helping you monitor your production growth and discover needs for new equipment, ultimately increasing your productivity by process maximisation.

Is Employee Self Service the wave of the Future?

Businesses are much like machines, with departments acting as cogs that work together in order to achieve goals. If one department fails to complete a task, then it’s possible that other departments within the business may struggle in the completion of their day to day job.

Specialisation in work was one of the biggest developments in creating a society. In the long ago and far away you had metal workers and horse breeders, innkeepers and tanners, each doing their own job in a small setting. Fast-forward to today’s workforce and the village has been replaced by the company, but the idea of specialisation has remained the same: businesses have cashiers and data entry workers, human resources and managers, and each of them does a specific job. The idea is that every worker, team, and department, will come together like cogs in a machine to create a business that works quickly and steadily to achieve its overarching goal.

That’s the goal, at least.

The problem is that it is possible to draw those lines a little too darkly. It isn’t just that a certain task is supposed to be done by another department, it’s that it must be done by that department. Say that Margery just got married and needs to change her last name in the system, but instead of allowing her the ability to go in and do it herself she has to fill out a double set of forms and wait for HR to make the changes for her. Maybe James moved over the weekend, and now he has to update his address. Instead of trusting him to put in the changes he also needs to fill out a stack of forms and wait for HR to get around to making the changes.

The Flexibility of Employee Self Service

Specialisation is a good thing, but so is flexibility. That’s where employee self service comes into the picture. Employee self service means that instead of requiring employees to fill out paperwork and to wait for a specific department to make any and all changes within the company’s system, every employee is given access to change their own information. So rather than filling out forms and waiting a few days to a few weeks, it’s now possible for employees to sign in to the company system, make the necessary changes in a few minutes, and then get back to work.

Elf Productivity Ltd. Is Here To Help

The difficulty with embracing employee self service is that it requires giving more employees more access, which is something that a lot of company software just isn’t made to do. Like the employees the computers have only been programmed to do very specific tasks. That’s why Elf Productivity Ltd. designed a software suite that incorporates everything into a single, flexible whole. From the time clock to data changes, production information to access control, this suite puts all the tools a business needs right at its fingertips.

Streamlining of Business Processes
