Cloud Based Time Clocks – The best of Today’s Technology

Technology and automation have revolutionized our lives and have greatly impacted how we do things, especially at the workplace. Before automation, employee time and attendance had to be manually managed either by using the “honor system” or traditional Bundy time clocks.

The honor system means employees enter their work hours on a paper time sheet. In doing so, a business must trust that their employees are being honest about the time they worked. The whole process of recording employee time and attendance is often completed without any supervision, hence the name honor system. 



The Bundy clock method involves employees punching in with paper time cards using mechanical employee time clocks that print or stamp the time and date an employee punches in or out. In the majority of cases, there is also minimal supervision of this process.

As a result, both of these systems pose serious problems for businesses because employees can engage in practices such as time theft, proxy attendance, tardiness, and buddy punching.

Enter Cloud Based Time Clocks

Although the above-mentioned methods sound a bit primitive when you think how advanced today’s technology has become, there are numerous businesses that still use these time and attendance tracking methods. As you can well imagine, the end result is limiting these companies from being the best they can be. Businesses that have realized the shortcomings of manual time and attendance are quickly switching to automated, cloud based workforce management solutions such as those offered by uAttend.
