uAttend’s Employee Time Clocks Strengthen Productivity Levels and Boost Profits

Accuracy in employee time and attendance recording is a highly sought after, yet equally elusive goal for today’s employers. This is especially true if employers are operating without any form of modern automation or biometric technology.

uAttend provides reliable and successful solutions for workforce management with its line of biometric employee time clocks. Featuring fingerprint and facial recognition technology, our solutions have a proven track record when it comes to empowering small and medium-sized businesses. If your goal is to strengthen your productivity levels and achieve accuracy in your time and attendance tracking, a uAttend™ Employee Management System is the ultimate solution.  


Elements that Adversely Affect Productivity

There are many external factors that can affect employee productivity. However, productivity can also be affected by internal factors as well, such as the lack of a stringent and robust workforce management system. When employees feel that they are free to do as they please and can easily take advantage of their attendance monitoring system, productivity levels drop drastically. This usually occurs in workplaces that operate with the so-called “Honor System” or that use mechanical time clocks to monitor employee time and attendance.

In contrast, businesses using web time clocks not only ensure immunity from such wage fraud activities, but they also lower operating costs, increase productivity levels, improve employee accountability and boost profitability.

Maximize Efficiency

uAttend workforce management solutions can help maximize your company’s efficiency with their many unique features. Our biometric employee time clocks allow businesses to verify employee identity by using unique physiological traits. Entrepreneurs have the option of choosing from fingerprint and facial recognition systems depending on their particular needs. uAttend systems ensure that every employee is only able to claim time and pay for the actual amount of hours worked - nothing more.

With a uAttend system, small and medium-sized businesses get the most out of their employees’ time as they are held accountable for every working minute. The need for multiple tiers of management or human supervision to manage the punch in and out process can be reduced or even eliminated, thus freeing up your resources and lowering the stress of managing your payroll operations.

From both a managerial and ownership perspective, uAttend’s web time clocks are a huge benefit. They can streamline your payroll processes, enhance your productivity, boost profits, and simply enable you to do more in less time.

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.
