Production jobs quickly booked using smart cards on clocking stations

TUC (Trades Union Congress) general secretary Brendan Barber highlighted Unions’ concern over wide-ranging measures to slash the deficit when told delegates at this week’s annual congress: "These are not temporary cuts, but a permanent rollback of public services and the welfare state. Not so much an economic necessity as a political project driven by an ideological clamour for a minimal state.” He added: "What they take apart now could take generations to rebuild. Decent public services are the glue that holds a civilised society together and we diminish them at our peril."

At-a-glance summary of time and attendance details, showing individuals or groups of employees is possible with a Time and Attendance Wales system that records attendance using smart cards. An Exception view quickly identifies areas where the normal working pattern has not been followed, while all production jobs are quickly booked by employees on the clocking stations using their cards. All-in-one job booking and job costing are some of the advanced features of the system, as well as individual and group absence planners.
