Time and attendance systems are employee time-tracking software that integrates with payroll software. Running payroll with a time and attendance system improves efficiency and accuracy by reducing the need for double entry.

There are many benefits to using a time attendance system, including tracking employee time and attendance, managing employee absences, reducing employee theft, and improving communication between employees and management.

Here are three of the most common benefits of using a time attendance system: 

1. Tracking Employee Time and Attendance

A time attendance system can help you track employee time and attendance. This is important for two reasons: first, it can help you identify any potential violations of the company's attendance policy; second, it can help you manage employee absences. By tracking employee hours worked, you can ensure that employees are meeting their work obligations.

2. Managing Employee Absences

A time attendance system can also help you manage employee absences. By tracking employee hours worked, you can determine how much time employees are spending away from work. This information can be used to calculate accrued vacation days or sick days, for example. It can also be used to determine how much overtime an employee should be working.

3. Reducing Employee Theft

A time attendance system can also reduce employee theft. Tracking the number of hours an employee has worked each day makes it easier to identify patterns in theft behaviour.
