Clock IT! – Developed a Time and Attendance system that uses electronic Clocks placed in many locations throughout the property. The clocks capture employee movements and job numbers (cost centres) using swipe cards. The information in the clocks is then downloaded via either a network, phone modem or wireless link to the host Time and Attendance system. The host system calculates time allocations (e.g. Normal Pay, Overtime, RDO, etc) based on structured rules against Pay Classes (awards) for a pay week. This system also enables the payroll officer to make additional time allocations (e.g. Sick / Annual Leave, etc) and export the infor- mation to be used by a Payroll System.

Pay Rates are also captured in this system and along with the Job Number (cost centre) information collected at the clocks and subsequently downloaded to the host system and is also used to prepare cost allocation reporting. Many screens and reports are on offer to enable reconciliation with payroll and assist with labour re- source management.
