Building sites are typically busy locations with many people coming and going throughout the day. This can make it challenging for building companies to track the attendance of employees, contractors, clients, and site visitors.

The easiest solution for monitoring who is on the job site is to use an attendance tracking app like Smart Clockin. Smart Clockin is a self-scan clock in system, which operates without the need for any additional proprietary hardware. It works using an app, which can be installed on virtually any smart phone, tablet, or computer.

Smart Clockin provides a wide range of features including attendance tracking, automatic timesheet generation, and integrated SMS messaging. It makes keeping track of employees, contractors, clients, and visitors simple.

How Does Smart Clockin Work?

Smart Clockin is a versatile software application that can be used in several ways:

Self Scan Clockins

A Self Scan Clock In allows users to check into a location in seconds. The user simply opens the Smart Clockin app on their phone and scans a code to be registered as being present on the job site.

The code can be printed on a piece of paper or displayed on a screen. It’s also possible to use several different codes for various locations around a job site. This is very useful for large work sites as you can keep track of the movements of your team, contractors, and site visitors as they move about during the work day.

Once the code has been scanned, the Smart Clockin app will store the person’s status in a central database. You can then use the Smart Clockin administration section to view who is currently in attendance, when they clocked in, how long they have been at work and much more.

Self Scan Clock Ins are fast, convenient, and simple. You won’t need any proprietary hardware and you won’t need to allocate resources to manage site clock ins.

Fixed Location Clockins

Smart Clockin can also be used to create a fixed location clock in station. To do so, the Smart Clockin Timecard Manager application needs to be installed on an Android or Apple device. Users can then clock in by using the device to scan a unique Smart Clockin code which can be kept on their phone.

This is an ideal solution for building sites where all employees, contractors, and site visitors walk in through one entrance. Setting up a Smart Clockin fixed location clockin completely replaces timesheets, sign in books, and clunky clock in machines.

Team Leader Clockins

Smart Clockin’s Team Leader Clock In functionality allows on-site managers to manually clock in employees, contractors, and site visitors. To use this functionality, a team leader will install the Smart Clockin Scanner App on their own phone. They can then scan the unique Smart Clockin codes of other people to check them into the job site.
