Digital time clock: track your team's hours on tablet and mobile

Tracking clock-ins and clock-outs on paper or in a spreadsheet is time-consuming, error-prone, and makes end-of-month calculations a headache. On top of that, the Labour Code (art. 202.º) requires companies to keep a record of working hours — including the start and end of each period and any breaks — and to retain that record for five years.

Our Time Clock handles all of this effortlessly. Employees clock in within seconds, and the company monitors everything in one place.

How it works

The platform has three parts that work together:

• Tablet kiosk, at the company entrance, where the team clocks in and out using a PIN.
• Personal area on mobile, where each employee checks their hours and submits requests.
• Management area, where the person in charge monitors the team, handles requests, and generates reports.

Kiosk: clock in within seconds

• The employee enters their PIN and selects clock-in, clock-out, or the start or end of a break.
• Each clock event can capture a photo and location, preventing anyone from clocking in on someone else's behalf.
• Only tablets authorised by the company can accept clock events.
• Works offline: if the connection drops, records are stored on the tablet and synced automatically when connectivity is restored.
• In "My Hours", each employee can view their hours for the day, week, and month.

Personal area: everything on the employee's phone

• Clock in via mobile, if the company allows it, only within the defined radius of the workplace.
• Request leave and check the balance of available days.
• Submit absence justifications, with a photo or PDF of the supporting document.
• Request a correction for a missed or incorrect clock event.
• Confirm overtime hours.

It installs on the home screen as an app, with your company's logo.

Management: your team at a glance

• Real-time dashboard: who is working, on a break, yet to arrive, or already left — plus an attendance chart throughout the day.
• Pending tasks: missing clock-ins, records without a clock-out, and unresolved requests — all in one place.
• Requests: approve or decline leave, absences, and corrections with a single click, with automatic notification to the employee.
• Absences: monthly team calendar and leave balances per employee.
• Automatic national public holidays, including moveable ones, plus optional local municipal holidays.
• Multiple locations and departments, each with its own address and geofence radius.
• Full employee profile: personal details, contacts, contract, schedule, and access permissions.

Reports ready in PDF and Excel

• Daily log per employee, showing clock-in, clock-out, breaks, hours worked, scheduled hours, and balance.
• Weekly subtotals and period totals.
• Location of each clock-in and clock-out, with a direct link to Google Maps.
• Team summary, filterable by location or department.
• No record is ever deleted: every correction is logged in the audit trail, including the reason and who made it.

Overtime with no surprises

The system automatically detects work performed outside of scheduled hours and organises the records required under art. 231.º of the Labour Code:

• grounds for the overtime;
• compensatory rest;
• confirmation by the employee, who may also dispute the hours;
• full history of all changes.

Privacy first

• Photos taken at clock events are automatically deleted after the retention period you define.
• Location tracking is only used when the company enables it.
• All data is hosted in Portugal.
