Meeting the needs of the Manufacturing Industry
In the UK manufacturing sector, supply and demand can shift rapidly due to seasonal cycles, promotional campaigns, product launches, and broader economic pressures such as inflation, Brexit-related trade adjustments, or global supply chain disruption. To sustain output and profitability, organisations must stay agile – balancing workforce capacity with fluctuating demand. Achieving this balance is critical to avoid the pitfalls of overstaffing or understaffing, such as rising labour costs, reduced efficiency, or compromised product quality.
Addressing these challenges requires a robust Time and Attendance System to optimise workforce deployment across UK manufacturing environments. Our Workforce Management Software equips manufacturers with the tools to unlock greater value from their teams:
Time & Attendance Benefits
Capture Shop Floor Data in Real Time
PC-based clocking stations allow employees to interact with the system directly on the shop floor, with on-screen prompts ensuring accuracy. Managers gain instant access to data for reporting and decision-making.
Track Costs with Precision
Built-in job costing features calculate expenses tied to specific jobs, helping teams manage both direct and indirect costs with greater control.
Reduce Legal and Compliance Risks
Automated compliance tracking with UK and EU labour regulations lowers the risk of errors, fines, or costly disputes.
Streamline Shift Scheduling
Rostering tools match shifts with machine usage, ensuring maximum efficiency on the production line.
Control Overtime Effectively
Advanced rostering options allow clear allocation and oversight of overtime, keeping spend within budget and aligned with UK legal frameworks.
Integrate Systems Seamlessly
ERP integration connects planning, production, sales, and other core processes into a single, coordinated system.
Protect Employee Safety
Fire evacuation functionality records employee location at clock-in, ensuring quick roll-call and safer evacuation in emergencies.
Eliminate Time Theft
Biometric terminals prevent “buddy punching” by verifying employees through fingerprint recognition, reducing fraud and unnecessary costs.
Absence Management
Access real-time attendance records to reduce absenteeism, improve productivity, and resolve issues early.
Streamlined Payroll Practices
Seamless payroll exports cut down on manual input, saving time and reducing payroll errors.
Gain Visibility with Reporting
Dashboards deliver up-to-the-minute insights on overtime, absences, and productivity trends, supporting informed decision-making.
Manage Leave and Entitlements
Employees and managers can request, approve, and track holiday, sick leave, and personal time within the system, eliminating scheduling bottlenecks.
