OnSinch proudly introduces an innovative enhancement to our workforce management suite: the Geo-Location Clock-In feature. This cutting-edge functionality harnesses GPS technology to ensure the precision of staff clock-ins, marking a significant leap forward in managing workforce attendance accurately and efficiently.
Precision and Integrity in Every Clock-In
The core of this new feature lies in its use of GPS to verify employees' presence at their designated work locations.

This GPS verification offers an unequivocal confirmation of on-site attendance, enhancing the accuracy of time records.

- Enhanced Record-Keeping: Features transparent audit trails for all clock-in activities and GPS accuracy insights, improving shift closures, payroll efficiency, and security.
Future Directions: QR Codes and NFC Chips
Looking forward, OnSinch aims to augment this feature with additional check-in options, such as QR code scans and NFC chip recognition, providing employers with greater flexibility and enhancing the overall security of the clock-in process.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Geo-Location Clock-In feature work?
The feature uses GPS to verify an employee's presence within a pre-defined radius at their designated work location, ensuring accurate attendance.
What happens if an employee clocks in outside the designated area?
Administrators receive instant alerts for any clock-ins outside the allowed area, enabling quick resolution and maintaining compliance with attendance policies.
Can the feature handle GPS inaccuracies or weak signals?
Yes, the system logs the GPS signal's accuracy at clock-in, helping administrators distinguish between genuine issues and potential timekeeping discrepancies. Also, the system accommodates scenarios where the GPS signal may be unavailable. In these instances, employees can still clock in; the system logs the attempt and notes the absence of GPS data. This ensures employees aren't penalized for circumstances beyond their control.
Will there be more ways to clock in besides GPS in the future?
OnSinch plans to introduce additional check-in methods, such as QR code scanning and NFC chip recognition, to offer flexibility and enhance security.
How does this feature benefit payroll processing?
By ensuring accurate and verifiable attendance records, the feature streamlines payroll processing, reduces time theft, and improves overall operational efficiency.
