Time Tracking

Recording working hours was a grey area for a long time. Since the German Federal Labour Court clarified in 2022 that employers must systematically record working time, the question is no longer whether but how. Time tracking gives you a tool that does exactly that, without fitness-tracker gimmicks and without staff feeling surveilled.

You can record in two ways: clock in and out in real time, or enter times afterwards when someone forgot the click or worked on the road. Both paths land in the same clean timesheet.

The flextime account keeps itself. Each day is measured against the target hours, the tool builds the balance, and you see at a glance who is in the plus and who in the minus. Overtime is no longer a feeling but a traceable figure.

The most important part is the check against German working-time law (ArbZG). Time tracking watches the mandatory breaks from six and from nine hours, the daily maximum working time and the eleven-hour rest period between two working days. Night, Sunday and holiday work are detected and flagged so premiums and limits do not slip through.

At month-end you run the close. The recorded times are locked and can be handed over as the basis for payroll. No manual copying of slips into a spreadsheet, no guessing whether Tuesday 3.5 hours is already in there.

Time tracking is one building block of HR Management and shares its data with the shift planner and leave planner. Planned shifts and approved absences flow in, so the actual state always matches the target. Recorded once, consistent everywhere.
