Who would have thought that your cell phone would start playing a prominent role in the workplace? Well, with all the new smartphone apps out there, it’s starting to get a bit more imaginable. In fact, Econz has just developed an app that will take the mobile time clock software, allowing management to view time, attendance, job tasks, cost codes, breaks, and GPS tracking data. of all mobile workers. The application is called Timecard and it will surely become a breakthrough in the business world, and that is why:

All data from mobile time card software can be easily sent to 100+ accounting and payroll packages with this new app. This makes paper time cards and tedious payroll paperwork a thing of the past. This also makes the workplace more environmentally conscious by eliminating unnecessary waste.

In addition, Econz argues that the Timecard app will increase worker productivity with its GPS functionality and fast data transfer that can measure break time. Employees are more likely to arrive on time and stay out of unauthorized areas knowing their boss may be tracking them. Of course, this time card software may raise privacy issues, but the employer should disclose it and the employee should agree to it to avoid any conflict.

Econz also says its new app will reduce costs and help document federal and state hourly wage laws. Again, reduced paper use allows for lower costs and less employee time spent on payroll paperwork, allowing the business to run more efficiently overall. And with a close eye on time clock software, overtime will be easier to control, especially when employees need to take their breaks.

The cost of the app is $12.99 per month per device and is available on all major networks and most phones, including Blackberries. Whether the app is right for your business depends on how you’d like your business to be run, but regardless, it’s impressive to see how much of an impact mobile devices are having on the business world.
