Buddy Punching and How Much It Costs Your Business
Most employers are completely unaware about how much money their business is actually losing due to the “buddy punching” phenomenon.
While it may seem harmless, according to the article “Hey Buddy…Can You Clock Me In?” on the business blog PrimePay, this occurrence has become an increasing threat to lowering employee productivity and even shows a direct connection to rising labor costs for the business.
The perfect solution for this problem is implementing a Biometric Time Clock system. These systems typically use an individual’s finger or hand print to identify the employee which requires an employee to be physically present in order to clock in and out of work each day.
With this technology, there is no need for time cards or passwords to track when employees are working!
