How to Stop Employee Time Theft with MinuteHound’s Biometric Technology

What is Buddy Punching?

Buddy punching is a form of time theft where one employee clocks in or out for another, often because the latter has to leave early, arrive late, or take an unscheduled break. This can cost your business money and erode the trust between you and your employees.
