Hi All,

I am working in a small IT company where 70% of the employees are at the client side, either they are located permanently or they are moving according to the need that arises, or sometimes 2 to 3 days in a week. It is very difficult to track the timings and the leaves of the employees for the HR department. Management has asked me for some great ideas for this so we can track this. Please, if anyone can advise me?

Here is the corrected text with proper spelling, grammar, and formatting:

Provide some attendance and timesheet formats to all your clients, which are to be signed (with time) by your employees whenever they visit the place. Prepare with entire information such as date, time-in, time-out, purpose, reported to, work allotted by, etc., whatever information you require and should make it mandatory with the clients, requesting a daily report update.

This might work... All the best.

    Dear Dhannyawilson,

    For salespeople, you can also track their call time. An employee should arrive in the field at the designated time and report to the respective person. If they fail to report, mark them as absent. If they are late, consider it as half-day leave.

    This approach may prove beneficial.

    All the best.
    Thank you.

    At the same time ask the report manager to approve our candidate timesheet. It will be an added advantage to track the employees.

    Hi, You can give every employee an ID card with GSM facility, with which we can access the area they are in a particular date and time. Regards R.Vivek

    Hey 1st decide weather you want the sales guys to come on time or do you want bussiness. Be clear before you make a policy.

    Dear all,

    Please check on Nokia Tej. I hope it will solve your problem. I'm on a dry run with them in our organization, but they specifically require Nokia handsets. We are using it for different purposes to suit our domain. Please do look into Nokia Tej.
