Sound Familiar?
Challenges you might be facing
Paper sign-in sheets and manual attendance tracking for hourly shift workers create data entry errors and payroll disputes every pay period
OSHA safety training certifications are tracked in spreadsheets — expired certifications go unnoticed until an audit or incident occurs
Seasonal demand creates workforce fluctuations: hiring 50 temporary workers in Q4 and offboarding them in Q1 overwhelms manual HR processes
Overtime calculations across daily, weekly, and state-specific thresholds are complex and frequently miscalculated, leading to compliance fines
Workers across multiple facilities have different shift patterns, pay rates, and union agreements that can't be modeled in a single system
PPE, tools, and equipment issued to employees aren't tracked — lost assets go unnoticed until inventory audits reveal shortages
The FriendHRM Advantage
How we solve this for you
Clock-In / Clock-Out System
Web-based, mobile, and hardware-compatible time clocks for factory floor workers. Biometric-ready, with photo verification and GPS validation for field workers.
Safety Training & OSHA Compliance
Assign mandatory safety courses (lockout/tagout, hazard communication, forklift certification) via the LMS. Track completion rates with automated renewal reminders.
Intelligent Overtime Management
Auto-detect daily and weekly overtime based on configurable thresholds per location or union agreement. Support for double-time, holiday premiums, and rest-break compliance.
Seasonal Hiring at Speed
Streamlined onboarding templates for temporary and seasonal workers. Pre-built checklists for safety orientation, equipment issuance, and payroll enrollment.
Geofenced Attendance Validation
Ensure clock-ins happen at approved worksites with GPS geofencing. Prevent buddy-punching and remote time fraud with location verification.
Equipment & Asset Tracking
Track PPE, tools, uniforms, and safety equipment assigned to each employee. Auto-flag outstanding items during offboarding for recovery.
"We eliminated 12 hours per week of manual timesheet reconciliation. The geofencing feature stopped buddy-punching at our warehouse sites overnight."
