For hourly workers who are paid according to the number of hours worked within the pay period, an employer can make use of an automated time tracking system to track man-hours and pay employees accordingly. Those man-hours can be calculated manually but by performing manual calculations to compute time card or time clock data, there is a great likelihood of innocent errors causing potential costly payroll mistakes which can be avoided by making use of an automated third-party pay rules engine like Pendylum’s.
Employee time data, collected by the use of s to swipe card or bio-metric data collectors to clock in and out can be transferred into the pay rules engine and all relevant rules can be automatically computed, resulting in accurate, compliant output for your payroll software to finalize for pay day.

Today, industries and other organizations are expected to carry out their activities more efficiently since the business environment is highly competitive in 2020.
