What is the true cost of using a traditional time clock?   

Would you believe - $ 848.96 per employee per year?

Manual Calculation  - According to the statistics, an experienced Payroll clerks takes about 7 minutes to total the hours on a paper time card. A complicated task that many don’t think about. Since time is measured in 60ths, adding punched time with a calculator is all but impossible. Studies have shown that manual time card calculation takes a payroll clerk approximately seven minutes per card to total.*  If we wanted to know how much time your Payroll clerks spends counting hours every month, we do that:

7 minutes X 40 employees X 4 weeks = 1120 minutes or 18.67 hours

That means that by using MPO time clock, you can save your Payroll clerks 18.67 hours of his/her time every month.

Lost Time On average 1 out of every 8 time cards is totaled incorrectly, cheating the employer or the employee out of time and money. Studies have shown the average employee is overpaid for 4 hours and 5 minutes each week or 49 minutes per day.* Mostly due to incomplete, illegible, or incorrectly totaled time cards. Even if manual timekeeping only accounts for about 15 minutes a day in overpayment, the cost is substantial.

Human Error In addition, transposed numbers, misread totals, etc., involved in manual timekeeping cost even more. Studies have shown payroll error factors to be between 1% and 8% of the total payroll cost.*

Manual Calculation** $ 45.67 per employee per year
Lost Time** (based on 15 min per day) $ 489.81 per employee per year
Human Error** (based on 2% error) $ 313.48 per employee per year
Total Cost** $ 848.96 per employee per year

Going paperless for time keeping gives you two huge benefits.

  1. First, your work is reduced. Filling in forms is faster. There's no paper time sheet (or electronic files) to pass around, store, or print (although this is still possible). Your "paper process" work, at the very least, is cut in half.
  2. Secondly, now you have immediate access to important time sheet information. Everyone associated with a time sheet can have immediate access to it based on their security login. Lost timesheets, not knowing when or if a timesheet was approved, not being able to instantly pull up a history of your timesheets, and not being able to reports on data already entered on timesheets, are things of the past.  

Simple to Manage - Access your Clock Manager from any Internet connected computer, even while traveling. View your Who's In/Out report, edit time cards, and manage employee overtime. View, print, or email timecards and summary reports. 

Simple to Punch In/Out - Employees can punch from a single computer or multiple computers. They simply need to enter their username and password and click a button.
