The Challenge of Inclusive Time Tracking

Dear Community,

Are you struggling with time tracking for employees who don't have company laptops or smartphones? Do you find yourself managing manual timesheets or dealing with inaccurate clock-ins from your non-desk staff? Many organisations face this exact challenge – ensuring all employees can track their working hours accurately and compliantly, regardless of their access to technology.

A Simple Solution Already in Your Personio Account

The good news? The Entrance App transforms any tablet or laptop with internet connection into a shared time-tracking device, allowing employees to clock in and out without needing to log into Personio.

How It Works

The Entrance App offers:

1. Quick Setup: Turn any device with a browser into a time-tracking kiosk in minutes

2. Easy Authentication: Employees clock in/out using simple PIN codes or QR codes

3. Accurate Records: Capture precise start and end times where work actually happens

4. Compliance Support: Track hours accurately to meet regulatory requirements
