Who is a Timekeeper?

A timekeeper in an HRIS (Human Resources Information System) system such as HRplus, is an individual responsible for managing and maintaining employee time and attendance records. The timekeeper's role involves tracking employee work hours, leave requests, overtime, and other related data to ensure accurate and compliant payroll processing. They may also be responsible for inputting or approving time-related information such as shift allowances, managing time-off balances, generating reports, and addressing any discrepancies or issues related to time and attendance.

In many organizations, especially those with larger employee populations, the timekeeping process can become quite complex. HRIS systems are used to automate and streamline these tasks, making it easier for timekeepers to manage and track employee time-related information efficiently. On HRplus, the Time and Attendance module integrates with various time clock systems as well as the Leave module to enable the tracking of employee attendance. It also integrates seamlessly with the Payroll processing module to ensure accuracy and reduce manual data entry and errors.

Overall, the timekeeper plays a crucial role in ensuring that employee work hours and attendance records are accurately recorded and translated into payroll calculations, helping to maintain fair compensation and compliance with labor laws, union agreements, and company policies.
