Time & Attendance for School Districts

 
 

When it comes to managing employee attendance, your school district has unique needs. You might have numerous bargaining agreements and pay policies across the district, or employees who work multiple jobs or shifts.

That’s why we made Time & Attendance, part of Frontline Absence & Time. Our solution is built specifically for K-12 – in fact, our commitment to education is right in our company name!

What Makes Time & Attendance Different

A flexible solution built for K-12

Generic time tracking systems just aren’t made for K-12. Frontline’s solution was built specifically for K-12 organizations, and is made to accommodate all of the unique details that go into managing employee attendance in a school district. You can create your own unique rules based on bargaining agreements and labor contracts, district policies, job classifications and more. Plus, you can track employee activity across multiple jobs and allocate funding sources — without making staff clock in and out for each position.

And because time tracking isn’t one-size-fits-all, we don’t require that you buy or upgrade expensive, proprietary hardware. Instead, our solution lets you capture employee time through electronic timesheets, a web clock, barcode scanners, magnetic card readers, proximity card scanners, our mobile app or even biometric scans. And because you have a wide variety of employees working across the district, you can even use different time-tracking methods for different employee groups.

Tried-and-true integration with payroll systems

How long do you spend transferring employee hours from paper timesheets to your payroll system? Our solution eliminates the need for easily-lost paper timesheets and lets you access the information you need, right at your fingertips. And because Time & Attendance integrates with most major payroll systems used by K-12 organizations, you won’t have to spend hours manually calculating and entering employee hours. That means you can say goodbye to expensive payroll mistakes while taking back your time.

Real-time visibility

Frontline Absence & Time brings visibility to what’s taking place in your classrooms. Unlike other solutions, at any point in time you can quickly identify if you have a teacher or sub in your classrooms. Where there are gaps, you can take action to find a replacement or provide communication to the staff and students.

An easy-to-use mobile app

You don’t want to be tied to your desk all day, but work still needs to get done. Frontline Absence & Time lets you manage employee attendance from your mobile device. As an administrator, you can easily view and approve (or deny) absences from your phone, see who is absent and why, check daily status reports and view 3-day trends.

And for your staff, our mobile app allows employees to check their own leave balances, submit timesheets and clock in or out based on administrator-approved parameters.
