Combatting Timesheet Fraud with Celayix

Eradicate timesheet fraud with Celayix’s Employee Scheduling and Time and Attendance Software, recovering up to $2,600 per employee per year. Our solutions address prevalent issues like inflation of work hours and buddy punching, ensuring fair and justified overtime allocation.

Inflation of Work Hours

Prevalence: Manual timesheets are prone to inaccuracies and can be easily manipulated, leading to inflated work hours and potential payroll disputes. Businesses relying on traditional time-tracking methods face this challenge frequently.

Solution: Celayix’s biometric time clocks offer a reliable solution by requiring employees to clock in or out using their unique biometric data, such as fingerprints or facial recognition. This ensures that only authorized personnel can record their work hours, significantly reducing the risk of fraudulent time entries.

Buddy Punching

Prevalence: In industries with outdated time tracking systems, such as punch cards or paper-based logs, buddy punching can be a significant issue. Employees may clock in or out for absent colleagues, leading to inaccurate attendance records and increased labor costs.

Solution: Celayix’s geofencing feature provides a practical solution to this problem by restricting clock-ins or outs to specific geographical locations. Employees can only record their work hours within the designated work site, minimizing the risk of unauthorized time entries.

Fair Overtime Allocation

Prevalence: Employees may incorrectly report overtime hours without proper oversight and monitoring, leading to unfair labor practices and potential legal issues for employers. This is particularly challenging for businesses with complex scheduling requirements.

Solution: Celayix’s Time Tracking Software and Scheduling Rules Engine address this issue by accurately tracking overtime hours and enforcing company policies. The software ensures that overtime is justified and allocated fairly, helping businesses maintain compliance with labor regulations.
