A phone-based clock-in is only as good as the proof behind it. That's where GPS and geofencing come in.
Geofencing, simply put
You draw a boundary around each work location. When an employee checks in through the app, TimeChart verifies whether they're inside that boundary — turning a check-in into location-verified proof.
Why it matters
- Prevents buddy-punching and off-site clock-ins.
- Gives managers confidence in field attendance.
- Supports fair overtime and accurate payroll.
A note on privacy
Location is captured at the point of clock-in to confirm presence — not continuous background tracking. Employers should always inform staff about what's collected and why.
