Time is capital. Scientific and reasonable management of employees working hours and attendance can better improve their work efficiency and performance, and fully mobilize their enthusiasm for work. HCM can help enterprises to grasp the accurate working hours and attendance information of employees in a more timely and comprehensive manner, efficiently record and evaluate the work efficiency and attendance results of employees, and continuously improve their performance. Employees can record, submit and view time and attendance information through self-service, while managers can have a clearer and more comprehensive understanding of the schedule and workload of each member of the team through subordinate timesheets and resource calendars, and quickly make better work arrangements.

Different industries, companies, and regions may have different working hours and cycles. HCM supports users to set working hours and attendance policies applicable to their enterprises, such as setting different work schedules for different administrative regions and different attendance assessment standards for different employment types. The system provides a flexible setting mechanism, so the user can quickly and easily set and select the required working cycle and start date. Enterprises can also set overtime hours, the submission policies of timesheets, the reporting policies of timesheets, the upper and lower limits of overtime hours, the conversion of overtime hours and wages, etc.
