ConstrucTech, in a 2018 study, reported that approximately 40% of construction companies still use paper-based time and attendance systems.
Some businesses can’t let go of outdated practices, even with modern alternatives available. According to FinancesOnline:
Researchers at the University of Utah revealed a 40% error margin using “paper time and attendance” methods in the construction industry.
Furthermore, inaccurate paper time cards exacerbate problems when tracking expenses and revenue; this affects timely payments.
Additionally, reading handwritten time cards can create hours of extra work for accountants; this leads to more mistakes, both in the field and in the main office.
Lastly, if the government requires a company to use Certified Payroll, submitting weekly payroll documents that adhere to federal standards cultivates errors and adds stress.
Time fraud costs money. From the FinancesOnline report '72 Critical Time Tracking Statistics: 2021 Market Share Analysis & Data':
