TMS System - time and attendance modules designed to measure, analyse and manage employees' working time, and to help deploy human resources more efficiently.

Operating a time and attendance system offers many benefits for employers who are profit-driven & people-focused. Making your
payroll department, supervisors and managers spend hours manually calculating paid time is simply a waste of valuable resources - and a thing of the past. Knowing which members of staff are on site, what time they arrive and leave, and their current and future tasks and locations is essential for effective management of
labour expense and people.
Planning your resources is key to a business's success. So too is keeping your employees safe and free from risk. For these and many other reasons, it is vital to have accurate and accessible time & attendance information about the people in your organisation.
Take a look below to find the key benefits and features of our TMS products. Click here to see whether your version of our software has these features.

Benefits
Streamline Administration
It can take between two and five minutes to process each time sheet your business generates? TMS Time and Attendance effortlessly handles your work time data no matter how many work patterns you run. Any anomalies can be dealt with quickly by the most appropriate person - often an immediate team or line manager. This provides accurate data for your payroll and reporting in a fraction of the time it takes to compile manual data.

Manage Absence
Our Time and Attendance system provides you with high quality raw data to begin a successful absence management initiative. You will be able to answer questions like: What is the biggest cause of absence? Which departments are the best and worse performers? What effect are new procedures having? In addition it provides you with powerful pre-defined reports like the Bradford Factor to help you target your efforts on those individuals whose absence costs your company most.
Proactive Rostering
TMS can take the pain out of producing cost effective work schedules. You can drag and drop available employees into a pre-defined template, with the software keeping track as you go. You can receive automatic warnings if you do not meet staffing or health and safety rules for that shift, or if an individual is approaching Working Time Directive limits. Running "what if" scenarios allows you to see the impact of changes to the roster and identify the best possible options. Then you can duplicate the roster as often as is required or plan each period on the fly.

Manage Multiple Sites
Mitrefinch Time and Attendance offers true multi-site capability. Preferences can be defined at administration, user and site level. This allows you to define and manage the system centrally, but allows your satellite sites to focus solely on the information that is relevant to them. This provides you with the perfect balance of flexibility and control.
Many employers appreciate the benefits that offering flexible working arrangements can bring, but are a little daunted at the prospect of administering and managing the new way of working. TMS Time and Attendance helps both you and your employees get to grips with flexible working, providing easy to use flexi-balance checkers and visual planners.
