For companies and businesses across the globe – construction, retail, healthcare, hospitality, and more – a poorly managed timekeeping process will only cost them money, time, and effort. This is why it is crucial for businesses to consider investing in the right timekeeping platform like Fareclock that is set out to bring accuracy, accountability, and clarity into team operations.
Here are the five (5) must-have Fareclock features that every business, enterprise, or organization must adopt to achieve high efficiency and excellence in its workforce operations.
Feature 1: Facial Recognition for Secure Clock-ins
Leverage Fareclock’s robust facial recognition technology that is built with anti-spoofing measures that automatically detects attempts of using photos, videos, or other spoofing methods, blocking dishonest and fraudulent clock-ins before they happen. This eliminates buddy punching, prevents time theft, and enhances security without adding another layer of complexity for workers and administrators.

How to Use This Fareclock Feature: Workers simply need to look at their personal mobile device, tablet, or kiosk. Make sure they position themselves and the device around good lighting spots for ultra-fast recognition and instant verification. Failed facial scans or mismatches are flagged for review for administrators through the Facial Recognition Failure Window on the organization dashboard.

Feature 2: GPS Tracking & Geo Fencing
Administrators can set up virtual boundaries or geo fences around job sites to validate worker clock-ins and assign specific job site locations to teams or individual employees. Ideal for multi-site setups or mobile teams, this feature allows real-time GPS check-ins and ensures workers are on-site when recording attendance, avoiding disputes and providing transparent location records.

How to Use This Fareclock Feature: Administrators can use varying geo-fence sizes to suit different environments (utilize smaller or tighter geo fences for indoor offices and larger geofences for outdoor construction sites) or set a polygon- or circle-shaped geofence. Managers or supervisors can also receive alerts for off-site punches or location anomalies that require immediate attention.
