Time & attendance · Guarding

Time and attendance for security guards, at every client site

Your guards take up their posts at many client sites, day and night, far from your offices. With EASY-STAFF they clock in from their phone on arrival, the GPS position is attached, and you get each guard's hours, site by site.

Your constraints

Why tracking guards' time is difficult

A guarding company sells hours of presence, and it has to be able to prove them.

Scattered posts

Every client is a different workplace, with no time clock.

Night shifts

Watches start in the evening and end the next morning.

Presence to prove

The client wants to know the post was manned, on time.

With EASY-STAFF

What EASY-STAFF brings to your guarding company

  • A clock-in point per client site, with nothing to install at the client's
  • Clock-in from the phone with the GPS position, mandatory for the guards you choose
  • Your clients' sites drawn on the map, with their zones
  • Night shifts counted towards the day they start
  • The report by site: the hours worked at each client
  • Night and weekly-rest hours classified by premium rate for payroll

Recommended time clocks

A time clock at the branch or the guard post

Guards who start their shift at the branch or at a large permanent site can use a terminal; the others clock in on their phone.

In practice

A night shift, from taking post to the report

  1. Taking post

    At 7 pm, the guard clocks in from their phone on arriving at the client's; the position is attached.

  2. End of shift

    Next morning they clock out: the shift counts towards the day it started.

  3. The check

    The manager finds the shift in the day's list, on the map and in the site report.

Frequently asked questions

Do guards have to install an app?

No. They clock in from their EASY-STAFF space, opened in the phone's browser.

Can the GPS position be made mandatory?

Yes, guard by guard: for those you select, a punch without a position is not recorded.

Do night hours have their own rate?

Yes. Overtime worked between 9 pm and 6 am is classified at its own rate, as Article 201 of the Labour Code provides.

Can we invoice clients from the report by site?

It gives the hours clocked at each site; the invoicing itself is done in your usual tool.

Can we see the software before deciding?

Yes: we run a demo on your own hours, sites and special cases. Request it here.
