FOR THE COMPANY

Manage risk, hours and field operations with better evidence.

Remote-site visibility

Confirm when staff set off, arrive at infrastructure or customer sites and safely leave.

✓

Timed lone-work checks

Use expected site duration where an individual worker is attending alone.

✓

Overdue alerts

Escalate an on-site visit to the nominated line manager when the worker has not checked out as expected.

✓

Working-hour monitoring

Include driving, site work and call-outs when reviewing long working days.

✓

Accommodation status

See which workers have finished at accommodation during multi-day or remote assignments.

✓

Overtime and payroll

Produce clearer records of standard hours, overtime, travel and absence.

FOR STAFF

A simple app that protects the worker as well as the timesheet.

Utilities workers get a clear record of difficult journeys, long call-outs and remote-site time while keeping a safety connection with the office.

✓

Remote arrival is confirmed

GPS-verified arrival gives management reassurance that you reached the site.

✓

Long lone jobs can be monitored

An expected site duration gives the office a reason to check in if the job runs much longer than planned.

✓

Overtime is not lost

Emergency work and late finishes are recorded from real event times.

✓

Travel is captured

Long journeys are part of the working-day record.

✓

Accommodation is recorded

Multi-day assignments can finish at accommodation rather than incorrectly showing Home.

✓

Less paperwork

Job/site references and simple actions replace repeated manual time entry.

FREE OPTIONAL HOLIDAY PLANNER

Add holiday management for the staff who need it — with no extra charge.

Holiday Planner is included with ClockOn. Enable it for individual staff members so they can request leave, see their booked days and allowance, and request cancellations directly from the same app they already use for work.

ClockOn Holiday Planner shown on desktop and mobile

Request holidays in ClockOn

Staff get a clear, responsive Holiday Planner showing allowance, approved leave, pending requests and remaining days.

Approve requests & cancellations

Requests go to the employee's existing line manager. Approved holiday cancellations also require manager approval before days are returned.

See who is off

The company Holiday Calendar gives managers an at-a-glance view of approved and pending leave across the team.

LONE & MOBILE WORKER SAFETY

Remote and customer-site work can have an expected safety checkout.

Where a utilities worker is attending alone, ClockOn can monitor the expected duration and alert a line manager when they remain recorded on site beyond it.

Supports your procedures. ClockOn provides timestamped records, alerts and workforce visibility that can support health & safety, lone-working and working-time processes. It does not replace your organisation's risk assessments, emergency procedures or legal duties.

SAFETY + WORKFORCE MANAGEMENT

The safety layer sits on top of the operational information the business already needs.

ClockOn helps companies protect staff while producing a more accurate record of the working day.

Working-hour visibility

Driving and work events contribute to daily totals so unusually long days can be identified.

Overtime records

Actual event times help make sure additional hours are visible and reach Payroll faster.

Accommodation

Multi-day workers can finish at accommodation instead of being incorrectly shown as home.

Payroll preparation

Authorised users can review hours, overtime, pay settings, sickness and absence information.

Journey context

Google Routes comparisons can help managers understand travel time and larger journey variances.

Client Delay

Record time lost to access or client issues with notes and supporting images where relevant.

STAFF PRIVACY

Safety visibility without constant surveillance.

ClockOn does not need to continuously follow a worker around. GPS is requested at important actions such as Setting Off, Arrived, Leaving and Finished, and at defined safety events where the company has enabled them.

This gives managers useful evidence while keeping the employee workflow clear and proportionate.

SEE THE REAL PRODUCT

FIELD STAFF APP
