Time and Attendance management.

Managing time and attendance is critical to your company’s operational performance. Attendance expectations should be communicated consistently and clearly. Written policies should have call-out procedures. And managers should document time off using a time off tracker. Engage! HR has developed an Attendance Tracker for our clients.

In addition, employers have to be in compliance with their state’s leave laws that provide job protection for employees.
