Clocking software could benefit workers in stressful jobs

A Birmingham based Gulf War hero has been kicked out of the Army while on sick leave – and told that he owes £8,000 in wages. Corporal Darren Clemie was signed off sick in 2005 after he and colleagues were accused of gun smuggling and drug possession while in Basra. He was acquitted but remained on sick leave and on full pay until the Army stopped paying him without warning, and informed him he had been discharged in a phone call. He said: “I was cleared of any involvement in the arms and drugs case. But I believe the Army thinks I am a bad penny.”

Employers whose workers are in stressful jobs need to keep on top of matters of employee hours and absences. Time and Attendance Midlands, the premier suppliers of Time and Attendance systems in central England, including Birmingham, can provide you with a complete smart card time clocking system.

It comes complete with EU Working Time Directive software. The system is simple to use and provides a highly secure way of monitoring your employees’ time and attendance clocking data, including what effect staff levels have on production and what the optimal staff level is.
