Executive Summary
Inaccurate time tracking is one of the biggest hidden costs in workforce management. From payroll disputes to inflated labor costs, traditional methods often fail to capture the truth.
A leading construction company faced these challenges head-on—struggling with buddy punching, manual entry errors, and missed clock-outs. By adopting NextGen’s Biometric Time Tracking System, the company eliminated inaccuracies, streamlined payroll, and gained better control over its hybrid workforce—all while keeping its existing BambooHR workflows intact.
Why Traditional Time Tracking Fails
Many businesses, especially those with field staff, struggle with:
- Buddy Punching: Employees clocking in for each other, driving up labor costs.
- Manual Errors: Incorrect entries by staff that require corrections later.
- Missed Clock-Outs: Inflated hours leading to payroll discrepancies.
- Limited HR Integration: Systems like BambooHR manage salaried employees well but fall short for distributed, shift-based teams.
These challenges don’t just affect payroll—they damage compliance, accountability, and trust within the organization.
The Solution: Biometric Time Tracking
NextGen Workforce delivered a biometric time tracking system built to stop these issues at the root. The solution included:
- Biometric Verification
Facial recognition and fingerprint scans ensured only the right employees could clock in or out, eliminating buddy punching. - Real-Time Sync with BambooHR
Every punch updated instantly, giving managers accurate and current attendance data. - Automatic Clock-Outs
If employees forgot to clock out, the system corrected it automatically to prevent over-reported hours. - Preserved HR Workflows
Salaried employees stayed on BambooHR approval flows, while field workers gained accountability with live biometric tracking.
This combination meant better oversight without disrupting existing processes.
The Results: Payroll Accuracy and Accountability
The benefits were immediate:
- Payroll matched reality—no more inflated hours.
- Buddy punching disappeared—biometrics closed the loophole.
- HR efficiency improved—no manual corrections, fewer disputes.
- Better workforce visibility—managers tracked field staff with confidence.
By integrating directly with BambooHR, the company kept its familiar HR system but gained the accuracy and accountability it was missing.
Why Biometric Time Tracking Matters for Every Business
Whether in construction, healthcare, logistics, or retail, the challenges are the same:
- Costly payroll errors.
- Compliance risks from inaccurate records.
- Difficulty managing hybrid or distributed teams.
Biometric time tracking provides a single source of truth—accurate, real-time, and tamper-proof.
