OnTheClock Award Winning Time Tracking

If you’re not tracking it, you’re losing it.

Security personnel monitor CCTV feeds while reviewing employee punch-in data on a time tracking system.

Instant visibility into employee hours and labor costs.

One missed shift can cost you a contract. Stop guessing and start every shift with transparency and control.

  • Live GPS punch-ins show exactly who’s on-site the moment they clock in. No blind spots, no chasing, no guessing.
  • Instant alerts identify no-shows. You’ll know who’s missing before the client does.
  • Fill gaps quickly to remain compliant and keep your reputation intact.

Accurate Hours You Don’t Have to Fix

Payroll shouldn’t feel like damage control. Stop fixing timecards by hand and start trusting the numbers from the start.

  • Accurate, digital timecards guarantedd every officer is paid for the hours they actually worked. No more disputes or awkward conversations.
  • Spot overtime overages before they become a problem, even when guards swap shifts or stay late on site.
  • Send hours straight to payroll or a client without digging through paper logs or correcting totals.

Fill Every Post Without Rebuilding Everything

Scheduling security shifts shouldn’t take all day. Stop juggling texts and spreadsheets just to keep every site covered.

  • With a drag-and-drop shift builder, reassign posts in seconds when a guard calls out, eliminating the need to start from scratch.
  • See who’s free to work before you even reach for your phone.
  • Officers get notified right away through instant schedule updates, so no one can say, “I didn’t know I was on.”
