timesheet mobile adds punch prompt geofencing technology Freedom Telecare’s Timesheet Mobile, an employee time clock and location tracking app for iPhone and Android, now includes Punch Prompt functionality. The new tool uses the GPS location features in smartphone apps to create a geofence around an employee’s punch-in location at remote work sites. The app monitors the location of employees while on the clock and prompts the employee to punch out if he or she leaves the work area. The app also creates a record for the time an employee leaves a work site and sends an email alert to the manager.

“Listening to our customer’s challenges, we understand that the most common error employees make when transitioning to a new mobile time clock solution is forgetting to punch out at the end of a shift. By capturing the employee’s work location, using a battery efficient means of monitoring their location, and providing a punch out reminder to the employee, Timesheet Mobile continues to add value by improving employee timesheet compliance,” said Freedom Telecare President Bob Drainville. “Customers in Energy Services, Security, Transportation, Healthcare, and Construction are seeing their employees rapidly transition from non-smartphones to smartphones, enabling us to provide innovative features like Punch Prompt.”

Punch Prompt provides workers and managers with real-time alerts and provides a timestamp entry on the web portal’s log sheet displaying the time of departure and jobsite information. The updated app is available on Google Play and iTunes.
