Time and Attendance Solutions for Municipalities

No organization has more oversight than a municipality. In one way or another, municipalities report to every citizen. Budgets and efficiency are under perpetual scrutiny with each fiscal year, while customer service is also an organizational charter. WorkTech's time and attendance systems can help solve real problems that face local government organizations with its efficient time recording and data integration with existing municipal systems.

Managing a Diverse Workforce

The diversity of a municipal workforce rivals any other organization of its scale. A municipal workforce includes a wide array of employees that include attorneys, engineers, firefighters, police, clerks, teachers, garbage collectors, public works, technicians, and maintenance technicians. This workforce encompasses an equally diverse set of rules, union, and wage agreements that require the sharp attention of a municipal workforce management system.

A Single System for All Time and Attendance Data Entry

When a municipality can implement one time and attendance solution that is flexible enough to support the rules of all its workers, the payback can be counted in months. WorkTech Time™ Suite delivers value to municipalities by providing a single system for all time recording.

Managing Labor Costs

Labor is a significant cost to any municipality. Using the WorkTech Time Suite, cities and towns are able to manage the labor costs associated with every aspect of their daily operations. Workers take advantage of an easily customized user interface to enter time spent on work orders, tasks, and projects. The flexibility of WorkTech Time Suite allows administrators and managers to tailor time entry screens to each worker or role, presenting just the information needed while providing shortcuts to speed the task.

Cost Savings Justify WorkTech Time

Municipalities justify the need for an application like WorkTech Time through savings that include:
