Employee time tracking... sometimes it feels like you can't live with it, and you can't live without it. It's a vital part of school district management, no doubt—but unfortunately, most employee time tracking "solutions" just don't cut it for K12.
With 80 percent of a district's budget going towards employee compensation, accurate time tracking is a big deal. But the tools and processes to oversee the allocation of these resources are often antiquated.
Many school districts are wrangling outdated time-tracking software that's cumbersome, difficult to use, and doesn't work well with your other systems. Others are still shuffling paper time sheets, despite the risks of data entry error, fraud, and inefficiency.
