Keep Every Shift, Line and Worker Accountable

 Production does not stop when HR leaves the office. Timetera gives manufacturers real-time visibility into attendance, shifts, overtime and manpower across factory floors, production lines and multiple facilities.

Factory attendance visibility

1

Dashboard across every production site

Timetera is a cloud attendance and workforce management solution for factories and production environments. Employees clock in using AI face recognition or other supported verification methods, while attendance data is sent to a central dashboard for HR and management.

Timetera helps manufacturers monitor manpower, shift attendance, lateness, overtime and payroll-ready working hours across one or multiple facilities.

Under the lens

Why factory attendance gets complicated

Production environments operate very differently from a standard office. Multiple shifts, large workforces and constantly changing manpower requirements make manual attendance difficult to control.

 

Shift changes create congestion

Hundreds of employees may clock in or out within the same short shift-change window, creating queues when verification is slow.

Fingerprint verification can interrupt workflow

Factory employees may be wearing gloves or working with dirty, wet or worn hands, making contact-based verification less convenient during busy production shifts.

Overtime changes constantly

Production demand, urgent orders and machine downtime can extend working hours unexpectedly, making manual OT calculations difficult to reconcile.

Temporary workers increase headcount complexity

Contract, agency and temporary workers may join individual lines or production periods for only a limited time.

Restricted production areas need controlled access

Server rooms, engineering zones, laboratories, stores and sensitive production areas may require authorised access rather than open entry.

Management lacks live manpower visibility

Manual reports tell management what happened yesterday. Production teams need to know how many employees are actually present right now.

What Timetera solves on the production floor

Give operations, HR and management one verified source for shift attendance, worked hours, overtime and factory access.

 

Fast face recognition

Allow workers to clock in using AI facial verification without relying only on fingerprint scanning or shared cards.

Multi-shift attendance

Manage morning, afternoon, night, rotating and flexible shifts from the same system.

Overtime tracking

Calculate working hours and overtime from verified attendance records instead of manually rebuilding timesheets.

Real-time manpower visibility

See who has arrived, who is late and how many employees are currently clocked in across production locations.

Contractor & temporary workers

Add temporary, agency and contract staff into the same attendance environment without creating a separate manual process.

Restricted area access

Use supported Timetera devices to combine employee verification with door access at authorised factory areas.

One system across the factory

Apply the right attendance or access method to each part of the facility while keeping all records connected centrally.

 

Built around the way production actually runs

From the first clock-in to payroll, every attendance event becomes part of one connected workflow.

 

BEFORE SHIFT

Workers arrive

Employees verify their identity at the attendance terminal before entering the production area.

 

SHIFT START

Attendance syncs

Records flow into Timetera so supervisors or HR can identify absences and late arrivals.

 

DURING PRODUCTION

Management sees manpower

Review attendance without waiting for a manually prepared headcount or supervisor report.

 

END OF SHIFT

Hours become reports

Clock-out records feed working-hour, overtime and payroll reporting workflows.

 

BEFORE SHIFT

Workers arrive

Employees verify their identity at the attendance terminal before entering the production area.
