Use Case

Provide real-time visibility of staff, visitors, patients, and assets inside complex indoor spaces where GPS is unreliable. Enable faster redeployment of staff, optimise task distribution and shift planning, and improve emergency response with live evacuation and mustering visibility. Replace manual timesheets with location-verified clock-ins/outs to reduce payroll errors and fraud. Enforce access control and compliance with room/floor/zone-level rules and automated movement alerts. Analyse historical movement and space utilisation with AI to identify congestion points, idle time, safety risks, and layout improvements. Track high-value equipment (e.g., in hospitals) and support lone-worker safety with badges that can call for help and detect hard falls. Extend tracking outdoors via GPS (badges/mobile) for community or field-based work to confirm arrivals/departures.

Organisations need reliable, auditable time capture across all worker types (shift, part‑time, seasonal, contractors, agency, lone workers, hybrid/field) with minimal admin and fewer payroll errors. Sense Workplace’s Time & Attendance helps teams: 1) capture clock‑ins/outs via web, mobile, physical clocks, or passive indoor location; 2) auto‑verify attendance against scheduled shifts and zones to reduce disputes and buddy punching; 3) feed approved timesheets directly to payroll; 4) manage overtime, call‑outs, grace periods and custom patterns; 5) view live who’s on site or missing, support evacuation roll calls, and analyse lateness trends for compliance and workforce planning.

Target Audience

UK-based organisations with deskless, field-based, shift-based, or multi-site workforces that need verified attendance, safety, and operational visibility. Especially suitable for facilities management, care homes and healthcare, field services, construction and engineering, logistics/transportation, hospitality and catering, retail/wholesale, and other safety-critical or high-compliance environments. Scales from SMBs to complex enterprises; inclusive of workers without desks or company email.
