Key features
Built to eliminate the timekeeping headaches that waste management time.
Set the rules once. Let the software enforce the repetitive stuff. Managers step in when something is wrong—not every time somebody clocks in.
Geofencing
Define where mobile punches are allowed and keep location context with the punch.
Lunch controls
Support 30-, 45-, and 60-minute lunch workflows, lockouts, and lunch-rule enforcement.
Missed-punch prevention
Catch unfinished days and create exceptions before bad timecards become a payroll problem.
Expected clock-out
Show the employee or manager the expected out time based on hours worked and lunch requirements.
Correction requests
Employees can submit structured time-help requests instead of relying on texts or verbal reminders.
Payroll-ready calculations
Automatically separate regular, overtime, and total hours for selected employees and date ranges.
40 / 80 overtime modes
Use 40-hour weekly overtime rules or 80-hour selected-period rules to match your business workflow.
CSV export
Export payroll-ready hour summaries and raw punch detail when management needs the full record.
Admin dashboard
See who is in, out, or at lunch plus today, week, and pay-period progress from one place.
Messages + read receipts
Push operational communication to employees and see whether the message was actually viewed.
Offline-aware handling
Retry-safe punch handling helps prevent duplicate punches and supports more reliable kiosk use.

Useful for employees. Structured for management.
ForgeClock gives employees a fast, touch-friendly workflow on the front end while management gets the controls and audit trail it needs behind the scenes.
