Time and Attendance network uses a specific shift on public holidays

As many as 10 jobs may go at BAE Systems’ head office in Farnborough, Hampshire as the defence firm plans to cut hundreds of jobs overall. BAE blamed reductions in orders required by the Ministry of Defence. Rehana Azam, national officer of the GMB union, said that BAE has “a highly experienced and skilled workforce and these job cuts are yet another blow to manufacturing. Representations are being made to MPs to see what can be done to retain skills within BAE Systems.”

Installing a Time and Attendance Southern automatic contactless smart card recording clocking network will cut overheads and improve productivity. It allows the setting up of ‘Groups’ or sequences of shift patterns. AutoSelect Groups have multiple shift patterns available per day. Here, our WinTA system will automatically select the most appropriate shift depending on when an employee starts work. Each group can be set up to override the normal pattern and use a specific shift on public holidays.
