Time and Attendance
Plan and manage your team's time - in one place
Say goodbye to manual data entry and standalone scheduling tools. Track time, create and share schedules, manage attendance, and seamlessly sync hours to payroll – all within the Gusto platform.
How Gusto worksCreate accountTime Tracking
Now your team can track time confidently.
Accurate time tracking as easy as a click (or tap).
Team members can clock in and out — or log hours all at once — in any web browser or the Gusto Wallet app (iOS and Android). And with Time Kiosk, you can turn any tablet into a time clock for clocking in and out.
Make flexible work easier for everyone.
From remote work to flextime to compressed schedules, the work week has changed. Our tools have evolved with the times, with geofenced work sites where employees can clock in and out.
Track remote work, not remote workers.
Time tracking should be about helping people make work time more productive, not monitoring them. That’s why our tools are collaborative by design, giving everyone on your team the ability to make changes to their recorded hours.
Scheduling
Create and manage schedules faster
Easily create, view, and share schedules in just minutes.
Minimize conflicts such as double-booking or leaving shifts uncovered. And quickly adjust schedules on the go to support those inevitable last minute changes.
Reduce costs
Get a birds eye view of your team and schedule to avoid overscheduling (and overtime payments!). Run workforce cost reports to better optimize your schedules and headcount planning.
Empower your team
Give your team the information and tools they need to manage their schedule. Set up notifications when schedules are published and include detailed instructions or reminders for each shift.
Project tracking
Project management complexity, simplified.
Turn planning into scheduled action.
Employees can track and tag their time spent on specific projects, helping you learn more about team productivity and task management.
Get clear analysis so you know your project is on track.
Track project progress and easily spot where workload, goals, and other elements need adjustment.
Support and respect your team’s time.
Collaborate across workspaces and track how projects take up employee time. See which tasks are bogging teams down early so you can pivot to solutions before your team gets off track.
Time off policies and requests
Simple PTO administration (even for complicated policies).
Spend less time managing time off requests and more time supporting your team.
Automate manual processes, save time, and comply with labor laws by design. Our customizable tools support complex time off policies and multiple types of time off requests.
PTO balances that update themselves.
Automatic time tracking means just that. As employees submit vacation or sick days and managers approve them, those hours automatically sync with payroll and calendars.
Make it painless to ensure everyone is getting the time off they need.
We calculate time off automatically and alert you of PTO accrual to simplify your accounting and ensure everyone is getting the chance to rest and recharge.
