Construction companies run several job sites at once, with crews that change by the week and supervisors who are rarely in the office. EZTime brings every site into one system. Workers clock in at the site entrance with an NFC tag, a tablet kiosk at the gate or the mobile app with GPS location. Superintendents see who is on site in real time, and office staff get hours already split by project and role. Your pay rules, including overtime, breaks and shift differentials, are set up once, and EZTime flags exceptions before payroll. The app works in multiple languages including English and Spanish, so every crew member can clock in without help.
An NFC tag is mounted at the gate on day one. Workers tap their phones on the way in, and the punch is recorded against that site and project.
The superintendent opens the live attendance view and sees exactly who is clocked in on each site, including late arrivals and no-shows.
A finisher leaves one project at noon for another across town. Clocking in at the second site splits the day's hours between the two projects automatically.
On Friday the office reviews overtime and break alerts, fixes missing punches with manager approval and exports payroll-ready hours.

Under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, non-exempt employees must receive overtime pay of at least one and a half times their regular rate for hours worked over 40 in a workweek. Some states add their own rules; California, for example, also requires daily overtime after eight hours in a workday. Read our guide to FLSA overtime rules for the basics. Public projects bring extra requirements: contracts covered by the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts require prevailing wages and weekly certified payrolls, and many states have their own prevailing wage laws. Check the requirements for each contract with your payroll provider or counsel. EZTime supports this work by giving you accurate hours by project and role that you can export for your payroll and reporting process. Accurate punches also make corrections easier; see how to handle missed punches.
Workers can tap an NFC tag at the site entrance, use a tablet kiosk at the gate, or clock in from the EZTime mobile app with GPS location. QR codes and SMS attendance reporting are also available.
