WHY RETAIL FIELD TEAMS TEAMS USE CLOCKON

FREE OPTIONAL HOLIDAY PLANNER

Add holiday management for the staff who need it — with no extra charge.

Holiday Planner is included with ClockOn. Enable it for individual staff members so they can request leave, see their booked days and allowance, and request cancellations directly from the same app they already use for work.

Request holidays in ClockOn

Staff get a clear, responsive Holiday Planner showing allowance, approved leave, pending requests and remaining days.

Approve requests & cancellations

Requests go to the employee's existing line manager. Approved holiday cancellations also require manager approval before days are returned.

See who is off

The company Holiday Calendar gives managers an at-a-glance view of approved and pending leave across the team.

LONE & MOBILE WORKER SAFETY

Mobile store visits can include a safety checkout where needed.

Companies can enable timed safety checks for lone visits while keeping normal multi-store attendance simple for the rest of the workforce.

Supports your procedures. ClockOn provides timestamped records, alerts and workforce visibility that can support health & safety, lone-working and working-time processes. It does not replace your organisation's risk assessments, emergency procedures or legal duties.

SAFETY + WORKFORCE MANAGEMENT

The safety layer sits on top of the operational information the business already needs.

ClockOn helps companies protect staff while producing a more accurate record of the working day.

Working-hour visibility

Driving and work events contribute to daily totals so unusually long days can be identified.

Overtime records

Actual event times help make sure additional hours are visible and reach Payroll faster.

Accommodation

Multi-day workers can finish at accommodation instead of being incorrectly shown as home.

Payroll preparation

Authorised users can review hours, overtime, pay settings, sickness and absence information.

Journey context

Google Routes comparisons can help managers understand travel time and larger journey variances.

Client Delay

Record time lost to access or client issues with notes and supporting images where relevant.

STAFF PRIVACY

Safety visibility without constant surveillance.

ClockOn does not need to continuously follow a worker around. GPS is requested at important actions such as Setting Off, Arrived, Leaving and Finished, and at defined safety events where the company has enabled them.

This gives managers useful evidence while keeping the employee workflow clear and proportionate.

SEE THE REAL PRODUCT

Simple for staff. Detailed for authorised managers.

The field PWA keeps actions straightforward while Company Admin, HR and Payroll users get the information they need to manage the workforce.

FIELD STAFF APP

One store / site reference and one clear next action.

Retail field staff use straightforward buttons while ClockOn records the server time and requested GPS evidence behind the event.

COMPANY DASHBOARD

See the team without repeatedly calling the team.

Authorised users can see working, travelling, on-location, overdue, finished and accommodation status alongside hours and alerts.
