Integrating Time Logs with Construction Crew Scheduling

Time tracking is a cornerstone of effective Construction Crew Scheduling. In South Africa, labour laws require accurate records of hours worked, overtime, and rest breaks. Manual logging is inefficient and error-prone.

  1. Automatic Time Logging – Workers check in via mobile or desktop.

  2. Geo-Tagged Clock-Ins – Confirm presence at designated job sites.

  3. Overtime & Break Tracking – Comply with SA’s labour regulations.

  4. Payroll Sync – Link timesheets to payroll systems for error-free processing.

Construction companies using Shifton can reduce disputes, prevent time theft, and optimise payroll operations with reliable time tracking tied to their Construction Crew Scheduling workflows.

Boost Efficiency with Smarter Construction Crew Scheduling

Tracking multiple construction teams across South Africa requires more than spreadsheets. Shifton’s real-time dashboard improves Construction Crew Scheduling by offering live workforce data and project progress metrics.

  1. Live Attendance Monitoring – Ensure every worker is accounted for.

  2. Productivity Reporting – Identify trends and underutilised teams.

  3. Task Management Tools – Assign and monitor site-specific workflows.

  4. Actionable Reports – Use real-time data to adjust staffing and timelines.

South African construction firms can reduce delays, enhance quality, and manage resources better with a powerful Construction Crew Scheduling system in place.
