Plugging the Cash Leaks: Case #3

Automation - The Best Plumber's Helper

CASE # 3 - Manual Time Card Preparation

The average payroll clerk spends 7 minutes per timecard each pay period:

  • Preparing and handling timecards

  • Computing timecard totals

  • Verifying timecard totals

  • Computing shift and department totals

  • Reconstructing lost or damaged timecards


The Cost: Preparing 100 timecards will take an estimated 11.67 hours to complete. Therefore, at an average clerical wage of $15.00 per hour, timecard preparation would cost $175.05 per pay period.

Automation cuts timecard handling down to seconds saving ANOTHER $170 per pay period – that’s $680 if you pay weekly!
