June 6, 2025

Managing Summertime Changes

Summer presents unique challenges for many businesses, from managing seasonal staff and interns to handling increased vacation requests. Staying organized is key to keeping operations smooth during the busy summer months.

 

Virtual TimeClock offers essential features designed to simplify your summer workload, helping you manage your time clock efficiently and stay ready for the summer rush.

 

Easily Add & Manage Summer Employees

Whether you're bringing on part-time staff, welcoming interns, or utilizing volunteers, Virtual TimeClock makes adding new users incredibly easy. Just like with your full-time employees, you can quickly setup temporary staff.

 

When seasonal work is finished, simply mark seasonal workers as inactive in Virtual TimeClock. This removes them from active time tracking while preserving their historical timecards. If they return next summer, reactivating their profile is a breeze, saving you significant time and effort.

 

Simplify Vacation & Holiday Pay Tracking

Summer is a prime time for employee vacations. With Virtual TimeClock's vacation tracking, you can effortlessly manage paid time off (PTO) requests. Easily confirm leave categories and awards are setup correctly for all users before the busy season.

 

Virtual TimeClock's leave reports simplify tracking vacation accruals and usage, giving you clear insights into employee balances. Plus, employees can access their own leave reports, empowering them to check their vacation and PTO balances themselves and easing the load on managers.

 

Streamline Communication with Built-in Messaging

Effective communication is vital, especially during busy seasons, Virtual TimeClock's integrated messaging feature provides a convenient and centralized way to communicate important time clock-related information directly between employees & managers.
