Time & Attendance Overview

Laudio receives time and attendance data from your organization via a data feed from the T&A platform. Laudio then surfaces that data, analyzes it to pick up on key trends, and turns it into actionable steps for leaders.

Benefits include:

  • Viewing T&A data in one central location included unscheduled absences, late clock-ins or missed punches.
  • Actionable trends surfaced for you as the leader in the form of nudges to help you quickly checkin with the team member.
  • Easily filter by time period, including past pay period, last 30, 60, 90, 180, or 365 days, and set a default view

How to action in the Time & Attendance workflow

  1. Click on Time & Attendance in the left navigation panel of your Laudio account

Search, filter, and set your default view.

2. Use the "Take Action" buttons to email staff, view more details, or copy this information.

How do you calculate Time & Attendance data?

  • You can access calculation methodology within Laudio by clicking on the following icon:

Unscheduled absences:

  • Only first shift is included if there are many in a row. If an employee has an unscheduled absence, then works a shift, and then has another unscheduled absence, both would be counted

Missed punch / No show:

  • Any shift having missed punch / no show is counted

Arriving late or leaving early:

  • Only shifts where the shift start/end time is outside of their worked department’s standard shifts and associated grace periods are included
  • If a single shift has both a late arrival and leave early event, only the late arrival will be shown
  • Excluded are:
    • Any shift with a "low census" pay code
    • Any shift where training, administrative, or meeting time accounts for >50% of total hours worked

Excluded from all events:

  • Any shift with Orientation pay codes
  • Any shift that cannot be matched to a known worked shift (these shifts are tagged as "Unknown" shift type elsewhere in Laudio)
  • Any shift that is >50% a scheduled absence (e.g. PTO)
  • Any employee that is not currently active (e.g. a terminated employee)

Worked shifts are matched to standard shifts by the following logic:

  • The actual punch in / punch out time are compared to all standard shifts for the employee's worked department
  • Shifts are only matched to a standard shift if:
    • The start time is within 60 minutes of the standard shift start time
    • The end time is no greater than 30 minutes early (up to 5 hours later than end time is allowed)
    • The exception to this is if a low census pay code is in place, in which case these criteria is ignored
