What is BusinessHRM for construction & field?
BusinessHRM for construction and field teams lets crews check in from site on Android, a shared kiosk or a biometric device, tracks labour against each job, and feeds approved hours straight into payroll and client billing.
The paperwork between the site and the payslip
If one of these sounds like last month, the rest of this page is for you.
Paper timesheets and lost hours
Hours written on paper get smudged, delayed, or lost, so payroll runs on numbers nobody fully trusts.
No clear picture of who is on which site
Without a live view of crews and shifts, coverage gaps and no-shows only become obvious once the day is already short-handed.
Manual payroll from messy records
Turning scattered site hours into pay means days of rekeying, and every manual step is a chance for an error.
A day on site, start to payslip
What happens between the crew arriving and the money landing, with nobody retyping a timesheet.
- 1
The week before
The roster is already set
Shifts, rotations and who is on which job are planned in advance. Swaps go through a shift-change request, not a text message.
- 2
Arriving on site
Crews check in
From the Android app, a shared kiosk or a ZKTeco biometric device. Device and IP are captured, and location too if you turn that check on.
- 3
On the job
Hours land on the job
Time is tracked against the project for that job, so labour cost builds up where it belongs. Breaks are tracked as paid or unpaid.
- 4
End of the day
The rules apply themselves
Late, half-day, early-leaving and overtime rules run automatically, so the supervisor reviews exceptions rather than every line.
- 5
Pay period close
Payroll runs from approved hours
The pay run builds from approved attendance, overtime and leave. Payslips go to self-service and bank-ready files go to finance.
- 6
Billing the client
The job gets invoiced
Logged time and milestones on the job become the client invoice, with online payment built in.
From the roster to the pay run
What the office sees and what the crew carries. Real screens from the web and Android apps.
The month at a glance
Present, late, half day, leave and holiday for every person on one grid, with late and overtime rules already applied.
Leave approved from site
Supervisors approve or reject leave requests from the Android app, so a request does not wait until someone is back in the office.
A pay run from approved hours
Salary cycles, salary groups and net pay per employee. Hourly and salaried staff go in the same run, and payslips land in self-service.
How BusinessHRM helps construction & field
BusinessHRM is built for teams that are rarely at a desk. Crews check in from the Android app, a shared kiosk or a ZKTeco biometric device, with device and optional location captured. Shifts and rosters are set before the day starts, labour tracks against each job, and late, half-day and overtime rules apply themselves. Approved site hours feed payroll and client invoicing directly, with no paper in between.
- Timesheets you can trustVerified check-in replaces paper, so payroll starts from hours nobody has to second-guess.
- Know your coverage in advanceA live roster means gaps surface before the day starts, not halfway through it.
- Accurate job costingLabour tracked against each job makes cost and client billing right when the work is done.
Check-in from the job
Crews check in from the Android app, a kiosk or a biometric device, with device and optional location captured.
Shifts and crews
Schedule who works where, rotate shifts, and handle change requests with a record of who agreed.
Hours against jobs
Track labour against each job so cost and billing are accurate when the work is done.
Straight to payroll
Approved site hours feed payroll and client billing with no paper in between.
Run one crew on it for one pay period

Go deeper
The parts of BusinessHRM construction & field use most, in detail.
Does it work without a desk?
Yes. Crews check in from the Android app, a shared kiosk or a biometric device, and the hours land in the same workspace the office uses.
Can I verify where crews checked in?
Yes. Each check-in captures device and IP, plus location if you turn the location check on, so site attendance is verifiable rather than assumed.
Do you support biometric attendance devices?
Yes. BusinessHRM integrates with ZKTeco biometric devices for on-site punch-in.
Is there an iPhone app?
The iOS app is coming soon. The Android app is in Google Play review and launches on 20 October 2026. Until iOS is ready, iPhone users can use the web app in Safari or check in at a site kiosk.
Can I track labour against each job?
Yes. Hours track against the job, so cost and client billing are accurate when the work is done.
Does it feed payroll?
Yes. Approved attendance, overtime and leave flow straight into the pay run and client invoices, with no paper timesheets in between.
No more paper between the site and the payslip
