Construction time clock with QR, PIN, kiosk, and GPS records
The only crew on payroll is the crew actually on-site.
Foremen open the dashboard, tap SCAN, and check in their entire crew — including time-only workers — with a jobsite QR code or a 4-digit PIN. Every clock event is stamped against the site's GPS radius, so buddy-punching, off-site hours, and phantom labor stop before they hit payroll.
GPS Geofence
Radius enforced per jobsite. Outside the fence = no clock.
Jobsite QR Scan
Foreman scans workers in from one phone, one tap.
4-Digit PIN Backup
For non-smartphone workers — still GPS-bound.
Payroll-Ready Hours
Auto-rolls to Gusto / ADP exports. No spreadsheet.
Safety runs through every clock-in.
A verified head-count on-site is the foundation for toolbox talks, emergency roll-call, OSHA 300/301 injury logs, and incident reporting. If an incident happens, DropShield already knows who was on the fence, what equipment they were assigned, which inspections they signed, and when they clocked in — signed, timestamped, GPS-tagged.

The time clock is where profit bleeds out silently.
Every specialty contractor we've talked to has the same three problems: people clocking somewhere they aren't, day laborers who never make it onto the timesheet, and payroll built from memory on Friday afternoon. DropShield puts the foreman in charge of clock-in — on-site, in 90 seconds, with a signed record you can defend.
Buddy-punching & drive-time padding
Workers clock in at the shop, drive an hour, then clock in again on-site. You're paying for windshield time and phantom labor before boots even hit the ground.
"When did they actually get here?"
No one knows when the crew truly arrived. Timesheets get built from memory on Friday afternoon and nobody trusts the numbers.
Payroll leaks nobody can prove
5 workers × 15 minutes of slop per day × 5 days = a full crew-day of unbillable labor every week. Multiply by 50 weeks. That's a truck payment.
Time-only workers get skipped
Day labor and rotating crew without a smartphone or a company login end up on paper — then in a shoebox — then in a spreadsheet the following Monday.
The foreman runs the crew — from one phone, on the jobsite.
No app for every worker. No lost PINs. No arguing about drive time. Time clock is a foreman ceremony now — and the payroll, safety, and jobsite records that come out of it are all signed, timestamped, and GPS-locked.
One green SCAN button on the dashboard
The foreman opens the app, taps SCAN, and points the phone at each worker's badge — or types a 4-digit PIN for time-only workers. Whole crew clocked in from one device.
GPS geofence enforces "on-site"
A clock-in only counts inside the jobsite's radius. Outside the fence = the app blocks it. Drive-time and off-site hours stop before they touch payroll.
Accountability built into the roster
The on-site roster is live — you see who's here, who isn't, and when each person landed. If a hazard hits, roll-call is already done. If a customer questions hours, the record is signed and GPS-tagged.
Foreman runs the whole crew in 90 seconds
Instead of 6 workers each fumbling with their own phone, the foreman handles clock-in as a single ceremony — faster start, better adherence to schedule, no missed jobsite arrivals.
Mount a tablet and the whole crew clocks itself in.
Not every crew runs off phones. DropShield turns a tablet at the shop door, the site gate or the job trailer into a dedicated clock station — locked to that location, with no access to the rest of your company's data.
Badge scan or 4-digit PIN
Workers scan their badge at the tablet or punch a PIN. Nobody needs a smartphone, a company email address, or a password they'll forget.
Locked to the station's site
The tablet is set up for one location, so punches land on the right jobsite automatically instead of whichever job somebody picked from a list.
Whole crew through in minutes
One device, a line of workers, and a punch each. No supervisor standing there building a list on paper at 6:00 a.m.
Missed punch-outs get flagged
When someone walks off without clocking out, the entry is marked instead of silently paying — or silently shorting — the hours.
My timecard
Each person can review the hours behind their record.
Punches, shift splits, assignments, and flagged clock-outs stay visible instead of disappearing into a weekly spreadsheet.
Team timecard
Managers see labor beside the work it supports.
Compare paid hours, billable-hour visibility, jobsite assignment, and missing punches before sending clean records downstream.
One scan feeds jobsites, worker scoring, AI coaching, work orders, safety, assets, and fleet — no double entry, ever.
