Built for UK care and shift-based teams

Capture worked time

Record hours on mobile or desktop, with defined clock events where needed.

Apply work rules

Keep breaks, overtime and hour limits consistent with your configured process.

Approve time and leave

Review exceptions, timesheets and holiday requests before the pay period closes.

Prepare payroll inputs

Pass approved, explainable time and leave records into Workmax Payroll.

ONE APPROVED RECORD

Stop rebuilding payroll from timesheets, messages and holiday spreadsheets

Workmax connects the records managers already need to review before payday.

Managers chase missing timesheets

Late hours, missing breaks and corrections arrive through separate forms and conversations.

Holiday approvals live elsewhere

Requests and balances become detached from the employee and the pay period they affect.

Payroll reconciles everything again

Regular hours, overtime and absence are rebuilt instead of reviewed from approved source records.

Workmax gives operations, managers and payroll one approved record of what was worked and what time was taken off.

CLOCK-IN TO PAYROLL

A REAL PAY-PERIOD STORY

Friday afternoon without the payroll scramble

A care worker records 32 regular hours and four overtime hours. They also have one approved holiday day. Their manager reviews one missing break, approves the correction and confirms the leave record. Payroll receives the approved hours and absence information without rebuilding the week from separate systems.

Employee

Knows what hours and leave were recorded.

Manager

Reviews the exception instead of checking every entry.

Payroll

Receives approved inputs with a traceable history.

Owner

Gets fewer disconnected corrections and less administration.
