Full platform

Everything your workforce operation needs

Built for teams that need more than a basic time clock — with the security controls and operational depth that modern shift-based businesses require.

Smart Time Clock

One-tap clock-in and clock-out with real-time status across your entire team. Automatic break tracking, overtime detection, and complete shift history.

Geofencing + Photo Proof

Require employees to be physically present at a job site before clocking in. Layer in photo capture at punch time to verify identity — no buddy punching, no guesswork.

Scheduling & Shift Control

Build and publish schedules across locations, assign shifts to employees or leave them open to claim, and manage recurring patterns with template support.

Payroll-Ready Calculations

Automatically compile hours, breaks, and overtime from approved time entries. Generate per-period payroll runs with full deduction and tax configuration.

Secure Employee Records

Store and manage sensitive employee documents — IDs, SSNs, contracts, resignation letters, resumes, and photos — in a structured, access-controlled vault.

Admin-Only Confidential Access

A dedicated confidential section protected by a special admin PIN. Sensitive information is visible for only 30 seconds per session — then automatically concealed.

Time Off / PTO / Sick Days

Employees submit requests, managers review and approve. Full PTO policy configuration, sick leave banks, and vacation accrual tracking — all in one place.

Team Chat & Push Notifications

Real-time messaging between employees, managers, and teams. Group chats, announcements, read receipts, unread badges, and web push notifications on Android and iOS.

Meetings with Video

Schedule internal meetings, manage attendees, send invites, and launch video calls directly from the platform — no external conferencing tool required.

Attendance Monitoring

See who is present, late, absent, or on break — across all locations in real time. Auto-generated attendance records synced from clock-in events.

Reports & Insights

Birthday reports, vacation summaries, sick day tracking, attendance analytics, labor cost breakdowns, and payroll exports — built in and ready to print.

Multi-Tenant / Multi-Role Controls

Full multi-tenant architecture with isolated data per business. Role-based access for admins, managers, and employees — each seeing only what they need.

Security first

Designed for businesses that take employee data seriously

Workivo is built for operations that handle sensitive employee information and need more than basic password protection. Access controls are deliberate, layered, and time-limited by design.

PIN-protected + time-limited access

The confidential section requires a dedicated admin PIN to unlock. Once accessed, sensitive data auto-hides after 30 seconds — whether the browser is active or not. No persistent exposure.

Admin PIN-gated access

A dedicated confidential section that only unlocks with a special PIN. Standard admin credentials alone are not enough — adding a layer of deliberate access control.

30-second visibility window

Once unlocked, sensitive fields — including SSNs, IDs, and private documents — are visible for 30 seconds only. They conceal automatically to limit exposure.

Role-based access control

Admins, managers, and employees each operate within their own permission layer. Managers cannot access employee confidential records. Employees cannot access payroll data.

Structured document vault

Employee documents are stored in a controlled, categorized vault — not a general file system. Each file type (ID, SSN, contract, letter) is handled with access intent.

Minimized exposure by design

Sensitive information is never visible by default. It must be explicitly unlocked, and it re-hides automatically. This limits both accidental and unauthorized access.

Audit-ready structure

Every clock-in, document upload, payroll run, and access event is logged. The platform is built with oversight in mind for businesses that take staff data handling seriously.

Who uses Workivo

Operational impact

Built to make workforce management less painful

These aren't vanity metrics. These are the real friction points Workivo is designed to address.

Reduce manual follow-up

Automated clock-in tracking, attendance sync, and PTO workflows eliminate the need to chase employees or cross-reference spreadsheets.

Cut payroll prep friction

Approved time entries feed directly into payroll calculations. No re-entry, no manual hour-counting, no formatting for a third-party tool.

Improve attendance accountability

Geofenced clock-ins and photo verification create a verifiable attendance record that removes ambiguity for managers and HR teams.

Centralize workforce operations

Replace five separate tools — time clock, scheduler, messaging, payroll, and documents — with one system that keeps everything in sync.

Limit exposure to sensitive data

Role-based access, PIN-gated confidential sections, and automatic 30-second visibility windows reduce the risk of unauthorized access to employee data.

Operate across multiple locations

Multi-tenant architecture means each location or business unit gets isolated data with centralized admin oversight — scale without losing control.
