Proactive attendance monitoring that prevents timesheet errors

Employees frequently forget to clock out at the end of their shift or forget to resume work after a lunch break, resulting in incomplete records and time-consuming end-of-month manual fixes. Automated reminders solve this problem at the root.

Jornadapp continuously checks active shift schedules and sends gentle push notifications to employees when their shift is due to start or end, as well as alerting managers to unexpected absenteeism.

Alert managers when a scheduled employee has not clocked in after a configurable grace period.

Frequently asked questions

Can alerts be received via email as well as push notifications?

Yes. Urgent manager notifications can be delivered via email, while staff receive instant push notifications on their phones.

Yes. You can establish allowed grace periods (e.g., 5 or 15 minutes) before an employee is flagged as tardy.
