Smart card clocking deals with complicated pay bands

It appears the credit crunch has bitten at one of TV’s most popular peak time shows. It has been hotly tipped that the pay structure for this year’s ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ has been altered so the competitors will only be paid per dance. It will ensure that if one the stars who dance with the professionals has leaden feet and is voted out early on, he or she does not get a big six-figure payment. Former boxer Frank Bruno is the latest celebrity name to be linked to this year’s show.

State of the art smart card clocking systems from Time and Attendance UK have no problems dealing with complicated or different pay bands. Features are available which can be implemented on your time and attendance system to take into account diversity with working rules. Job booking and job costing, extensive European Working Time Directive checking and reporting, and comprehensive user-definable working, patterns, rosters and shifts are among the additional options. The smart card technology reads through non-metallic items, enabling the cards to be kept inside a purse or wallet.
