Time and attendance system helps sports clubs avoid administration

Showing just how out of control the amount of money sloshing about in football is, Portsmouth FC could have ended up in liquidation. The club have survived a High Court challenge from the taxman after HM Revenue & Customs had asked the court to block proposals that would have helped ‘Pompey’ out of administration. HMRC did this because it thought the CVA system was unfair as certain creditors could claim much more than others. Portsmouth, since relegated, in the 2009/10 campaign was the first-ever Premier League club to go into administration.

Time and Attendance technology will help sports clubs and other businesses manage their payroll better with its more efficient smart card clocking systems. Multi lingual versions are available and they are fully compatible with all working hours regulations. The inbuilt report generator makes it simple to get both real-time and archived information, while the versatile set up means you can create a wide range of daily working patterns, or shifts. The basic WinTA Lite system operates a single time clock and can record employee details for up to 250 people.
