Systems like that are actually great for the employees, because every minute is accounted for and when you stay an hour longer at work you can expect to be paid for it at overtime rate.
- jandrese 7y agoI think you forgot the /s at the end.
- IMTDb 7y agoIn a previous company I worked for, they implemented a clock-in / clock-out system. The system "broke" after a month when employees asked for their overtime sheets. It was never replaced.

- crmrc114 7y agoExcept in the US exempt position are subject to pretty harsh restrictions. Just because a technical position is OT Exempt in the US that does not translate to the employer being allowed to request they work "OT" for free (Like asking you to +5/10 every week). In fact many large companies had been slapped by the DOL and forced to move those technical positions and even managerial in some cases to hourly due to systemic abuses. Dont ever let anyone tell you that you are defenseless as an OT exempt salary employee in a technical position. Contact a Lawyer if you feel you are being abused and your management refuses to fix the issues.
- Mountain_Skies 7y agoIt's weird that exempt employees can be required to clock in and out. My current employer does this but claims it for tracking capital vs operational expenses and has nothing to do with productivity or policy enforcement. I'm rather skeptical. One thing is for sure, the definition of what constitutes an exempt employee has expanded far beyond its original intent.
