No; they typically squawk, caw, or screech and have no access to Twitter.  They are opportunistic and scavenge by any means possible for survival.

What does this have to do with time and attendance?  

Everything.  It only takes a few seagulls to ruin a good day . . . and so it goes with buddy punching and time theft. “Buddy Punching”, the act of requesting a co-worker to punch in or out for you when arriving late or leaving early, may very well be one of your business’s largest cost centers.

Lost productivity and the expense of paying wages for this lost time really does add up.  Here’s how:  let’s say you have 40 employees and pay them an average wage of $15 per hour.  If even 15% of your employees punch in 15 minutes early, or late and have a co-worker punch them in “on time” every day, over a five-day work week, that’s 15 hours of lost productivity per week in addition to paid work hours.

Okay, so you’ve lost time and wages . . . but what does that really mean to your bottom line?  Do the math.  $15 per hour, times 15 hours per week is $225.  $225 per week equates to $11,700 annually!
