The problem
Why timesheets cost you money and time
In the cleaning sector, time recording is still often done on paper or in Excel. Timesheets are filled in retrospectively, retyped by hand, and lead to disputes about hours worked — with both your staff and your client.
- Notes are filled in retrospectively and from memory
- Transcribing data takes hours and leads to payroll errors
- Discussion on attendance and hours worked
- No real-time overview of who is working where
- Allowances and overtime are either omitted or estimated
- Budget per site quietly runs out of hand
More paperwork, higher labour costs and less control.
The solution · time tracking software
From timesheets to real-time, accurate hours
With the FacilityApps time-tracking app, staff can clock in and out on site — via the app on their own phone, by scanning a QR code or using NFC at the site, or via a wall-mounted terminal. The app can verify the location using GPS, so you can be sure that work has been carried out at the correct site.
Hours worked come in in real time and are compared against the schedule automatically. That keeps labour costs per site in view, lets you approve hours with a single click and exports everything to your payroll system. Reliable time tracking for your cleaning company, with nothing retyped.

Frequently Asked Questions
Good to know
How do cleaning staff clock in?
Employees clock in and out on site using the app on their own mobile phones, by scanning a QR code or using NFC at the site, or via a wall-mounted terminal. This allows you to record hours exactly where the work is being carried out.
Does the time-tracking app work offline?
Yes. Staff can clock in and out even when there is no connection. As soon as the connection is restored, the hours are automatically synchronised with the dashboard.
Does the app verify the location with GPS?
Yes. When clocking in, the app can verify your location via GPS, so you can be sure you’ve clocked in at the correct site. This prevents any disputes about attendance and hours worked.
Does the time-tracking system link to my payroll software?
Yes. You export approved hours to your payroll system, so that the payroll process runs more quickly and contains fewer errors.
Does it take into account allowances, breaks and overtime?
Yes. You record breaks, allowances and overtime in accordance with your own agreements and the collective labour agreement for the cleaning sector, to ensure that everything is paid out correctly.
Can I see planned against actual hours per site?
Yes. Compare planned against actual hours per site and per person in real time, so you can adjust budget and cover early.
Does time recording tie in with staff planning?
Yes. Time tracking sits on the same FacilityApps platform as staff scheduling, cleaning specifications and reporting, with no separate integrations and no double data entry.
