Local payroll: scope to be confirmed with a specialistCurrency: UYUAlobri Time is time and attendance software in Uruguay that captures every punch from a facial recognition kiosk with liveness detection, from the iOS and Android app with geofencing and selfie, or from the web with approved IP addresses. In Uruguay the Ministry of Labor's Work Control Record documents staff schedules and breaks, and maximum hours differ between industry and commerce.
Each location in Uruguay can have its own shifts and devices, and HR sees in real time who is in, who is missing and which overtime needs approval before it reaches pre-payroll.
