Efficient employee tracking for construction

July 14, 2021 Read time: 1 min

HCSS says that its new myField tool provides a mobile employee engagement and time tracking solution for heavy construction operations. The mobile solution allows workers to stay on top of their work while in the field or at the jobsite. The firm says that myField allows workers to document their own hours across various jobs, record safety observations, monitor meter readings and send maintenance requests, improving efficiency and productivity.

HCSS myField is designed for operators, labourers, flaggers, truck drivers, craftsmen, and office personnel. The tool allows crew members to clock in or submit their time and information about what they worked on that day. Once submitted, the foreman receives a copy and can review events and times for each employee. HCSS says that its myField tool integrates with the HCSS solutions suite of job management, safety, equipment, and dispatching software. The solution can also be used for individual time tracking of employees with the ability to log lunches, breaks, and can capture signatures, performing quick safety inspections on mobile devices. The tool can also note what employees have worked on and cost code their work, and can capture daily information from easy-to-answer questions, as well as recordunsafe conditions with photos, description, and severity.
