A digital and objective system is required.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Do I have to record coffee or snack breaks?&#8221; custom_font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; custom_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; use_custom_heading=&#8221;true&#8221; custom_el_class=&#8221;h4&#8243;]Yes, if the company wants to deduct that time from the effective working day. A system like Woffu allows you to configure automatic breaks or require the employee to clock out and in for breaks, so that the calculation of hours worked is 100% accurate.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;What happens if an employee forgets to clock in\/out?&#8221; custom_font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; custom_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; use_custom_heading=&#8221;true&#8221; custom_el_class=&#8221;h4&#8243;]Forgetting does not exempt the company from its legal responsibility to keep the record. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s vital to have tools like Woffu, which send push notifications to the employee&#8217;s mobile to remind them to record their working day, encouraging the habit and reducing incidents.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;How long does the Woffu setup or implementation process take?&#8221; custom_font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; custom_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; use_custom_heading=&#8221;true&#8221; custom_el_class=&#8221;h4&#8243;]The implementation time may vary depending on the complexity of the company&#8217;s needs, but our goal is to ensure successful implementation within a maximum of 21 days.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Why is a good onboarding process important?&#8221; custom_font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; custom_use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; use_custom_heading=&#8221;true&#8221; custom_el_class=&#8221;h4&#8243;]A good Onboarding service is essential because it ensures that the transition to <a href=\"https:\/\/woffu.com\/es\/blog\/gestion-horario\/retos-del-control-horario-para-medianas-y-grandes-empresas\/\">our platform<\/a> is as smooth as possible and that everyone in your company can use Woffu effectively from the start.
