1. A B U Y E R ' S G U I D E F O R N E PA L I B U S I N E S S E S Features to Look for in Time & Attendance Software What actually matters when choosing a system that fits Nepal's labor law, workforce, and business realities. Compliance Biometric & GPS Prepared for HR & operations decision-makers | Nepal Shift & Roster Payroll-ready Reporting
2. Why the Right System Matters Attendance touches payroll, compliance, and employee trust all at once — the wrong tool creates problems downstream. Legal exposure Payroll errors Missed exceptions Frustrated employees Nepal's Labor Act sets strict hour, break, and overtime rules — inaccurate records mean audit and dispute risk. Manual attendance-to-payroll transfer causes overpayment, underpayment, and disputed salaries. Late arrivals, missed punches, and unapproved overtime often go unnoticed until month-end. Employees lose trust when attendance and leave records aren't transparent or easy to verify. Time & Attendance Software | Buyer's Guide for Nepal 2
3. Must Handle Nepal's Labor Act 2074 Before comparing features, confirm the system can enforce these baseline rules automatically. 8 hrs / 48 hrs 30-min break 4 hrs / 24 hrs Maximum working hours per day and per week (Section 28). Mandatory rest after 5 continuous working hours. Overtime cap per day and per week, with employee consent. 1.5x pay Records required SSF-linked Statutory overtime premium the system should auto-calculate. Employers must maintain attendance & overtime logs for inspection. Attendance data should tie cleanly into SSF-based payroll reporting. Time & Attendance Software | Buyer's Guide for Nepal 3
4. 1. Flexible, Reliable Attendance Capture One method rarely fits an entire workforce — look for a system that supports several. Biometric devices GPS & geofencing Mobile self check-in QR / web punch Fingerprint or face recognition for fixed office locations — hard to falsify. Location-verified check-in for field staff, sales teams, and multi-branch offices. Employees clock in from the Pace HRMS-style mobile app, wherever they work. Fast, low-cost option for small offices or shared entry points. Time & Attendance Software | Buyer's Guide for Nepal 4
5. 2. Shift, Roster & Overtime Automation The system should manage schedules and enforce OT limits, not just log punches. Shift & Roster Management Overtime Compliance ▪ Multiple shift patterns and rotating rosters ▪ Auto-flags overtime beyond 4 hrs/day or 24 hrs/week ▪ Bulk roster assignment across departments/branches ▪ Captures employee consent for overtime work ▪ Shift swap requests with manager approval ▪ Calculates 1.5x premium pay automatically ▪ Holiday & weekend-aware scheduling ▪ Feeds verified OT data straight into payroll Time & Attendance Software | Buyer's Guide for Nepal 5
6. 3. Leave Integration & Exception Handling Attendance shouldn't live in a silo — it needs to reconcile with leave and flag problems early. Leave & Attendance Sync Exception & Alert Management ▪ Approved leave automatically reflects in attendance ▪ Flags late arrivals, early departures & missed punches ▪ No manual reconciliation between two systems ▪ Real-time alerts to managers and HR ▪ Half-day, short-leave & permission handling ▪ Configurable grace periods and rules ▪ Accurate present/absent counts for payroll ▪ Exception dashboard for month-end review Time & Attendance Software | Buyer's Guide for Nepal 6
7. 4. Reporting, Analytics & Payroll Integration Data is only useful if it's visible, accurate, and connects directly to salary processing. Reporting & Analytics Direct Payroll Integration ▪ Daily, monthly & custom attendance summaries ▪ Attendance, leave & overtime flow into payroll automatically ▪ Department- and branch-wise insights ▪ Eliminates manual data entry and calculation errors ▪ Trend analysis for absenteeism & punctuality ▪ Supports SSF, CIT & tax-linked payroll processing ▪ Exportable reports for audits and management ▪ Faster monthly payroll close Time & Attendance Software | Buyer's Guide for Nepal 7

9. 6. Security, Access & Support The features that protect data and keep the system running smoothly day to day.
