West Lancashire District Council have approved a complete ban on smoking outside council premises. Now that other councils are adopting this policy, Simon Clark, from Smokers' lobby group Forest, said everyone was entitled to a break during work. He said: "Are they going to introduce clocking in and off for people who go on the internet, on Facebook, or people who want to have a cup of coffee?" He continued: "I am sure there are some smokers who abuse the situation and go out too often but if that is happening that is a failure of management."
Time and Attendance North West clocking recording software solves all your personnel issues. Individual and group absence planners are among the features which are generated after your employees clock in on smart cards. The Group Holiday Planner displays a whole year of absences at a time. It allows easy view of incidences of multiple absences, whether in the past or the future, making it an ideal management tool. Other working patterns can be created with the comprehensive user-definable system.
