Small Business Applications Review: HotSchedules
January 12, 2012
If you are in the restaurant industry – or any highly dynamic field where schedules change quickly and constantly – you need a scheduling system that can match those demands.
We discovered HotSchedules after they started using our software for their own company’s time tracking needs. Obviously, we don’t have to worry about the dynamic schedules of the restaurant business here at Timesheets.com, but I wanted to check out their software anyway because a lot of our customers do. And boy, I’m glad I did. It is awesome software!

Employment Practices Liability
November 30, 2011Stringent record keeping is probably a company’s best defense against claims made by employees for payroll violations and allegations such as discrimination (age, sex, race, disability) and wrongful termination.
Cases against employers are on the rise in this country and it’s just not wise to assume that “it will never happen to me”. From time to time tenured employees turn on employers. Sometimes brand new employees quit and file complaints. And sometimes even potential employees file discrimination charges.
Keeping time records and human resources records can help protect employers in these cases.
