Use the GFOS time tracking software which will ensure compliance with the legal requirements for time tracking in the EU and individual countries. The time data is stored securely on servers in Germany in the cloud or as an on-premise solution at your location. At the same time, you simplify your HR management processes.
In 2019, the European Court of Justice ruled that the recording of working hours is mandatory for companies in all European member states. With time sheet software from GFOS, you can easily fulfill this documentation obligation. Recording to the minute enables working hours and break times to be stored securely. This also allows you to comply with the legally prescribed rest and break times. The GFOS time management system offers various options for recording working times on different end devices and at different locations and time zones. All data is stored securely, is immediately available online in the system and is always up to date.

The advantages of online time tracking software are obvious. It is useful for all companies and has been mandatory since the ECJ (European Court of Justice) ruling - regardless of the industry and size of the organization. In addition, employees can use any device with an internet connection to record and process their times. The manual workload for your HR department is reduced enormously by using a time tracking software: Time data is transferred digitally - eliminating the need for manual transfer and further processing in your payroll processes. In addition, you comply with important regulations about the attendance tracker, which have been mandatory since 2019 as a result of the ECJ ruling. This ruling refers to the Charter of Fundamental Rights and is fully supported by our software.
Our software solution has a general configuration standard that works for many companies. Information on the compatibility of the GFOS software can be found in our system requirements. These are standard requirements. If you have further or more individual requirements, we will find a solution together. Our IT experts will be happy to advise you on your project.
The GFOS software is hardware-independent, which means that we can also connect your company's existing hardware. In addition, we work together with the four leading hardware providers on the market to map your individual requirements as well as possible. For more information, please check out our page about workforce partner companies.
Time tracking software has been mandatory since the ECJ ruling in May 2019: This means that companies must provide a suitable method of recording. However, the legislation in Germany and the DACH region has yet to be amended and is currently under discussion. By using the GFOS time tracking software, companies are already on the safe side: All working times are processed to the minute and handled in compliance with the ECJ ruling.
Time data may only be viewed by the relevant persons themselves and by supervisors or administrators with the appropriate authorizations. You assign the appropriate authorizations individually within the GFOS software. This ensures that the data is secure against access by third parties. GFOS also has ISO27001 certification and therefore complies with important IT security and data protection standards.
Thanks to central storage and the comprehensive authorization system, all personal data is comprehensively secured in multiple ways. When using cloud-based time tracking software, you benefit from secure storage in the GFOS knownCloud in data centers with German server locations. If you use our on-premise solution, the data is stored at one of the company's locations. Our technology consultants will be happy to help you choose a secure and suitable system landscape during an individual IT infrastructure consultation. Your right to view the personal data stored for each employee is available at any time via a corresponding evaluation.
