What operations managers say
From firms managing 5 staff to 300 — across security, cleaning, and logistics.
★★★★★
We had staff signing in for each other constantly. tyma's QR system killed that overnight. Every clock-in is now timestamped and location-verified. Our payroll bill dropped 6% in the first month.

Security Services · 140 staff
★★★★★
We used to spend Friday mornings chasing timesheets from 12 sites. Now I open one screen on Monday and everything is there. What took half a day now takes 20 minutes. I cannot overstate what a difference this has made.
👩‍💼

Facilities Management · 60 staff
★★★★★
The punctuality tracking alone is worth the subscription. For the first time I have actual documented evidence of lateness patterns to use in performance reviews. Two disciplinary cases closed cleanly within weeks of going live.

Who It's For
Built for businesses with people in the field
If your staff are paid by the hour, by attendance, or work across multiple sites — tyma was designed for you.
🔒

Security & Guarding Firms

Deploy officers across multiple client sites. Track SIA licence expiry, punctuality, and shift hours in real time. Manage rosters without spreadsheets.

🧹

Cleaning & Facilities

Staff clock in at the client's location via QR code. HR sees exactly who arrived, when, and for how long — without needing a supervisor on site.

🏗️

Construction & Labour

Site workers clock in at the gate. Automatically records attendance, flags late arrivals, and generates payroll-ready timesheets.

🚐

Logistics & Distribution

Drivers and warehouse staff clock in from any device. Multi-depot support. Real-time visibility of who is on-shift across all locations.

🏥

Healthcare & Care Homes

Nursing, care assistants, and support staff on rotating shifts. Track scheduled vs. actual hours. Ensure compliance without the admin burden.

🎪

Events & Hospitality

Temporary and zero-hours staff for events, venues, and hotels. Flexible enough for last-minute rosters. Accurate enough for payroll.

Benefits
Why businesses switch to tyma
Every feature exists to save your managers time, protect your business, and give your staff a better experience.

Eliminate time theft & buddy punching

Site-specific QR codes ensure staff can only clock in from the correct location. GPS capture adds a further verification layer.

📊

Real-time attendance visibility

See who is clocked in, at which site, the moment it happens. No end-of-week timesheets. No phone calls to check attendance.

💷

Accurate payroll, automatically

Every shift is recorded to the minute. Export clean timesheets directly to your payroll software. No manual calculations, no disputes.

🎯

Punctuality tracking & reporting

Late arrivals are flagged automatically against each employee's scheduled start. Punctuality scores build over time for performance management.

📱

No app download required

Staff clock in from any smartphone browser by scanning a QR code. Nothing to install. Nothing to log in to at the door.

🔐

Complete self-service for staff

Shifts, contracts, holiday requests, messages, and account settings — all accessible from each employee's personal dashboard.

🏢

Multi-site, multi-team ready

Unlimited locations, each with its own QR code. Scales from 5 to 500 staff with no additional configuration.

Compliance-ready documentation

Contracts, certifications, right-to-work records, and emergency contacts stored digitally per employee. Audit trail on every HR action.

🎨

Fully white-labelled per organisation

Your brand, your colours, your logo on every screen staff see. The platform carries your identity, not ours.

🛡️

HR can correct any shift manually. Every edit is logged with the reason and who made it. Nothing is ever deleted.

📩

Online recruitment & automated onboarding

Candidates apply via a branded form. One click to accept — the system creates their record and sends a personalised onboarding email automatically.

⚠️

Automated disciplinary management

Lateness warnings are issued automatically on a three-tier escalation ladder, with every notice logged on the staff portal. A complete disciplinary trail with no HR effort.

Problems Solved
What tyma replaces
Every row below is a real pain point reported by HR managers running hourly-paid or attendance-based teams.
❌ The Problem ✅ tyma Solution 📈 Business Impact
TIME FRAUD

Staff sign in for each other ("buddy punching") or claim hours they didn't work. No way to verify who was actually on site.
QR + STAFF ID

QR codes are site-specific and physically posted at the location. Staff must scan on-site and enter their personal staff ID. GPS capture adds a location audit layer.
COST SAVING

Eliminates ghost shifts and inflated timesheets. Businesses typically save 3–8% of their payroll wage bill.
SPREADSHEET CHAOS

Managers maintain attendance on Excel. Sheets get corrupted, emailed incorrectly, overwritten, or go missing entirely.
CENTRALISED DATABASE

Every clock event is stored in a secure cloud database the moment it happens. HR accesses live data from any browser. No spreadsheets. No version conflicts.
EFFICIENCY

HR time spent on attendance administration drops by an estimated 70%. One HR manager can handle a team 3× the size.
PAYROLL ERRORS

Hours are manually totalled from paper timesheets or WhatsApp photos. Rounding mistakes, missed shifts, and disputes are routine.
AUTOMATIC CALCULATION

Shift duration is calculated to the minute from clock-in and clock-out timestamps. HR exports a clean, accurate timesheet. No manual maths.
ACCURACY

Removes human error from payroll. Reduces disputed payments. Saves the average business 4–6 hours of payroll prep per week.
LATE ARRIVALS UNDETECTED

Supervisors don't always notice or record late arrivals. Chronic lateness goes undocumented and is difficult to manage in disciplinary proceedings.
PUNCTUALITY TRACKING

Every shift has a scheduled start time. tyma automatically flags late arrivals, calculates exact minutes late, and maintains a per-employee punctuality score over time.
PERFORMANCE

Gives HR documented evidence for performance reviews and disciplinary processes. Reduces chronic lateness culture within 60 days of deployment.
DISCIPLINARY ADMIN BURDEN

HR must manually track lateness patterns, draft formal warning letters, and remember to escalate to second or final warnings. Steps get missed, timelines slip, and cases collapse.
AUTOMATED ESCALATION

tyma identifies late staff every Monday and sends the correct warning automatically — informal reminder, second formal written warning, or final written notice — based on how many warnings have been issued that month. Every warning appears on the staff portal with colour-coded severity (green → amber → red).
RISK REDUCTION

Eliminates missed disciplinary steps. Provides a complete, timestamped, documented warning trail — legally defensible and audit-ready — with zero HR effort.
SLOW RECRUITMENT

Candidates apply by email or paper form. HR manually keys data, chases documents, and sends onboarding instructions by hand. New starters wait days before getting portal access.
ONLINE APPLICATION PIPELINE

Candidates apply via a branded public form, uploading SIA badge and right-to-work documents. HR manages a full review pipeline. One click to accept — the system auto-creates the staff record and sends a personalised onboarding email with portal access link.
SPEED

Reduces time-to-first-shift from days to hours. Eliminates manual data entry on new starters entirely. HR onboarding effort drops by an estimated 80%.
NO MOBILE VISIBILITY

Managers can't see who is on-shift without phoning the site or waiting for end-of-day reports. Remote operations are effectively blind.
LIVE DASHBOARD

HR dashboard shows who is currently clocked in, at which site, and for how long — updated in real time from any device.
CONTROL

Enables remote management of multi-site teams. Managers can respond to no-shows and understaffed sites within minutes, not hours.
COMPLIANCE GAPS

Contracts unsigned or lost. SIA licences expired unnoticed. Right-to-work checks not on file. HR scrambles during audits.
DIGITAL COMPLIANCE HUB

Contracts are digitally generated and stored per employee. SIA (or licence) expiry dates are tracked with 60-day and expired warnings. All documents centralised.
RISK REDUCTION

Eliminates compliance exposure from expired licences and missing documentation. Audit-ready at any time without manual preparation.
ONBOARDING FRICTION

New starters complete paper forms. HR manually enters data. Documents get lost. Staff wait weeks before their first shift.
SELF-SERVICE REGISTRATION

Staff complete a full digital registration form from their phone. HR reviews and approves with one click. Staff get instant access to their portal.
SPEED

Reduces time-to-first-shift from days to hours. HR no longer re-keys data. Onboarding error rate drops to near zero.
COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN

Important messages get lost in WhatsApp groups, missed emails, or verbal handovers. Urgent updates don't reach staff reliably.
IN-APP MESSAGING

HR sends messages directly to individual staff or all staff. Urgent messages appear as banners on the staff dashboard. Read receipts confirm delivery.
RELIABILITY

Critical operational updates reach 100% of staff through a channel they check daily. Reduces "I didn't know" incidents significantly.
HOLIDAY CHAOS

Holiday requests by text or email. HR loses track of who has approved what. Staff argue over balances. Understaffing happens by accident.
HOLIDAY MANAGEMENT

Staff submit holiday requests in-portal. HR approves or rejects with notes. Each employee's entitlement and remaining balance is tracked automatically.
PLANNING

HR has full visibility of upcoming absences. Reduces last-minute cover scrambles. Eliminates holiday balance disputes.
PASSWORD LOCKOUTS

Staff forget passwords and contact HR. HR resets manually, often via email chains. Takes hours. Blocks staff from accessing their portal.
SELF-SERVICE RESET

Staff verify their identity with email + date of birth and reset their own password in under 2 minutes — no HR involvement required.
EFFICIENCY

Eliminates a category of support request entirely. HR saves an estimated 30–60 minutes per week previously spent on account administration.

Alternative Model

Hybrid Pricing — Scale Precisely With Your Workforce

For organisations that prefer costs to move exactly in line with headcount, tyma offers a hybrid model combining a low monthly platform fee with a per-employee charge. As your workforce grows, so does the plan — and when it shrinks, so does the bill.

This model is ideal for businesses with variable or seasonal workforces where a fixed plan would mean overpaying in quieter months.

PLATFORM FEE
£39 – £99 / month
+ PER EMPLOYEE
£1.50 – £2.00 / user / month
── Example: 30 staff on Growth Hybrid ──
£69 platform + (30 × £1.75) = £121.50/mo
── Same team, quieter month at 18 staff ──
£69 platform + (18 × £1.75) = £100.50/mo
