Attendance & Badging Module — Hours, allowances, compliance

Clock-ins, overtime, allowances. From the badge to the payslip, with no re-entry.

Manual entry, web Clock In/Out, or physical PoE-connected badging devices: your employees clock in however they want. Illizeo calculates overtime, night hours, weekend and holiday premiums, and allowances (meals, transport, on-call) in real time, and exports everything as payroll variables or raw CSV time entries.

Manual time-tracking spreadsheets, manual, manual.

Hours are recorded in a notebook or shared spreadsheet. Overtime is discovered at month-end. Meal and transport allowances get forgotten. Badging devices live in their own silo, disconnected from payroll. The controller re-enters everything by hand.

Vague overtime

No one knows who worked how many overtime hours this week. The 125% / 150% / 200% premiums are estimated, disputed, sometimes forgotten. Labor-claim risk grows.

Allowances never paid

Lunch, transport, meal vouchers, night premium, weekend on-call: no automatic trigger. The employee has to ask, the manager has to approve, payroll has to re-enter. Half of it falls through the cracks.

Badging devices isolated from payroll

You invested in badging devices, but their data stays in a separate system. Manual re-import, incompatible formats, unreconciled gaps: the badging device is no longer useful.

The Illizeo solution

An attendance module built for CH/FR compliance and payroll connection.

Configure your work profiles (39h CH, 35h FR, 40h flex), define your tiered overtime rules, your night ranges and your allowances. Your employees clock in manually, via web Clock In/Out, or via a physical PoE-connected badging device. Illizeo calculates everything in real time and sends the result to your payroll software.

  • 3 capture modes: manual entry, web Clock In/Out, fixed schedule (auto)
  • Compatible physical badging devices, powered and connected over PoE (Power over Ethernet)
  • Work profiles CH 39h, FR 35h, Flex 40h or custom (part-time included)
  • Tiered overtime (40-45h: 125%, 45h+: 150%) configurable per profile
  • Night hours with multiple ranges (22:00-00:00: 125%, 00:00-06:00: 150%)
  • Saturday, Sunday, holiday premiums (125% to 200% per contract)
  • Configurable auto break (20 min after 6h, 45 min after 9h)
  • Auto allowances: meals, transport, vouchers, night, on-call, overtime
  • On-call: planning, trigger, flat-rate or hourly allowance
  • Comp time bank: convert overtime into recovery days
  • Project tag on every clock-in: internal (analytical) or external (client) rebilling
  • Dual export: raw CSV time entries or consolidated payroll variables
3 capture modes

Manual, Clock In/Out, or PoE badging device. Your choice.

Adapt time capture to context: tertiary headquarters, industrial workshop, field team, remote work. The three modes coexist within the same company and can be combined on a single work profile.

Manual

Free entry

The employee enters their hours at the end of the day or weekly into the timesheet. Ideal for executive / day-rate profiles.

Clock In/Out

Real-time punch

Widget in the application header: Arrival, Break, Lunch, Departure. Second-precise timestamping, segments auto-created in the timesheet.

Fixed schedule

Auto schedule

No clocking. Contract hours (e.g. 8am-5pm) are created automatically every working day. Absences override them. Ideal for standard contracts.

Hardware compatible

Connect your existing PoE badging devices — or install new ones.

Illizeo connects to physical badging devices powered and connected over PoE (Power over Ethernet). A single network port powers the device and links it to the system. Clock-ins flow in real time, with no local install, no intermediate server.

  • Power and data over a single Ethernet cable (PoE 802.3af / at)
  • Clock-in via RFID badge, PIN code or QR code (depending on model)
  • Real-time synchronization of clock-ins into Illizeo
  • Offline degraded mode with auto catch-up when network returns
  • Multi-site: one device per workshop, branch or warehouse
  • We help you choose the hardware and handle installation

3 pillars. 1 source of truth per employee.

Clock-ins, regulatory calculations, allowances: all centralized in the employee’s monthly attendance sheet, month after month.

Work profiles

Standard CH 39h, Standard FR 35h, Flexible 40h, or custom-built. Each profile defines duration, working days, OT thresholds, night ranges and auto break.

  • 3 ready-to-use profiles
  • Unlimited custom profiles
  • Part-time (50%, 80%…)
  • Custom weekly schedule

Hour calculations

Tiered OT (125%, 150%, 200%), night hours per range, Saturday/Sunday/holidays with premiums. The AI auto-recognizes each hour type from the clock-ins.

  • Tiered overtime
  • Night with multiple ranges
  • Saturday, Sunday, holidays
  • Configurable auto break

Allowances & on-call

Meals, transport, vouchers, night premium, on-call allowance: automatic triggers on conditions (time, location, duration, schedule). Calculated and sent to payroll, hands-off.

  • Conditional meal allowance
  • Transport km or flat rate
  • On-call planning + trigger
  • Auto night premium
Native connections

Connected to Preliminary Salaries, Expense Reports, Projects and Absences.

No third-party connectors. Attendance counters feed pre-payroll directly, expense reports attach to the project, absences subtract contractual hours.

Native artificial intelligence

Powered by Claude: 8 AI features to make your attendance bulletproof.

Illizeo’s AI detects forgotten clock-ins, suggests corrections, alerts managers on anomalies, and summarizes the month at a glance.

Forgotten clock-in detection

Sophie clocked in but not out. The AI detects the anomaly the next morning, proposes a coherent departure time (based on her last 30 days) and notifies the manager.

Weekly OT alert

Above 48h on a 7-day rolling window, the AI alerts the manager and the employee: the CH/FR legal limit is approaching. Avoids disputes and hidden overtime.

Clock-in anomalies

Clock-in at 3am, 15 consecutive hours, missing break after 9h: the AI flags anomalies for manager verification. 1-click validation or adjustment.

Auto monthly summary

Each month-start, the AI sends the manager a per-employee summary: hours worked, OT, night, allowances. Bulk or line-by-line validation.

Auto-validate compliant entries

39h profile, full week without OT, breaks respected: auto-validated. The manager only handles exceptions, saving 80% of monthly validation time.

Real-time hour balance

OT counter, comp time bank, night counter: always up-to-date. The employee sees their balance, the manager sees the team’s.

OT → comp time suggestion

OT counter hits 35h? The AI suggests the employee convert into comp days, calculates the equivalence and triggers the request automatically.

Allowance verification

The AI cross-checks clock-ins, location and weekday, and triggers eligible allowances (meals, transport, vouchers). No oversight, no complaint.

Project tag on every badge punch

On every clock-in (Clock In/Out, PoE badging device, or manual entry), the employee can specify the project they’re working on. The hour is automatically consumed against the project budget and prepared for client (external) rebilling or inter-BU analytical (internal) allocation. No parallel timesheet re-entry.

3 steps. From the badge to the payslip.

01

The employee clocks in

Manually, via web Clock In/Out, or via PoE badging device. The arrival/break/departure segments are recorded in real time on their monthly timesheet.

3 seconds
02

Illizeo calculates

Tiered OT, night hours, Saturday/Sunday/holidays with premiums, auto breaks, triggered allowances: everything is computed automatically per the employee’s work profile.

real time
03

Payroll export in 1 click

2 modes: raw clock-ins (CSV one row per day) for audit, or consolidated payroll variables (OT, allowances, absences, monthly hour balance) ready to load into payroll.

1 click

Security, compliance & flexibility, by design.

Compliance: CH (CO/SECO) & FR (Labor Code)

Daily limits (10h max), minimum 11h rest between two days, mandatory break after 6h, legal night ranges: all preset by country. SECO or labor inspection audits made easy.

Clock-in audit trail

Every clock-in, every correction, every validation is logged by name with timestamp and source IP. History kept 5 years, exportable as a certified PDF for regulatory audit.

Multi-country & multi-entity

A team in Geneva on 39h, one in Lyon on 35h, one in Berlin on 40h: 3 profiles, 3 rule sets, 1 application. Group consolidation and separate payroll exports per entity.

European hosting & GDPR

Clock-in data hosted in European data centers certified ISO 27001. No transfer outside the EU. Encryption at-rest and in-transit. Compliant with GDPR and Swiss nFADP.

Measured ROI

−4 days/month on attendance HR processing.

For an SMB of 80 employees, Illizeo recovers on average 4 HR days/month spent re-entering clock-ins, checking OT and computing allowances. And makes payroll just as accurate.

Frequently asked questions

Which PoE badging devices are compatible with Illizeo?

Illizeo connects to physical badging devices powered and connected over PoE (Power over Ethernet 802.3af / at), with RFID reader, PIN code or QR code. We help you choose the hardware based on your context (workshop, branch, multi-site) and handle installation. If you already own badging devices, we check compatibility before deployment.

Can manual entry, Clock In/Out and badging device be combined for the same employee?

Yes. A single work profile can authorize several modes (e.g. web Clock In/Out from headquarters, PoE badging device in the workshop, manual entry while remote). Clock-ins accumulate in the same timesheet and the AI detects any duplicates.

How is overtime calculated for CH and FR?

For the Standard CH 39h profile: 40h/week threshold, tier 1 (40-45h) at 125%, tier 2 (45h+) at 150%. For the Standard FR 35h profile: 35h threshold, tiers (35-43h: 125%, 43-48h: 150%, 48h+: 200%). Everything is configurable per profile and per contract. Saturdays, Sundays and holidays can be counted as OT or as a separate premium.

How do automatic allowances work?

You define the allowances (meals, transport, vouchers, night premium, on-call) with their triggers (time, location, duration, schedule) and amounts (flat rate or hourly). The AI cross-references each clock-in with these rules and computes the eligible allowance in real time. The result goes into payroll variables, hands-off.

How does on-call mode work?

You define an on-call schedule (who is on call, which weekend, which time range). During on-call, a flat-rate allowance is paid. On trigger (intervention), a premium hourly rate applies. Everything is logged and sent to payroll automatically.

Can overtime be converted into comp days?

Yes. You enable the comp time bank counter (or time savings account) and authorize conversion from the OT, night, Saturday, Sunday or holiday counters. The employee can convert their balance into comp days via a request, approved by the manager. The equivalence (e.g. 8h = 1 day) is configurable.

Can each clock-in be attached to a project for rebilling?

Yes. On every clock-in — Clock In/Out, PoE badging device or manual entry — the employee can select the project they’re working on (the AI suggests the right one based on their habits). The hour is immediately consumed against the project budget and marked as billable or not. When a milestone fires, the attached hours are consolidated and sent to your billing software for client (external) rebilling or as an inter-BU (internal) analytical entry.

What’s the difference between raw clock-in export and payroll variables?

The raw clock-in export is a CSV one row per day with arrival, breaks, departure, total: useful for audit or import into a third-party tool. The payroll variables export is consolidated per month and per employee: regular hours, tiered OT, night, allowances, absences. Format ready to load into any payroll software (Sage, Cegid, Silae, ADP…).
