When It Comes to Payroll, Simpler is Better
For Gordon Auto Parts
Losing decades of experience and knowledge as valuable employees reach retirement age is becoming a common problem for businesses across the United States. For companies both large and small, a retiring workforce can cause a knowledge/skill gap, and that’s just what Gordon Auto Parts in Racine, Wisconsin, experienced when their efficient payroll clerk retired ten years ago.
For many years, Gordon Auto Parts used a mechanical time clock that only recorded punches, “One of our office employees calculated the hours, enforced rules about punching in early or late, and manually entered attendance changes into the records while the time clock hummed quietly in the background,” stated Max Gordon, owner. “Then, she retired. And, we couldn’t find anyone who could quickly and accurately calculate the hours. Time keeping took forever and was loaded with mistakes.”
Max Gordon tried a variety of time keeping systems, testing several out, but they were complicated and prone to error. As he explained, “We shopped for an automated system and settled for one that not only did the time keeping, but produced the payroll and attendance reports as well. Each employee had a magnetic card for punching in and out. The system was a disaster at every step. If we kept the cards in a rack next to the unit, sometimes employees would grab the wrong card. When we asked them to keep their cards, they would forget them at home. Sometimes, they simply forgot to punch their cards and the inaccuracies didn’t come to light until they got their checks. Every pay period, employees lined up with complaints.”
A Simple Solution
Gordon Auto Parts was running out of options, so Max Gordon turned to his office supply representative for some guidance, and he suggested the Pyramid 4000 Calculating Time Recorder. “It was a revelation! We bought it immediately. It’s so simple to use and to make edits. We can enter details such as insurance, bonus pay, holidays, rate changes, right on the card and the supervisor initials it.” He continued, “Plus, the price was right. The Pyramid 4000 was so inexpensive and reliable. As soon as we installed it, things got back to normal.”
At Gordon Auto Parts there are no more payroll headaches so they can focus on their jobs and do what they do best, while the time recorder just hums quietly in the background.
Pyramid’s 4000 Calculating Time Recorder truly is time keeping made simple.
