Use MyRec.com's membership feature with digital membership cards and facility access scans to keep a record of worker arrivals and departures at specific facilities and facility areas within your system. This is not tied to your third-party payroll, but it functions as a timecard punch system to report hours and locations. This is great for tracking volunteer hours, staff shifts, and even tutoring sessions for after-care.
