Track smarter. Boost compliance. Slash payroll errors. 

Time and attendance software isn’t a “nice-to-have”—it’s a business-critical tool. Manual tracking, buddy punching, and inaccurate payroll can lead to serious consequences: compliance risks, time theft, frustrated employees, and costly errors. 

MP’s Time and Attendance solution solves these problems with modern features like mobile punching, geofencing, and real-time alerts—tailored to meet the unique needs of different industries. 

Let’s break it down.
