Time clockWhat it means, in plain English

A time clock is any device or app employees use to record the exact times they start and finish work. Modern versions range from wall-mounted kiosks to mobile apps with GPS, replacing the mechanical punch-card machines the name comes from. The punches it records feed timesheets, payroll and Working Time Regulations records, so its accuracy directly affects pay.
