If you clock in late, rounding may adjust your time forward or backward.
2. Clock-Out Rules:
You must clock out at the end of your shift
The system will automatically clock you out 10 minutes after your shift ends
All manual time entries are rounded to the nearest 15 minutes
Important:
If you manually clock out, you will:
Confirm (attest) your time
Have the ability to add a note if something is incorrect
If you are automatically clocked out:
You will not be able to attest

All time corrections must be documented for transparency and compliance.
5. Breaks and Lunches:
You must clock out for lunch when relieved from duty
Missed lunches will be flagged and must be confirmed

Frequently Asked Questions:
My time looks incorrect or rounded—what should I do?
If you manually clock out, use the note field to explain the issue.
If you cannot (e.g., auto clock-out), add an explanatory note or follow up via text or email.
I forgot to clock out for lunch—what should I do?
Report it when prompted via text or email so it can be documented and corrected.
Does Belfry track my location?
Belfry only tracks your location while you are clocked in. Once you clock out, location tracking stops. This is to ensure you are at the worksite at the time you clock in.
Does Belfry sell my data?
No. Belfry does not sell your personal data. Your information is used only for timekeeping/ system operations.
