How we calculate

  • Padded clock-in time = crew × wage × (padded minutes ÷ 60) × 4.33 weeks/month
  • Manual payroll errors = crew × 160 hours/month × wage × error rate
  • ShiftPro plan is auto-selected by crew size — Crew ($49) up to 10, Site ($99) up to 25, Company ($199) above.
  • Estimates are CAD. Real-world results depend on crew honesty, payroll process, and how strictly you enforce GPS verification.
