Agriculture time and attendance for seasonal field crews.
Seasonal crews counted, fairly paid.
Face check-in on one shared phone per field that keeps working where there's no signal, so hundreds of seasonal workers are verified wherever they work.

Biometric time and attendance out in the field.
One phone, whole crew
The supervisor's phone runs the NCheck Admin app (€95 one-off per device), so a crew needs no fixed terminal in the field.
Prove the block they checked in at →Duplicate enrolments caught
On Premium, deduplication finds anyone enrolled more than once, so one person can't appear on the payroll twice.
Records workers trust
Every check-in is verified and location-stamped, and workers can see their own hours in the user portal, so a query about pay can be checked against the record.

Piece-rate crews in fields with no signal.
In many countries, workers paid by the piece must still earn at least the minimum wage for the hours they work, so verified hours matter even when pay is by the crate. The hard part is recording those hours in a field with no signal and a crew that changes every week.
| Through the season | How NCheck handles it |
|---|---|
| First morning | Each picker is enrolled with a photo on the supervisor's phone and checks in by face from then on. |
| Every shift | The phone recognises several faces at once, so the crew is checked in as it reaches the field. |
| Out of signal | On Standard and Premium, check-ins are stored on the device and sync when the phone is back in coverage. |
| Moving between fields | Each field can be its own location with a geofence (Standard and Premium), so hours land against the right block. |
| Pay day | The Total Work Hours report gives verified hours per worker as CSV or Excel for payroll. |
| End of season | Leavers' biometric data is removed with NCheck's deletion tools. |
A fruit grower takes on 60 pickers for a six-week harvest. Each check-in is stored on the supervisor's phone in the orchard and syncs at the packhouse each evening, ready for the weekly pay run.
Agriculture time and attendance at plantation scale.
Pantaleon, the Central American sugar producer, had a fingerprint system that often failed to read its field workers' fingerprints and couldn't run offline. Its field workers now check in by looking at a smartphone carried by their supervisor, with attendance captured offline and synced automatically.
“Before, traditional time & attendance meant a lot of work to synchronise reports. With NCheck we do it with just a few clicks.”

Agriculture time and attendance questions.
Do workers need their own smartphones?
No. One supervisor's phone or a tablet in the field vehicle checks in the whole crew. Permanent staff can also use the free Attend app on their own phones, which records GPS with every check-in.
Does face recognition work outdoors?
Yes. NCheck's face engine is tuned for real workplaces, including changing light and glasses, so check-in works in the field as well as at the farm office.
Can we see hours per field or per crew?
Yes. Each field can be set up as a location and each crew as a group, so hours can be reported by field and by crew before they go to payroll.
What if a worker doesn't want to use biometrics?
They can check in manually, or by RFID card or barcode on Standard and Premium, and their hours are recorded the same way.
