Who's Working?
Worried your employees will forget to Clock In/Out? “Location Based Reminders” sends a reminder when employees arrive & leave the jobsite, saving time card mistakes while also helping new employees adjust to using an app. *We also have time based reminders (like an alarm clock) to further ensure you & your employee’s success.
Location-based coordinates stamp a location when someone clocks in/out or goes on break. Colored pins represent different actions; green where they clocked in, yellow for the start and end of a break, and red for clocked out
Tired of employees clocking in before they’ve arrived? Easy fix, use “Required Onsite” It won’t allow them to clock in if they aren’t inside the GEO FENCE.
Managing fire protection teams in the field is all too often an exercise in misguided trust. Overtime and idle workers can be some of the biggest cost run-ups on a job, but these are problems that can only be solved if you know where your workers are and what projects they’re completing. Time spent tracking employees down to a specific site, project, or material run is time that could have been better spent on the job.

FAQs about Fire Protection time tracking
We know privacy is important to you and especially to your employees so busybusy ONLY tracks GPS locations when an employee is clocked in. . Your privacy is important to busybusy too. That’s why you and your employees can rest easy knowing that busybusy only collects and records GPS data during the hours they are clocked in. So, no. We can’t help you find which bar you left your phone at Saturday night. 😂. But seriously, even if your employee has an accident and their spouse calls you as the owner asking where they are, please don’t call us because we don’t know. If they are not clocked in we have ZERO idea and we can’t access their location.
Absolutely. We designed our GPS settings to be customizable for each employee. Owners/admins can decide if GPS is set to “required”, on but “not required”, or “off”. If you change your mind, GPS can easily be turned on or off company wide or per employee.
busybusy takes battery optimization seriously. After all, what good is a mobile time-tracking app if it drains a phone’s battery? busybusy has been calculated to run on 500kb-1.5MB of data a day which is the same amount of power it takes to make 30-90 second phone call (or less time than it takes to call and wish your aunt happy birthday.) In other words, your employee’s phone battery will barely know we exist.
A great app optimizes battery life and minimizes data usage. Just how minimal is the data usage for busybusy? Math nerds and tech geeks at busybusy have crunched the numbers, and the busybusy app has been calculated to use about 500 kb of data a day. This is roughly equivalent to a 30 second YouTube video. That being said, if employees are uploading photos from the jobsite, this can increase their data usage. One medium photo (default setting) takes approx. 250 kb of data to upload. This means an employee could upload four photos while using the app, and busybusy’s data usage would equal roughly 1.5 MB of data per day or less than a single bathroom break worth of youtube videos. 📲 🚽 🧻
Of course! Customer support is free to everyone: employees, admins and owners, whether you are Free or Pro. You can contact us via email, phone or chat and we'll get back to you ASAP. The best part, our customer support staff are all industry professionals!
Si, lo tenemos! busybusy will automatically open in Spanish if an employee’s phone is configured for Spanish. And, our outstanding customer service has dedicated Spanish personnel to answer any questions or help with training.
One lesson we learned in kindergarten was to play nicely with others. That’s why busybusy integrates with other software systems you’re currently using like Quickbooks, Procore, Sage, Viewpoint, Foundation, ComputerEase, Explorer, ADP, Paychex, and many others. If you don’t see your software listed here, just ask us.
