Construction Workforce Management Software
SalaryBox is construction workforce management software built for the way real job sites run — daily-wage labourers, contract workers, rotating site crews, multi-site supervision, and strict statutory compliance. Capture attendance at the site gate with biometric devices, AI selfie punch-in, or GPS check-in with unlimited geofences. Build rosters for every crew, track hours across every site in real time, and run labour-compliant payroll with PF, ESI, PT, LWF, and TDS fully automated. One platform for every site, every worker, every payroll cycle.
Construction Sites Break Every Generic Workforce Tool
are typically lost to proxy attendance, buddy punching, and reconciliation errors.
A construction project runs on a workforce that most software wasn't built for — daily-wage labourers arriving at dawn, contract crews coming in through subcontractors, site supervisors working rotating shifts, and skilled operators moving between sites mid-week. Attendance is scattered across paper registers at the site gate, WhatsApp messages from supervisors, and muster rolls that nobody reconciles until it's time to cut wages. One missing punch and you're arguing with a subcontractor over 40 hours of disputed labour.
Add the compliance load — PF ECR files for each site, ESI contributions, state-specific Professional Tax, Labour Welfare Fund at different rates across states, and TDS calculations that change with every finance bill — and you have a payroll team drowning in spreadsheets every month-end. Meanwhile contractors lose money to proxy attendance, buddy punching, and workers clocking in from outside the site. Every error costs wages you shouldn't have paid and compliance penalties you can't afford.
Proxy Attendance and Buddy Punching at the Site Gate
Paper registers get signed for absent workers. Punch cards get shared. Time theft quietly adds 5–8% to monthly wages and nobody notices until year-end.
No Visibility Across Multiple Active Sites
Three sites, four subcontractors, hundreds of workers. Project managers have no single view of who is on site, working overtime, or missing entirely.
Daily-Wage + Contract + Monthly Payroll, All Mixed
Hourly masons, daily-wage helpers, monthly-paid supervisors, all under statutory rules for PF, ESI, PT, LWF, and TDS. Spreadsheets can't handle it.

Four Features That Change How You Manage Site Labour
From gate-entry attendance to final payroll — every capability built for the realities of a live construction site.
Five Attendance Modes for Every Kind of Site Worker
Construction sites don't have one type of worker, so one attendance mode can't serve them all. Daily-wage labourers with no smartphones punch in at a biometric device installed at the site gate. Site supervisors use AI Selfie Punch-In with face verification from their phones. Contract crews reporting to different blocks use QR Code Punch-In. Field engineers at remote sites use GPS attendance. Any spare tablet at the security cabin becomes an AI Attendance Kiosk — an automatic face-recognition punch-in station. Every mode captures a tamper-proof record with timestamp and location, and everything feeds into one unified log in real time — whether you have one site or fifty.
- Biometric device integration for gate-entry punch-in
- AI Selfie Punch-In with face verification for supervisors
- GPS Attendance for field engineers and site visitors
- QR Code Punch-In for contract labour and subcontractor crews

Stop Proxy Attendance With Site-Level Geofences
Construction wages leak through one of the oldest problems in the industry — workers punching in from outside the site, or one labourer signing the register for three. SalaryBox puts a virtual boundary around every project site with a customizable radius. Attendance is only accepted when the worker's device is physically inside the site. Fake GPS Blocking detects any location-spoofing app and rejects the check-in. Verified Device Punch-In locks each worker to an approved phone so someone else can't punch for them. Together, these three layers make proxy attendance effectively impossible — and contractors typically recover 5–8% of monthly wages that were quietly leaking to time theft.
- Unlimited geofences with customizable radius per project site
- Multi-location support from one workforce dashboard
- Fake GPS Blocking rejects location-spoofing apps
- Verified Device Punch-In restricts check-ins to approved phones

Build Rosters for Rotating Site Crews in Minutes
Construction crews move — one week on Site A, next week on Site B, night shift for the concrete pour. SalaryBox handles every rotation: create fixed or rotating shift schedules, manage multiple daily shifts, and build monthly rosters for crews and supervisors in minutes. Shift time limits automatically block early check-ins and late check-outs that silently inflate overtime costs. Mandatory working hours ensure half-days and short-working days are recorded correctly. Break tracking deducts unpaid break time from totals automatically. Every hour captured correctly means accurate wages, clean payroll reports, and no more Sunday-night disputes with subcontractors over disputed hours.
- Fixed and rotating shift patterns for every crew
- Monthly roster planning for multi-site workforces
- Shift time limits block early check-ins and late check-outs
- Break tracking with automatic unpaid-time deduction
