How to create a clear employee attendance policy

Create attendance policies covering hours, lateness, early departure, exceptions and record review.

01

What should an attendance policy define?

A good policy explains working rules before disputes and connects working hours to expected employee actions.

  • Working hours or shift start and end times
  • Grace period, if any
  • How to check in and out
  • Handling late arrivals and early departures
  • How to request a correction
02

Make rules measurable

Define shift starts, grace periods and exceptions clearly so policy is applied consistently.

03

Review exceptions rather than every record

Focus on cases needing decisions, such as lateness, early departure and missing check-outs.

Turn your policy into a clear, trackable process

Hdoori turns attendance rules into records, reports and exceptions for administrators to review.
