PieceWorker

PieceWorker was literally “born and raised on the farm”. We created the program in 1999 at the request of a single large vegetable grower in North Carolina (who now owns the company). Since then, it has collected millions of individual work records for hundreds of customers across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

The program allows you to collect hourly and piecework records using a combination of inexpensive handheld computers, electronic time clocks, and/or electronic scales. Collected data is downloaded to a desktop computer for validation, corrections, and consolidation. Valid records can then be exported to a file for import to any supported payroll accounting system (or to Microsoft Excel).

  • Collect data for an unlimited number of companies. Use only one company for all employees or use one for your packhouse, one for your year-round workers, one for each labor contractor that supplies you with workers, etc.   Read more...
  • Print employee IDs on a standard laser printer and laminate them yourself…or buy the optional photo ID printing kit to produce a weatherproof plastic ID card for each employee   Read more...
  • Optionally scan employee IDs in the field using small, inexpensive handheld computers to record hours or pieces worked…or connect wirelessly to an electronic scale when paying employees by weight.  Read more...
  • Optionally use one or more wall-mounted electronic time clocks to collect clock ins/outs on hourly jobs. Use a clock that scans the employee ID barcode, or eliminate “buddy punching” by using a biometric (fingerprint) clock.  Read more...
  • Collect data on up to 255 different jobs…and optionally collect additional data such as farm/field/block, work crew, etc.   Read more...
  • Download the collected data and quickly run reports to check employee productivity, total hours/units, etc. Check for and easily correct simple errors and optionally activate warnings that trap possible cheating attempts.   Read more...
  • Support for many payment methods: Options for processing data and paying employees include paying cash directly from PieceWorker or exporting processed data to Microsoft Excel or several popular payroll accounting systems, including our own Windows Accounting Made Simple.   Read more...
  • Optionally use PieceWorker Remote to collect data at distant sites and transmit the data via the internet to the central site for payroll processing
