PAYSON, UT / ACCESS Newswire / July 16, 2026 / WorkMax, a construction time tracking solution and part of the Foundation Software product portfolio, has released a new article covering how geofencing technology helps contractors verify where their crews are working and when.

Contractors managing crews across multiple jobsites know how easily hours can get complicated to track - handwriting gets messy, buddies may punch in for each other, employees clock in while still driving through traffic.

"Where in the World Are Your Workers? Geofencing Explained" details how a geofence - a GPS-based virtual boundary around a jobsite - simplifies the entire clock in process by determining where a time tracking app can successfully log a time punch.

The article also highlights key considerations for contractors, including:

• How a geofence is set up around a jobsite and what happens when a worker's device enters or leaves the zone

• How location-verified time data supports certified payroll reporting and prevailing wage compliance on public projects

• How GPS-verified hours can tie directly to cost codes and project phases so job cost reports reflect field activity

• What to look for in a time tracking tool with geofencing, including offline capability, ease of use and integration with existing accounting or payroll systems

Contractors who read the full article will come away with a clearer picture of how geofencing turns field time tracking into reliable, verifiable data that flows straight into payroll and job costing.
